Description
Summary:Indoor air quality can contribute to the interpretation of daily situations and/or induce numbers of behaviours. Air conditioning can therefore not only allow every-day life affordances, but also exert a control over the users of the built environment. This paper examines several paradoxes relating to the apprehension of our chemical environment will first be examined. Then the main issues of attempts to manipulate behaviours through the qualities of indoor air will be presented : classically when it comes to improving productivity (working spaces) or generating attraction (sensory marketing), but also for recreational (emotional capitalism) or educational (improvement of learning processes) purposes. Finally, the potential of an “ethic of influence” of indoor air qualities in the design and materialization of the built environment will be discussed.Mots-clefs anglais manquants
