Aureola against Heat Islands

Projects

The City of Lugano is testing a high-pressure, high-efficiency mist-cooling system to mitigate the “heat-island” phenomenon during the summer months. It was installed in Viganello in 2025.

The project will enhance the sports offerings, improving the quality of life in Cornaredo thanks to large green areas and public spaces suitable for sharing and hosting events, including international ones.
