Summary
Architectural chapter from the SEEM project on adding solar chimneys to existing buildings as visible, self-standing design elements that raise energy performance while helping regenerate the urban setting. The prototype's basic geometry is being developed through multidisciplinary work, starting from a case study on the south facade of the Benecon-Ars laboratory in Frignano.
