In China, building energy consumption accounted for the total energy consumption increase from 17.7% in 2014 to 27.6% in 2018 which was approximately quadruple that of 17 years ago. From a global perspective, 20–40% of energy is consumed by buildings, and this value is as high as 45% in developed countries. With the continuous growth of the population and the rapid development of the economy, humankind’s demand for energy is increasing. These valuable experiences and design principles can provide references and guidelines for the long-term development of modern architecture not to only reduce energy consumption, but also to increase local social influence. In conclusion, this paper summarizes the features of the sustainable development of traditional dwellings learning from the principles obtained from the process of socio-environment responsive strategy analysis. The results show that traditional Tianshui dwellings are well adapted to local natural conditions and the social background, and that they meet both the physical and psychological needs of residents. The performance of traditional dwellings in the process of regional adaptation expounded and discussed based on seven elements under the conditions of two dimensions: (1) an objective regional response to the natural environment, namely, site selection, courtyard layout, orientation, structure, and envelop enclosure and (2) a subjective regional response to social environment, namely, spatial order, construction technology, and decorative arts. In this study, typical traditional Tianshui dwellings are selected as research objects, through the methods of field investigation, in-depth conversations, and on-site monitoring, in order to investigate the potential of traditional Tianshui dwellings reacting to natural conditions as well as social environment. The comprehensive and coordinated sustainable development of residential dwellings requires a response to the multidimensional environment.
