The building's curvaceous supporting arches, constructed from local brick, are designed to capture the wind and channel air into the building. During the hottest summer months, this system will be supported by electric fans and water misting to cool the air before it circulates within the structure. When the wind is not blowing, the hollow arched structures will naturally create a chimney effect, allowing warmer air to escape through the openings at the tOP of each arch. This clever design principle, known as the stack effect, promotes ventilation throughout the building and reduces the need for artificial cooling. The arches will also provide a unique visual feature, adding to the building's aesthetic appeal.
