Long before electricity, air conditioning was invented. As modern man tries to find a way to reduce CO₂, ancients have much to teach us.
In southern China, skywells(天井) have been in use since the Ming Dynasty in the 14th century. They were designed to cool the inside space, collect rainwater and prevent strong sunlight, providing people with a comfortable place to eat, read, and spend time with family.
Although a skywell’s size and design differ from place to place, it is almost always a rectangle(长方形) hugged by rooms on four sides. This kind of design helps a lot in cooling the inside space at the time when there’s no air-conditioner. When wind blows across a skywell house, it is often cooler and heavier than the indoor air. The breeze enters the indoor space through the opening, travels down the walls and then makes the warmer air go up and out of the opening.
Although skywell buildings have a history of hundreds of years in China, people forgot them due to the rise of modern buildings. Over the past twenty years, however, more and more buildings have been using skywells in their design. In Jinan, Shandong, there is an 18-story tower with a huge skywell in the middle. The bathrooms, meeting rooms and elevators are all located on inside walls, providing better temperature control.
Besides its practical uses, skywells also have great cultural values. Yu Youhong, 55, has spent more than 30 years repairing skywell homes in Wuyuan of Jiangxi Province. One of the skywell homes that Yu repaired is a 300-year-old house, which was turned into a 14-room hotel. While modern technology was used to improve the old building, the skywell in it was kept as it was before so that the old charm wouldn’t be lost. This project won a RED DOT design award.
As an important part of traditional Chinese houses, and being in line with the government initiative (倡议) for greener buildings, skywells will play a greater role in our life.
