This issue is called thermal comfort, which at the moment of being executed will allow a fully functional environment. This will also generate physical, mental and social well- being.
This monograph aims to research concepts, elements and materials needed for the thermal comfort of an environment, such that, the research leads us to shape a proposal which might be into the climatic parameters of the city of Cuenca.
