Heat Chimneys

The heat chimney is derived from a historic Middle Eastern form of natural cooling.

Example: San Rafael

This sleeping loft is actually a third level to the house, with louvered vents to the double height interior open space below. During the heat of the day the open windows here create a draft pulling hot air up and out of the house.
