\subsubsection{General Description}
Nestled near the majestic Alps, Geneva boasts a unique interplay between urban landscapes and the stunning Alpine range, shaping its climatic nuances. The city experiences a temperate climate with distinct seasonal variations influenced significantly by the proximity to the Alps.

During the summer, Geneva enjoys a delightful blend of warm temperatures averaging between 25-30 degrees Celsius. The Alpine foothills contribute to a pleasant cooling effect, offering respite from the summer heat. However, the proximity to the mountains can occasionally lead to sudden weather changes, including thunderstorms, due to the orographic effect—the phenomenon where the mountains force moist air to rise, condense, and form precipitation.

As winter descends upon the region, Geneva encounters mild yet chilly weather, with temperatures often hovering around 0-5 degrees Celsius. The protective barrier offered by the Alps shields the city from harsher cold spells and biting winds, moderating the climate and ensuring a relatively milder winter compared to nearby regions.

The presence of the Alps plays a crucial role in shaping Geneva's microclimate, affecting wind patterns, precipitation, and temperature fluctuations. Additionally, the scenic backdrop of the snow-capped peaks contributes to Geneva's picturesque charm, attracting visitors and residents alike to embrace the beauty of this harmonious coexistence between city life and the stunning mountainous terrain.







\subsection{Analysis of Genotype and Phenotype}

\subsubsection{Genotype Analysis}

\paragraph{Insulations}
In Geneva, insulation thickness for external walls ranges from 16 to 39 cm, with an average of approximately 25.65 cm. Roof insulation varies between 16 and 39 cm, averaging around 27.3 cm. Floor insulation ranges from 3 to 29 cm, with an average of 6.05 cm.

\paragraph{Glass Types}
Geneva's preference for glass types varies, with a significant number favoring type 4 and 5.

\paragraph{Louvers Count}
Louvers count varies from 0 to 8. The majority of individuals have a louvers count of 0, and there is a smaller cluster around 0.5. On average, the louvers count is close to 0.3.

\paragraph{Window-Wall-Ratio}
\begin{itemize}
\item \textit{\glsxtrshort{WWR} South:} The Window-Wall-Ratio on the south facade varies across individuals, ranging from 9\% to 81\%. The distribution reveals three clusters, with the majority falling into Low ratio (9\%-41\%), followed by Medium ratio (56\%-61\%), and a smaller group in High ratio (60\%-81\%). On average, the WWR\_S is approximately 44.95\%.
\item \textit{WWR North:} For the north facade, \glsxtrshort{WWR} values show a wider distribution. The clusters are more varied, with individuals in Low ratio (5\%-33\%), Medium ratio (6\%-33\%), and High ratio (70\%-70\%). The average WWR\_N is approximately 19.6\%.
\end{itemize}
