Preparing for the Heat Wave | Cooling You Can Feel

The future of European cities may be hiding in the Caribbean.

As heat waves become the new normal, this film explores places where climate has always shaped the way people live, build, and gather. Through wind, shade, vegetation, and thoughtful design, it reveals a different approach to comfort - one that works with nature instead of against it.

What feels tropical today may become essential in Germany tomorrow.

A film about climate. About people. And about designing places that remain livable in a hotter world.

Among the strategies featured are Transsolar's Dry Mist systems, creating refreshing microclimates in public spaces. Even watching the scenes, one can almost feel the relief from the heat. Combined with shade, airflow, and vegetation, fine water mist can transform overheated urban spaces into places where people want to stay, meet, and enjoy city life.
