I think we need two extra forums

1- Design principles
2- Using nature
I have 2 topics but cannot find where to put them
T doors in ancient Native American  or even Indian [ the continent] structures T doors were fitted.
Here is a discussion about them

As an old licensed architect, I see these as climate responsive doorways that might be good for preserving coolness inside a structure. Run a board across the two ledges and hang a standard blanket across it. It will form a low doorway that traps cool air (it sinks) inside the room while still allowing daylight inside. Allows carrying baskets of grain inside, elbow room, carrying a child, shoulder room, in an otherwise narrow opening. Warmer air is still allowed to flow out the top opening. As heat rises. Also allows more wall integrity of course in a somewhat fragile wall. The rock and plaster moderating the temperature swings. The floor and ceilings doing much the same. Depending on a person's legs, they could also climb or step over over the blanket to go in and out quickly, while children or small animals are restrained.  Chickens, small dogs. The high opening also allowing smoke out and ventilation in. Just a thought.
By the way, mica was sometimes used for windows.

Wind towers
These have been discussed before, but I can never find them
so more again
Cooling in the desert
A great Video of what was involved.

This thread about a T-door was placed in several forums, the primary forum was Natural building:

https://permies.com/t/207013/solve-mystery-door

We have a Wind forum where I found this thread:

https://permies.com/t/139052/Wind-power

And this thread was placed in the Permaculture forum:

https://permies.com/t/9741/permaculture/wind-collection

I do like the idea of 'natural patterns' ...

from https://permies.com/wiki/160660/forum

What do we need to build the forum?
a. a name - preferably one word that describes everything
b. a volunteer staff member to do the work (it takes about 20-40 hours)
c. a thread introducing the forum that we can link to at the top of the forum
d. some words to put at the top of the forum to describe it.
e. at least 50, but preferably 100 threads that would populate the new forum

If you think you can pull together enough threads, then we could see whether either suggestion would work as a new forum.

Questions to ask when making  new forum
https://permies.com/wiki/160660/forum

Looking at question one.

Using nature is https://permies.com/f/2/permaculture
There is a lot we can improve with that forum
Also https://permies.com/forums

Design principles.... this is a very broad idea and again, covers all of permies.  From your description https://permies.com/f/123/permaculture-design or https://permies.com/f/142/pdm


T door looks like a good fit for https://permies.com/f/5/natural-building
This includes design elements like passive heating and cooling.   Again, the forum needs some love with a description at the top.

Not sure about wind.  I would put that in natural building for the time being.
....

Question 2
It looks more like a need for a forum about passive heating and cooling house.   I wonder if we expand and improve  https://permies.com/f/82/passive-solar if it would work.  Worth exploring before moving on to question 3 on the list.

Made me courious, I had to look...
You put Wind towers in Passive Solar   https://permies.com/t/220447/Wind-towers
I put Venturi Effect air flow in  Low Tech  https://permies.com/t/208521/tech/Venturi-effect-air-flow-buildings
And Amy put T Doors in  Natural Building   https://permies.com/t/207013/solve-mystery-door

FWIW, the local tribes in the desert say the T doors are for exactly what you said... No mystery about it except to the "experts" :P

It's rare for topics to fit neatly into one forum. Human moderators do the best we can and things evolve.
