520 |a Nature is dynamic with its own laws. Everything evolves with its dynamism and continues to evolve with the same laws. Knowingly or unknowingly humans are also a part of this evolution, and their art and architecture. Architecture is said to be sustainable when it performs its functions over the dynamics of environment and of users and their activities, providing psycho-physical-physiological comfort. Traditional architecture is a part of this architectural evolution. Ancient architects have unlatched the secrets to manipulate the built environment, passively to bring psycho-physical-physiological comfort, through the wise use of planning, construction techniques and materials, which may vary with respect to different regions. There is a necessity to explore more and study its patterns in activities, in materials and in spatial arrangement, and its response towards dynamic ecological environment. Traditional architecture is said to be sustainable over a time period, since it obviously failed to accommodate the changing demands of socio-cultural patterns, for example family size. The modern construction impacts are so high on the environment during construction as well as operation. A bird makes its nest within few days, with the resources within its reach, without creating much impact on environment. Astonishingly humans could never do that, even though they are said to be the most intelligent species, making their own tombs to live in future. Hence, there is a need to understand traditional architectural context, that how it was sustainable, and relate it with modern architectural context to evolve the factors that will affect the sustainability. A case of traditional Kerala architecture is taken for study to understand the context. The paper will make an attempt to understand and provide the factors which will affect the sustainability of architecture.
