Warm Booth
The self-initiated project began with my daily observations of local elders over the age of 65 in Glasgow and the human adaption revolution of the weather in the earth. Some of elder person shiver in the cold weather and have rheumatism, eczema, and painful knees. Also, according to recent news, the warm bill is up to 400% higher than in previous years. As a result, many low-income elderly people are unable to afford it, so the “warm button” is turned off. The cold air increased the death rate of the elderly and the spread of potential diseases. My project has come to an end to address this issue and alleviate the suffering of the elderly and low-income residents. After that, I created a public warming station to provide residents with a convenient location to warm up. Each participant will receive five minutes of warm air from the warm booth, which will run on electricity from the solar panel on top. I designed the warm booth to be a secluded area in accordance with the weather adaptation. As a result, it serves as both a warm location and a hub for social interaction between elderly people.
