A square wind-catcher on a Yazdi house. (image by Sue Roaf 1976) ‘The architect who builds a solar furnace and then introduces a vast refrigerating plant to make it habitable is underestimating the complexity of the problem and working below the proper standards of architecture.’ Hassan Fathy 1970.
One of the southerly solar stacks, formed in polished limestone and cast glass, our version of a ‘ventoso’. The vents have been opened in daylight, briefly, after a long negotiation, for the photographer, Peter Cook.
