2. Research Question(s):
1. What is thermal comfort?
- What is the main factor affecting thermal comfort?
2. What is the properties of each natural building materials?
3. How does each of the natural building materials help to achieve thermal
comfort?
4. How does the application of each natural building materials affect temperature
and humidity?
Summary ofthetopic (300words):
Materialityisoneoftheimportantpartin designinga building.With applying naturalbuilding
materials,itcan createadifferentfeeling andqualityofspace.Besidesthat,italso can help to
