The use of passive design of heritage buildings as an alternative indoor climate control for museum

Heritage buildings are known to be climate responsive, and its building materials were properly selected to attenuate exterior conditions. Many of these buildings were converted into museums, which need to have a stable indoor climate in order to safeguard valuable collections they housed. The chara...
