As the German philosopher Peter Sloterdijk points out, distrust in the environment that surrounds us, together with the development of air control and comfort technologies, has led us to an increasing process of “interiorization” of architectural space. Our globalized world has thus accustomed us to breathe a designed and synthesized air, enveloping us in a predetermined comforting atmosphere, perfectly developed and “scented”, in order to create new and exciting effects on users-spectators-buyers.
This interior is, in itself, a great climatic machine; that is, a “great sculpture of air” that its inhabitants pass through as a “breathable installation”. Air that can be manipulated, controlled (almost in laboratory conditions) and stored optimally.
In this regard, several relevant cases will be presented here as they will be able to manipulate the many atmospheric variables, vectors, energies, gradients, etc. at the service of new interiors: sensorially suggestive and geographically displaced.
