Ask AI: how does pre industrial revolution architecture reflect and consider climate

Pre-industrial revolution architecture was designed to take into account a variety of climate-specific factors. For example, buildings in more temperate climates were built with larger windows and lighter construction materials to allow for better air circulation and to maximize the use of natural light. In hotter climates, thick walls, large overhangs, and deep-set windows were common to provide shade and insulation from the heat. In colder climates, buildings were often constructed with materials that provided more insulation, such as stone or brick, and with larger fireplaces to provide warmth.
