Abstract
The biometeorological architecture is defined as a study area which treats with the correlation between a human and the environment based on the biometeorology, clarifying the real state of architecture, searching the design method of architecture, and studying the whole architecture. The object of the biometeorological architecture is the environmental space design which is the technical method designing the environmental space suitable to humans in real form, keeping the fitting state. The design target of the environmental space design is the occupied environmental temperature which is the temperature surrounding the human in the environmental space based on the view point that he is on the time continuing state following by his behaviour. The evaluation of the environment is made from both points of the security and the comfortability which are introduced based on the fundamental principle of the ecology. Although the security and the comfortability are mutually compliment, the estimation of the security is superior to the comfortability. Some important discussion on the death rate as the measure of the lowest level of the security is made. The analysis of the occupied environmental temperature makes it possible indicating some problem on the direction of the research about the biometeorological architecture.
