Louvers - controlled air flow
This diagram displays the traditional louver mechanism pivoted with a vertical plane. the plane remains vertical at all possible positions of the louver. the air flow and dust can be controlled with simple mechanism. Jaalis work best for the vertical plane (personnel choice), though plastic or glass can get a modern touch to the facade. Jaali can set diffused light patterns inside. The rhythmic play of light and shadows can set various moods.

this is 14th century concept. come up with something new.
ReplyDeleteI tried to use the old concept and develop a system where one can control the air flow and also create a play in the facade with the help of vertical panels. This might bring a variation in the facade, which otherwise is a monotonous louvered facade.
