Wow! your SC and SHGC are pretty high, I guess it does not matter since I envision your project as having a microclimate and if there is a lot of heat gain so be it. I think you could use strategies such as the waterfall to create a mist and therefore cool the air inside, it's going to be important to create some sort of wind movement inside. I am currently working on getting a building LEED certified and the SC is 0.50 AND SHGC 0.19, at least that's what the energy model threw back at us, so we had to go to blinds and dark glass otherwise we would have not met ASHRAE 90.1. By the way, I am leaving you some comments on your previous blog.

Eddie,
Thanks Eddie for the comment, YES, you will find in teh plans and sections a water fall that goes all the way of the pavillion withing the studio spaces. that will create the mist and cool air. You made me think more about drawing an illustrative diagram for this mist process since teh waterfall is a major element inside my bubble.

Thanks again for your very helpful input and i am looking for more.

Best
Amr
