 security concerns, having too many open windows would invite excess heat into a

house. Instead, the openings should be positioned in a way that optimal airflow is
achieved.   
 Optimal ventilation. A well-designed tropical home lets airflow in such a way that,
rain or shine, its interior would remain comfortable. This is achieved through
strategically placed openings and partitions that allow air to move throughout the
house at just the right velocity and temperature. 
 Easy ventilation control. The beauty of houses with a tropical architectural design is
that the ventilation can be adjusted depending on the time of the year and what
direction the wind is blowing from. For example, if the wind is coming in from the
north, its velocity can be increased by simply opening the window on the opposite
side.   
 Green (or Green-inspired) surroundings. Last, but certainly not the least, is the
feature that is most closely associated with tropical architectural designs: Greenery. If
the house isn’t already in an area filled with lush, native vegetation (as is the case with
the model houses in Trava), it should at least have trees and plants within its radius
that facilitate the exceptional cooling properties of a tropical home.
