Daytime Cool, Warm in the Night

Cool air touches the skin when we entered the building from bamboo in the area ofSumedang, West Java. And then at 12 o'clock, and other areas around it was so hot.This is one "miracle"of bamboo buildings.

Bamboo, a natural substance that has pores and tubular cavity in it, has the ability to reduce heat. At the time of exposure to heat buildings during the day, the bamboo isreleasing cold air that is stored since last night. On the other hand, at night where theoutside air cools, it releases the stored heat from around noon.

The effect? During the day in the house cool at night was warm. This becomes most plausible explanation of why the process of shooting time is not flooded with sweat,even though we were in the area Jatinangor, Sumedang, West Java, which is quitehot.

The building that we present here is a cottage in Bandung Giri Gahana Golf & Resort.Its size is small enough may be an inspiration to those that have limited land and like a traditional atmosphere.
