It´s a proven fact that the earth’s temperature has notably risen in the last decades due to climate change. This has been especially noticeable in the Spanish region, known for its high levels of solar incidence. This makes it nearly impossible to enjoy outside time during the summer, to the point that most people don’t even leave their houses until dawn in some areas. The goal of this project is to develop a system that will generate liveable spaces in the midst of a warm environment. A cloud-like portable device that will be able to use a nearly infinite resource -sunlight- to generate coldness.
