None of that specifically but read: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windcatcher https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windcatcher I realized that the cupola on my 1840's house growing up, this was it's function. Wind pulls air through, which pulls air up into the attic, which cools the first and second floors. Then read The Timeless Way of Building and perhaps A Pattern Language Then Get Your House Right, or a condensed (...in a way) version is Drawing for Architecture by Krier. Hmm there are probably others I cannot recall right now, but those are a great start.
