| Summary: | The natural harmony between people, houses, and the environment is frequently highlighted in studies on traditional architecture. Traditional Malay house architecture, for example, is designed in hot-humid regions to promote maximum thermal comfort with natural ventilation while minimizing dampness. However, further research is required to determine if the traditional house is a sustainable design that can still adapt to current climate conditions due to global warming's increased indoor environment. This paper intends to identify and discuss the thermal comfort assessment approach by implement empirical research through field measurement. The assessment involves physical measurements and a satisfaction survey-the data analysis using a statistical adaptive model, computer simulation, and comparative analysis. Lastly, the data is verified based on the ASHRAE Standard 55 and hypothesis-testing. The finding will contribute to aiding the stakeholders and designers to adaptthe traditional Malay house construction as an example of the best or alternative designs of climate-responsive architecture. Thus, the idea of producing a climate-responsive recommend simulation research. © 2022 Institute of Physics Publishing. All rights reserved.
