This simple design choice will keep your interiors cool
Cooling down your interiors can be as expensive as heating them?
It may sounds like an obvious solution but opening windows at opposing ends or sides of a space instantly relieves a stuffy interior. That's why you should consider airflow and ventilation when you're building or renovating. Cross ventilation has been around forever and is still the greenest cooling strategy around. All that’s needed is a light breeze. This modern extension by Porter Architects is an excellent case in point. Here, the cross ventilation is underpinned by a linear slot diffuser cooling system.
