The courtyard, as one of the most important elements of indigenous architecture, has taken various forms in different climates by observing the principles of environmental compatibility. These features and differences can be considered criteria for climatic analysis of the central courtyard inindigenous houses in different climatesof anarea. The criteria are determined according to the common physical features of the samples, the influence of environmental conditions, and spatial organization. Therefore, the present study aims tophysically study the central courtyard and identify the influential hot-arid climate factors to provide a new perspective to achieve a conventional design for the inhabitants of this climate. The present study is fundamental-applied descriptive-analytical research. Focusing on the climatic and environmental role of the courtyard and its walls, twenty historical houses in Yazd city, which is located in the hot-arid climate zone (BWhs) of Iran, are selected as samples. The collected data are analyzed and presented indiagrams and tables using SPSS software. The results indicate that orientation and physical-climatic components are of great importance and can be used as effective factors in designing houses. Moreover, the best relationship between the length and width of a courtyard was obtained with three linear equations for designingcourtyards based on geometric proportions. Considering the results of the design, the significant effects of sustainable architecture can be perceived.
