Robust design requires the ventilation system to
work under a range of weather conditions. The
Ionica building Uses wind towers to drive the
natural ventilation. Depending on wind direction,
different doors open on windward and leeward
sides of the chimney. This wind-driven flow across
the top of the chimney creates suction. drawing
air from the atrium. The chimneys are arranged
a n a curved plan to avoid creating a wind ghadow
when the wind is along the building axis.

CASE STUDIES
The following two examples demonstrate how requirements for natural ventilation have been integrated
with other design issues.
