The diagrams below show some principles of house design for cool and for warm climates.

Answer:-

The diagrams illustrate the layout of houses for the cool and warm temperature.

 The most noticeable changes are seen in the usage of material in the roof and walls of house. The roof in the cool climate is high angled while in hot climate, it is triangular in shape with overhangs on both sides. Entire house in the warm climate is constructed with thermal building material surrounded by insulation to keep the house warm buy storing heat inside it while, reflective roof material and insulation made the roof of house of other climate which also overhangs from both the sides. 

The other difference is in the design and number of windows as only one window is constructed in warm climate house that also in the direction of sun to get maximum sun rays in the house. While, warm climate homes have two windows opposite to each other under the roof shades. These are closed and covered in the day time but opened at night to allow air to pass through the house and cool it naturally.
