"Crossdraft" Meaning

A crossdraft is a harmful or unpleasant draft of air that blows from one side of a room or building to the other, often caused by a window or door being opened or a gap in the walls or floor. It can be distracting, uncomfortable, and even affect the occupant's ability to focus or work. In architecture, crossdrafts are often minimized or eliminated through careful design, insulation, and craftsmanship.
