agree  TargamaT team: ملائم لمختلف الأجواء
1 hr
  -> شكراً لك; إلا أن "الأجواء" قد لا توحي بالمعنى المطلوب هنا

disagree  Haytham Boles: Would you please provide reference(s) to support your answer, Noura? You mentioned that the design would be suitable for various/different weather conditions. The English word refers specifically to winter weather. We need to seek accuracy. Thank you.

  -> Dear Haytham, I added a reference. I found that some ref.s only mention winter weather (cold, wind, rain, etc.), which is also called "winterizing", while other do include sunlight "not exactly a winter element :)"
