here is another project that came to mind that employs a performance-based roof. The higher areas of this design supposedly create stack ventilation. I dont know if this actually worked, but this may an interesting design idea for a tropical climate, which usually employs steep, very high roof ridges for stack ventilation.
On a general note, I have been meaning to organize a kick-off meeting for the project so all of you can meet, but i am still waiting to hear back from our client and the local architect about some important project details. So probably next week Tuesday afternoon we will meet, if that works for everyone...?
