Figure 8 Example of a traditional hut in force among the Bamiléké. Source Testa Olivier,2011 The family hut is not really one. The rooms are generally numerous and are intended to accommodate an entire family. Very functional, they are equipped with an attic to store cereals. The steep thatched roof and raised foundations provide a safe way to endure the harsh rainy season in the Western Province.

ARPT Algeri (2013) Mario Cucinella - environmental strategies — summer. Drawing © MCA. The project is inspired by the Algerian desert landscape where the dunes appear as ‘natural’ buildings, constructed by wind and sand. An analysis of the urban fabric, the location of the lot along a thoroughfare of great significance and above all the new urban park to overlooking Bab Ezzouar, offer the opportunity to create a highly visible and symbolic building. An institutional building providing a new home for ARPT should serve as a point of reference within its neighborhood and a city where tradition and modernity merge to create new symbolic and cultural scenarios.

Centre for Sustainable Energy Technologies (CSET, 2006-2008, Ningbo, China) by MCA Figure 16 microclimate during summer. The angles and materials of the southern part of the building were designed to pre-heat ventilation air in winter. The external air inlets are located on the ground level, at the bottom of the double skin facade so that during sunny days the air is naturally heated by the passive solar gains. After reaching the appropriate temperature the air is distributed in the edifice. Other air inlets are situated in the ground, outside the building. The incoming air is pre-heated by the earth-to-air heat exchanger. Further heating is provided by the geothermal heat pump, which is powered by energy from the photovoltaic panels. The air heating system is integrated with the radiant air-conditioning ceiling. The radiating coils embedded in the floors are activated when it is necessary to heat ventilation air. The heat is stored by the concrete ceiling slabs and released gradually to provide proper thermal comfort during the day. The northern facade is well insulated to avoid heat loss during the cold season of the year. The heat transfer coefficient of the opaque walls is 0,25 W/m°K and of transparent parts 1,2 W/m’K.
