One of the oldest existing houses of Bahrain, of which the beauty lies in the details.
In Bahrain, temperatures are not only high - they can also be low. Therefore, an ingenuous system was devised to bring refreshing air from outside and guide it through the house. A wind tower stands on top of the house and captures air currents from outside. Below, the currents can be let in or blocked according to the need of ventilation. A clever way of air conditioning before the invention of air conditioners. And very necessary in a country where high temperatures are really high.
