Abstract
Microclimate comprehension of building provide data about ambient architecture, because the role of climatology is very important in architectural design development. This paper deals with ambient architecture in tropical and humid region, the investigation of natural ventilation efficiency in traditional architecture in Indonesia. Investigation was carried out with comparative method of architectural opus in Java Island. It is selected on historical basis, started from Islam proselytization period until the presence of architectural performance that has been developing up to now.
