Text details provided by architects. After crossing a dry wadi at this time of the year, we moved to the west of Dickel, near Buh Barre. The sun was slowly growing in the sky after a completely wiring night, and was hugging us with its torpor. Even though the summer season was not here, it was difficult to walk in May. Finding a stone hut, covered with a roof with a sheet metal, we stopped in the shade. The thin thick thickness of this sheet metal, we felt possible under the burning sun. Under its shadow, the temperature had fallen to 10 degrees, striking our skin without the rays of the sun or on our entire body.
As we went around the cabin, the eastern wind, which was slowly and continuously flowing, suddenly exploded an unheard freshness on this side of the walls.
We were standing there, sensitive to a little shade, for a little wind, considering the simple aspects of the climate, which moves the mass of air from the sea, which can naturally soften a climate, ai a building, provides a comfortable internal environment without energy if we carefully inspect them. And we investigated how to adapt this thinking in the construction of Joseph Kesale High School in Djibouti.
Pawan, light and shadow can sometimes allow partial self-sufficiency at certain primary purposes of architecture even in very difficult situations.
