Before Willis Carrier made air conditioning a commercial proposition in the 1920’s all theatres were naturally ventilated and passively cooled. The lower diagram shows why many actors dislike air conditioned theatres, they act against an ’on-shore’ breeze, the atmosphere is lost.
The Queens Building, the School of Engineering and Manufacture, De Montfort University, 105,000sq.ft. of naturally ventilated mechanical and electronics labs., classrooms, offices, shared research space and 2 amphitheatres.
