High tech tools for low tech climate control


Francis Kere Architecture took advantage of high tech software to provide low-cost low-tech climate control for an African school in the town of Gando. Using AutoCAD and Rhino, they designed the secondary school with a passive ventilation system. The design successfully dropped the indoor temperatures by 5 degrees Celsius.
