For temperature regulation one can think of a double skin; where walls of air will have an isolation function and at the same time an acoustics isolation function. In this way the walls can as well become a part of the construction. The climate in these zones can be influenced artificially. | For temperature regulation one can think of a double skin; where walls of air will have an isolation function and at the same time an acoustics isolation function.
