Yemen is one of countries that lie in the hot arid zone near the equator. In spite of the appropriateness of its traditional architecture to this type of climate, the new buildings suffer a lot of problems due to neglecting the climate issue. Large areas of glass have been adopted in many new building with no devices for avoiding high solar radiation. The present study is done of cases on exploring the concepts behind the traditional solutions. It presents examples of traditional architecture in Mukalla. It directs the attention of the important of adopting climatic design approach to avoid the harm effect of intense radiation, and at the same time make are of the abundance of solar radiation.
