claimThe authors of 'Monsoon as Method' (Lindsay Bremner, Beth Cullen, Christina Geros, Harshavardhan Bhat, Anthony Powis, John Cook, and Tom Benson) argue that climate is materially and spatially active in shaping urban politics, ecologies, infrastructures, buildings, and bodies, rather than being an inert backdrop to urban life.
referenceThe book 'Thermodynamic Interactions' by Javier Garcia-German is structured into three blocks: Territorial Atmospheres, which covers the interaction between the environment and built structures; Material Atmospheres, which covers the interaction between a building and the climate it generates; and Physiological Atmospheres, which covers the interaction between indoor ambient conditions and the physiological and psychological effects on human beings.
