Bridging Horizontal to Vertical Radiative Cooling
Radiative cooling materials are mature but only work facing the sky, confining them to rooftops. Instead of developing new ones, this system bridges existing horizontal coolers to vertical windows using blades outside the glass. On an occupied urban building, windows stay up to 1.4°C below air temperature while preserving daylight, outward views, and ...

Autonomous Solar Metallurgy for High‐Purity Gold Recovery from Electronic Waste
Inspired by microbial strategies for metal uptake and biomineralization, defect‐rich copper sulfide (Cu31S16) functions as a solar metallurgical platform that unifies Au(III) capture, reduction, and self‐separation. The bioinspired design enables ultrafast gold recovery from electronic‐waste leachates and the spontaneous formation of millimeter‐scale ...

Polydopamine‐Wool Textiles for Sustainable Interfacial Solar Vapor Generation
A natural wool textile engineered for high solar absorbance and a fast‐wicking structure serves as a highly efficient, single‐layer system for interfacial solar vapor generation (ISVG). This integrated evaporator seamlessly couples rapid water transport with continuous evaporation. Ultimately, this sustainable photothermal design offers a scalable, eco‐

A Comparative Study of Tactical Urbanism Practices Applied in Lost Spaces
Today, cities, as dynamic, complex, and fragmented spaces, present various urban problems. Projects proposed through traditional planning approaches are inadequate in solving urban problems because they are resistant to change, have slow-moving processes,
