ecooler, the project by Mey and Boaz Kahn, is a sort of system of tiles connected via fittings creating a cooling grid that works by evaporating the water.
The aesthetic of the project is that of one of the two reference points of the Middle Eastern tradition used in this project: the Mashrabiya, an architectural element that acts as a mediator between the inside and the outside. In the ECOoler, the Mashrabiya is modeled and transformed into a system of pipes that takes inspiration from another important element of Middle Eastern tradition: the Jara.
The Jara is a jug that contains the cooling water, it works by evaporation of the water that filters through the clay.
