Tldr: the rooms will have pipes INSIDE the floors to cool rooms between 73-79F.

What about the humidity?

Cold floors + humidity = slippery wet floors

humidity shouldnt be a problem with modern ventilation and such large cooling surfaces.

I'm honestly shocked how much of a fuss the participants are making over 22-26° rooms. My apartment is almost never below 25°, even in the winter. Are they somehow going to perform better if it's 20° and they freeze? Not to mention fucking loud portable air conditioners are. There's a heatwave going through Sweden right now, and my apartment was up to 30° this afternoon.

Also really defeats the point about not using air-conditioning when all the participants just bring in super-inefficient portable units and then immediately throw them in the trash. I guess it's good for energy efficiency in the long run though for when these buildings become normal apartments.
