Passive cooling

The principle of canadian wells is to circulate the outside air in pipes buried at a depth where the ground temperature is almost stable.

As the climate is changing we need to adopt some passive cooling techniques to cool down our house not just to depend on mechanical cooling because it harms our nature. Having these kind of passive techniques can bring lots of changes.

It also happens to be impossibly chic and all-natural.

Passive cooling systems are a type of building design that uses natural processes to cool a building without the use of mechanical systems.

Project: Three Trees Location: Eagle Rock, California Large rocks squeezed into together by 'wood shelves' insulate the South face of the house. The rocks absorb the heat during the day lowering the solar gain. At night the rocks give heat back into into the air as the temperature outside drops. The rock wall and the desert climate work in concert to passively cool the house. Jeremy Levine Design www.jeremylevine.com
