The Climate Design Project explores the forgotten role of interior decoration as a tool for thermal regulation. Before the era of fossil fuels, decorating a space also meant protecting oneself from the cold, limiting drafts, and playing with light and materials to enhance comfort.
Through an experimental approach, the Interior Architecture students of HEAD revisited these traditional skills by developing prototypes and devices that utilise the thermal properties of materials: convection, conduction, emissivity, inertia, effusivity, evaporation, radiation...
Their work questions the relationship between space, material, and climate at the scale of interior design, with both contemporary and sustainable perspectives.
