In Kew Garden they based the new alpine house air conditioning on the way termite mounds control the internal temperature and humidity with out engines to provide power. It is all in the design being called the “labyrinth” cooling system.
“Incoming air is exposed to a large surface area of concrete by passing at low velocity down a 100-foot (30-meter) tunnel beneath the structure. The walls of the tunnel are cooled by night-time air, and they in turn cool down the hot outdoor supply air in the summer.”
