Current studies have discussed sustainable design issues on a broad range of scales from landscape planning to building design. Climate responsive design has addressed some of these issues in terms of modifying the indoor and outdoor environment; however, few studies have discussed how to modify the microclimate in a home environment to optimize user patterns. Therefore, a microclimatic design process is needed to optimize the user patterns within existing design strategies. This research first reviewed the literature that is relevant to microclimate, sustainable design and pattern language. Second, a survey was conducted to investigate the user patterns of urban professionals in southern Ontario suburban homes. Third, the relationship between microclimate and user patterns was explored. This relationship indicated that microclimatic pattern did not match user pattern in existing houses, and that most users did not consciously consider microclimate. Based on the survey findings, design guidelines were set to optimize user patterns; three prototypical models were illustrated for utilization in applications. This research is intended to help professionals and users integrate and understand microclimate and user patterns to create an energy efficient, healthy and comfortable living environment.
