It’s all about the right climate!
We all know what it’s like – whether at home, in our leisure activities or on holiday, if the climate isn’t right, we don’t feel right. We’re listless and not really interested in physically strenuous activities.
It’s a similar story at work because our “thermal wellbeing” plays an important role there too. Our attentiveness, concentration and overall performance depend significantly on the climate conditions around us.
This interactive facility enables participants to ‘feel’ different climate conditions and assess them using various parameters.
