How did Lewis Latimer solve the problem of easily accessible, clean, and cool air in Manhattan in the 1890s? By inventing an early air conditioning system, of course! Celebrate Latimer’s invention and explore how architects today combine art, math, and design to keep spaces cool by creating cardboard buildings and adding them to our collaborative and sustainable city.
