The views, publications and research related to building design and climate change are reviewed in generic terms at the outset of this paper in order to identify a number of questions and potential research avenues. In particular, the links between the roles of building design and its implications for occupant behaviour are addressed in the context of the environmental performance of buildings and climate change. The emphasis is on the integration of adaptation with energy-efficient design, both in terms of how buildings can be designed to increase their adaptive potential and of the significance of occupant adaptive opportunities. L'auteur passe en revue, en termes generiques, les opinions, les publications et les recherches se rapportant a la conception des ba timents et aux changements climatiques afin de degager un certain nombre de questions et d'axes de recherche possibles. Il analyse notamment les liens entre les ro les des concepteurs de ba timents et leurs incidences sur le comportement des occupants dans le contexte de la performance environnementale des ba timents et des changements climatiques. L'accent est mis sur l'integration des methodes d'adaptation a des concepts a haut rendement energetique tant en termes de conception des ba timents pour qu'ils soient mieux adaptes que de signification des possibilites d'adaptation des occupants. |
