Precisely what's on my drawings for my own house and greenhouse; It is the deconstruction of the wall to the in-between; a case study of two thermal/activity zones coined as the cocoon-house. One would retreat into the inner sanctum with di-urnal temperature distribution management I would like to know if they have data on the thermal performance in the two zones. Perhaps this project did not go this far?
