All aspects of human life are related to environment and climate. The climate in many cases of human life has a significant impact, including architecture, food, clothing, customs and traditions. Undoubtedly, environmental comfort in built environment influenced by environmental and climatical conditions. Therefore, the man was forced to recognize the climatic conditions of their environment in order to use its facilities and dealing with it and confronting with it’s difficult to fit. Now a day, the importance in the study of climate and its emphasis in architecture, led to studies and research in this field. This article aims to understand the principles of climatical and sustainable architecture houses in Ahwaz and its purpose is to extract repeatable features to achieve the goals of sustainable architecture that are used on them. By understanding the applicability of the extracted values that can be found in the architecture of the past, we can achieve the kind of architecture that works as good as the previous architecture and responders the needs of today’s human. In this paper, examined the architectural climatical elements of residential buildings, Understanding the principles of design in warm and humid climate as the climate prevailing in this city, Introducing ten house of Ahwaz and finally, examined the hot and humid climatic architecture’s principles in samples is discussed. For the purpose of this research, describe-analyze method and library studies and visits samples was used.
