\nHomes cooled by water don\u2019t really raise an eyebrow anymore. But this home doesn\u2019t use water in its cooling ducts or air coolers. It uses a whole pond to keep the interiors cool! This concept by Singapore-based Wallflower Architecture + Design is indeed extraordinary. Picture this. The main living room and study were located in a second-storey pavilion, while living pavilion is located above and can be accessed by a spiral staircase. A dark, reflecting pond surrounds this pavilion and thermally insulates the dining, bedrooms and family spaces underneath. The pond also helps regulate the temperature swings inside the living space below.<\/p>\n
\nUsing a water body on the roof to keep the sun\u2019s heat out has never been used before. This does feel like living under a pond after all. but then again, water needs to be conserved too!
