Is there a specific school of design (or something I can Google) about low tech architecture designed for high temperatures?
I live in Phoenix and while I’m sure this wind catcher technology would help in the months leading up to and following summer, having a 110° pushed through a house doesn’t sound optimal. I am very interested in the field though! Maybe there’s something that would work even here.
I suppose The Barefoot Architect by Johan van Lengen[0] is a nice introduction to low-tech solutions for enthusiasts. The caveat is that I loved reading the ideas in it but never got around to try any of them, so I can't vouch for how it works out in practice.
