Climatised Architecture: Defining Thermal Comfort through Alpine Flora Zones

Part 1 Project 2017

Global warming is driving Alpine flora into extinction. In order to preserve the unique species from eradication, this project proposes a hosting platform in the form of Architecture. Alpine plants are accustomed to a series of different temperatures due to their placement at varying heights on a mountain. To accommodate the multiple Alpine species, a multi-temperate building is formed, using environmental systems to create varying temperatures suited to the plants.
