What is the name of this type of vent?

Hi Architect forum,

I am looking for help identifying the architectural term for this type of hinged vent so I can research details for it.

Typically they are located next to a large fixed window and are opaque. 

Here is an example from a nice project, Cabane de Moiry

Not sure that has a name specifically

Sometimes called a trickle vent when related to a natural ventilation strategy…either manual or damper actuated

Where is that? Looks like a refugio?
