At the Precipice: Responses to the Climate Crisis, at the Design Museum of Chicago through October 30th, features our Paleo New Normal and the collaborative Chicago Tempestry Collection. The Paleo, read from left to right, depicts 1CE-2021CE, each stripe showing annual global deviation from average temperature. The darker the blue, the colder than average the year and the darker the red, the warmer than average the year. Each Original Tempestry (hanging vertically) depicts a year of daily high temperatures for Chicago specifically, ranging from 1900 (on the left) to 2022 (on the right).
