Sinossi

Elevated Airflow Homes explores how raised architectural designs can revolutionize natural ventilation, particularly in tropical climates, leading to more sustainable and comfortable living. The book highlights the potential of elevated structures to reduce reliance on air conditioning, offering a tangible solution to minimize buildings' environmental impact. It investigates the physics of airflow around elevated structures, demonstrating how wind interacts with these designs to promote ventilation.

 
The book is divided into four parts, starting with the fundamentals of natural ventilation and the history of elevated buildings. It then delves into airflow physics with case studies, followed by design guidelines for architects and builders. The book culminates by discussing the broader implications on energy consumption and occupant well-being. 

 
Supported by CFD simulations and on-site measurements, the book uniquely combines scientific analysis with practical design advice. This book is a valuable resource for architects, designers, and homeowners interested in sustainable architecture and climate-responsive design. It emphasizes integrating traditional building techniques with modern design principles to create innovative and energy-efficient homes. By understanding airflow physics and passive design, readers can make informed decisions to enhance home comfort while reducing environmental impact.

    Love Queenie - Merle Oberon...

    Merle Oberon made history when she was announced as a nominee for the Best Actress Oscar in 1936. Her nomination marked the first time the Academy recognized a performer of color. Oberon, born to a South Asian mother and white father, broke through a racial barrier—but no one knew it. Oberon was "passing" for white. 
 
 
 
In the first biography of Oberon in more than forty years, Mayukh Sen draws on family interviews and untapped archival material to capture the life of an oft-forgotten talent. Born into poverty, Queenie Thompson dreamt of big-screen stardom. By sheer force of will, she immigrated to London in her teens and met film mogul Alexander Korda, who christened her "Merle Oberon." Her new identity was her ticket into Hollywood. When she was in her twenties, Oberon dazzled as Cathy in Wuthering Heights opposite Laurence Olivier. Against the backdrop of Hollywood's racially exclusionary Golden Age and the United States's hostile immigration policy towards South Asians in the twentieth century, Oberon rose to the highest echelons of the film-world elite. 
 
 
 
Tracing Oberon's story from her Indian roots to her final days surrounded by wealth and glamor, Sen questions the demands placed on stars in life and death. His compassionate, compelling chronicle illuminates troubling truths on race, gender, and power that still resonate today.
