Desert Shed
Architect : Lloyd Russel
Location: Pioneertown, California
It is a modern and simple solution to the villa placed in a hot region. Most of the solar radiations are reflected by the canopy and rest is absorbed.
It also acts as a wind buffer by creating an effective cooling mechanism as shown in the figure above and thus, keeps the shade cool and fresh due to the continuous wind flow.
The material of this shed will last forever and can be recycled and thus it is sustainable.
It has been voted as one of the 12 effective and sustainable shading devices.
