	Colombo, Sri Lanka Outdoor comfort is essential in many cities in the tropics, since much of the commercial activities take place in the streets and squares. Today, climate change and urban heating are phenomena adding to generally high temperatures and humidity. Project idea with Lund University, Göteborg University and University of Moratuwa.
