ABSTRACT
Given the current climate constraints, intelligent construction must first be sustainable before it is connected. Sustainability refers here to a design mode that promotes the comfort of the inhabitant on the one hand and energy saving on the other. Bioclimatic approach in architecture is precisely sustainable approach to design that perfectly meets the concern of energy and comfort. However, building sustainably spaces has an extra cost. This extra cost constitutes a constraint to the implementation of this approach. The purpose of the paper is to investigate the unavoidable feasibility connection between a regulation encouraging sustainable building design and a financial appropriate approach. First, we will question the notion of comfort and energy saving through the bioclimatic approach in architecture, and then we will outline the different measures inspired from bioclimatic practices that were adopted by the Moroccan regulation as a sustainable building design strategy. An analysis of some experienced projects will provide an insightful vision of the willingness to demonstrate the effectiveness of these regulation measures and implement sustainable governance development. Three social housing projects: Al Karama, Jacaranda, Al Ouroud and the project of new city « Lakhyayta » are chosen to explore the experienced practices. Since the extra cost of the majority of those demonstration projects have been supported by co-financing programs, the efficiency of such regulation that promotes sustainable practices cannot be reflected without an effective financial support. This exploration will undeniably lead us to question the actions that could be taken to create favorable conditions to design sustainably and think about considerations that could encourage effective governance for promoting a kind of proactive urban design.
