Through this event, researchers expect to develop an assessment tool to evaluate sustainable building characteristics focused in a bioclimatic approach. Identify climate zones allow a realistic interpretation of the bioclimatic concepts analyzed. Five case studies were expounded to the experts’ judgment in order to ascertain design strategies needed in early stages of building planning. The start points of this research process are the concepts that arise from the professional and academic experiences of the participants. As a result of this seminar a validation proposal is reached, which allows the corroboration of the research findings.</span></p><p><strong><span lang="EN-US">Keywords:</span></strong><span lang="EN-US"> Sustainable Architecture, Architectural Design, Bioclimatic Architecture, Climatic Zones.</span></p>}, number={9}, journal={Estoa.
