these houses are cool looking but have no insulation, plus extremely expensive materials. carpenters could have done better than intellects.

The long plywood house with tiny holes for windows was a sweat box when I was in it, and that was in the evening with cool weather.

The man who said we should live in small houses. Okay but how small is your house?

This is a very interesting exhibition but when it comes to climate control more details need to be in the works. It’s more of an idealized concept.

I’d imagine there was a pretty high thermal load from the exhibition goers.

We cooled the Cellophane House with three ultra light fans that created a chimney at the top designed with Ove Arup it was a pain to convince the MoMA we had to use a mechanical system
