The rhythm, dynamics, and processes of our natural environment are increasingly affected by human activities--it is high time that we focus on the greater planetary context of our social activities

This book explores climate and atmosphere and the potential impact on different design disciplines. For this purpose, the focus is on the performative characteristics of climate and atmosphere--air, atmosphere, and climate are considered important input factors that prompt us to rethink our actions and designs in the Anthropocene era.

This carefully edited volume contains contributions from well-known authors in various disciplines, who provide many examples to illustrate their ideas and observations.
