All forms of vernacular architecture are built to meet specific needs, accommodating the values, economies and ways of life of the cultures that produce them.
•Vernacular architecture is a category of architecture, based on localized needs and construction material, and reflecting local traditions.

•One of the most significant influences on vernacular architecture is the macro climate of the area in which the building is constructed.
•Climatic influences on vernacular architecture are substantial and can be extremely complex.

•The man-made elements interact with the natural microclimate to determine the factors affecting comfort in the built environment: light, heat, wind, and humidity.

MATERIALS
•The type of structure and materials used for a dwelling vary depending on how permanent it is.
•Permanent dwellings often offer a greater degree of protection and shelter from the elements.
•Over time, dwellings' architecture may come to reflect a very specific geographical locale.

Environment and
materials:-
•The local environment and the construction materials it can provide governs many aspect of vernacular architecture.
•Areas rich in trees will develop a wooden vernacular, while areas without much wood may use mud or stone.

Influences on the vernacular
•Vernacular architecture is influenced by a great range of different aspects of human behavior and environment, leading to differing building forms for almost every different context; even neighboring villages may have subtly different approaches to the construction and use of their dwellings, even if they atfirst appear the same

On flat lands, the houses are generally made of mud or sun-baked bricks and then plastered inside out. •Bamboo is used for the construction of all parts of the home as it is flexible and resilient

Kachcha
•A kachcha is a building made of natural materials such as mud, grass, bamboo, thatch or sticks and is therefore a short-lived structure.•The advantage of a kachcha is that construction materials are cheap and easily available and relatively little labor is required.
Pakka
•A pakka is a structure made from materials resistant to wear, such as forms of stone or brick, clay tiles, metal or other durable materials, such structures are expensive to construct as the materials are costly and more labor is required.

Semi-pukka
•A combination of the kachcha and pukka style, the semi-pukka, has evolved as villagers have acquired the resources to add elements constructed of the durable materials characteristic of a pukka.
