摘要：

The paper discusses energy conservation and climatic design techniques that can be implemented in the single-family houses of Kuwait to reverse the current trend of constructing energy wasteful buildings. A comparison is made between the indigenous houses of Kuwait, which existed before the discovery of oil, and the modern houses. Simple recommendations are presented which will result in consequential energy savings while preserving comfort.
