“…Not all research has conducted an economic evaluation for these developments despite its importance to homeowners (Mayhoub et al, 2019;Ingrao et al, 2016;Aktemur and Atikol, 2017;Salandin and Soler, 2018;Tejedor et al, 2017;Guillen et al, 2014;Asdrubali et al, 2014) and also the use of sustainable materials are not widely adopted. Many works were also conducted to improve building thermal performance by adding reflective coating and insulation layers but also without economic evaluation of these developments (Mohamed et al, 2016;Saber and Maref, 2019;Radhi et al, 2017;Ascione et al, 2018). On the other hand, adding a plant layer to building envelope systems has been tested which significantly improved building thermal performance during the summer season; however, the side effect of these solutions was recorded in the increase of the relative humidity (Nadia et al, 2013;Gagliano et al, 2015;Bevilacqua et al, 2015;Zhao et al, 2013;Tang and Zheng, 2019).…”
