Sürdürülebilirlikle İlişkili Bir Yerel Mimari Çalışması; Kuzey Nijerya Örneği

Öz

Sürdürülebilirlik kavramı yıllar geçtikçe çevreyi ve ekonomiyi daha fazla çöküşten korumak için mimarların, tasarımcıların, planlamacıların ve paydaşların ilgi gösterdiği önemli bir konu haline geldi. Çevrenin korunmasında, halk için barınma ve barınma sağlarken sürdürülebilir düşüncelerin uygulamaya konulmasını sağlamak için özen gösterilmelidir. Günümüzde pek çok insan yerel mimariyi arkaik olarak görüyor ve yerel mimarinin sürdürülebilirlikle ilgili önemli tepkisini ihmal ediyor. Yerel mimarinin yeri, çevre dostu, uygun maliyetli ve minimal modern teknolojiyi kullanan, ancak kullanıcılarının iyiliği için gerekli termal konforu sağlayan bu temel sürdürülebilir hususlardan bazılarını sağlıyor gibi görünmektedir. Bu araştırma çalışmasında, Kuzey Nijerya'daki yerel mimari, nitel araştırma yaklaşımı, ilgili literatür araştırması dahil edilerek analiz edildi ve sürdürülebilir önlemlerin vurgulanmasıyla sonuçlandı ve bu önlemlerin modern konut ortamına dahil edilebilmesi için çeşitli yollar önerildi. Halkın kültürünün, ekonomisinin ve ikliminin sürdürülebilirliği. Çevre, din ve kültür, Kuzey Nijerya'nın yerel mimarisine önemli katkılar olarak belirlendi.

In preserving the environment, care must be taken to ensure that sustainable considerations are put in place while providing housing and shelter for the populace. Many people today see vernacular architecture as archaic and neglect the significant response of vernacular architecture with regards to sustainability. The place of vernacular architecture seems to provide some of these basic sustainable considerations that are eco-friendly, cost effective and employs the use minimal modern technology yet providing the necessary thermal comfort for the wellbeing of its users.
