    There have been a few posts containing comments about "architecture".
    I thought it might be fun to show some examples and encourage others to do so and make comments.
    Here's pretty typical view from the road of a home with an Aussie in front.

    What I find curious about all these styles is that none of them appear to have any thought given to passive cooling.
    Original Filipino architecture was highly concerned with passive cooling.
    Elevated, high ceilings and taking advantage of the prevailing winds.
