Hi all.

I guess our concluding thematic elements for the warming hut were wayfinding and a jofa helmet. so 1) protection and 2) direction

Here are sketches and random thoughts from yesterdays after work meeting.

The gist being, we wanted to have an anchoring back wall that is a piece of furniture with shelves, seats etc that would also be a heat sink - and a lighter and transparent front wall.

Options we heard for stuffing for heat sinks: straw bale, hockey pucks, water bottles filled with water, spray foam, furniture foam.

The floor could be a rubberized map with an abstracted map inlaid into it or have an illuminated led map with the red led saying you are "here"

The front "wall" could have wayfinding incorporated into it - maps or children skating that would cast a shadow into the space.

we like felt... freeze thaw.... being practical...'airlock' doors...reuseable...
