14°C delves into Paris’s subterranean realm, which by 2050 are estimated to be, on average, 14°C. Through thermal imaging, the video explores hidden spaces—catacombs, tunnels, and basements— exposing their thermodynamic interplay of materials and architecture. It imagines how these inaccessible depths enhance urban well-being amid rising temperatures.
