Seeking shadow. A cool fix for hot cities by Urbi Atlas

This project visualises the power of shade in combating extreme urban heat, blending historical design wisdom with modern innovations. Using data-driven insights, it highlights how trees, canopies, and kinetic shading structures cool cities, reduce energy use, and improve public health. The project integrates urban analytics, digital twin simulations, and illustrations to demonstrate how shading can create more liveable cities while tackling rising temperatures sustainably.
