I am a product designer, so I’m like architects lesser known cousin haha, but that meant when I traveled back to my hometown and then got hit with a 5 day power outage, that curiosity was reignited as by day two I was almost willing to brave the mosquitos to sleep on the porch. I would love to know more about how people handled the heat and humidity historically but am struggling to find information. I was able to find some info on Indian architecture but again most of it was focused on the slightly more arid parts although it was a lot closer to what I was looking for. So if you have and knowledge about this topic, or just want to share stuff about something similar involving environmental factors impacting architecture regardless of what climate, I would be delighted! Every time it happens I worry about there being a death toll.
