At a glance, the honeycomb structure of terracotta tubes looks more like large-scale work of handmade sculpture than a highly designed air conditioner. Developed for an electronics factory in New Delhi, this evaporative cooling device requires no power to lower interior temperatures by as much as 26 degrees Fahrenheit. Designed by Ant Studio for DEKI Electronics in

Thankam Kumaran on Instagram: "Why I do not use Air conditioner? Air conditioners help cool indoor spaces by expelling hot air and greenhouse gases keeping a loop of hot air If you stand outside your room where AC expels heat you will not be able to tolerate the heat expelled by AC . We all are burning the planet And are asking why temperatures are rising. Hence, I chose to use the natural way of cooling my home and body. Be the change you want to see Using khus curtains(for dry…

Indian architecture firm Ant Studio has developed a low-energy air conditioner (AC) that uses water and terracotta pots to cool hot air.

Wind catchers — an ancient technique to beat the heat — could help us once more in our quest for emissions-free cooling.

Smoke Scream! STIR selects design projects, people and practices that aim to kill the smoke with smart innovation.

This terra cotta pot looks like an ordinary vase, but it is actually a small air conditioner that cools a room using the natural process of evaporation.

Engineers from two American universities developed a kind of natural air conditioner with almost no consumption of electricity. The study published on Friday in the journal Joule described the innovative water-cooling system capable of providing continuous day-and-night radiative cooling for structures. The low-cost hybrid organic-inorganic cooling material is scaled into a roughly 13-square-meter array, small enough to fit on most rooftops, according to the study. The advance could increase…
