Summer is finally here!


Are you feeling that summer this year is extremely hot/ humid/ stuffy depending on the geographical location you are? Let's go on a refurbishment on wall with diatomite based material to make the environment more refreshing and cooling! Someone who used it told me it actually works. One of the characteristics of diatomite earth is its ability to make summer cooler and winter warmer. My living room is applied with clay based with straw added. My mom always told me it's a good meditative wall, by just staring at it. As the saying goes, when the heart is at piece, the environment will become cooler and fresher. If the wall serves such purpose, why not?

Creating Cool Summer Room through Zen Wall


I almost forgot to post this piece of blog which was supposed to be up since end of May. Coming back from very very hot and humid places in China, I just want to go home and hibernate in the room. Because no one can take 40C or 104F temperature daily. Not trying to hard-sell Jwall, but seriously the diatomite series was supposed to make hot summer cooler, in door of course. I had a chance to bring back a piece of the diatomite raw block back, and the experiment with water is is amazing. I must post it soon. It's really amazing to see how the chemistry we are talking about works in real life.
