Windtowers have, for many, come to serve as a symbol of the lower Gulf's cultural heritage. These dramatic architectural features, typically found in the cour tyard houses of notable merchant families up and down the Gulf, are not only strikingly beautiful, but also highly functional - capturing the wind to achieve a natural form of air conditioning. Building on original research and a detailed architectural survey undertaken by the authors in Dubai between 1969 and 1974, Windtower includes their latest historical, social and technical research to provide a substantial book which offers a unique insight into the way of life of the inhabitants, their culture and history.
