Abstract As the environmental impact of the built environment continues to grow, the architectural field has increasingly adopted technological innovations to promote sustainability. Integrating performance-based design (PBD) methodologies into architectural education helps cultivate professionals who can understand and apply the complex relationship between architecture and the environment. This study explores the role of climate metadata and PBD as essential decision-making tools in architectural design and examines methods for their integration into educational curricula. Grounded in environmental analysis tools and PBD principles, it reviews existing case studies to identify limitations and propose improved instructional frameworks. The research combines theoretical and historical instruction, hands-on training in environmental analysis and computational tools, and their application in real-world pilot projects. Student outcomes were analyzed based on project scale, design processes, and decision-making approaches. The findings highlight the effectiveness of PBD methodologies in architectural education and their potential for broader application. By establishing a framework for integrating climate metadata and performance-based approaches, this study provides a foundation for future advancements in architectural pedagogy, adaptable to diverse teaching environments and methodologies.
