Or upgrade the radiators that look about 20 years old. I like the aethetics of the design and the out the box thinking but I am not convinced it would pass a health and safety audit!

In another hand it will be painful to apply this material to my hometown as the high gap of humility & super hot - 43 C + load of fine dust.

That being said, I always had the "door" open. Ventilation looks like it would be a definite problem. Since it's a small space though, I wonder how much of the heating would be done by body heat alone. Having made tents from bubble wrap, I can say that it’s actually a surprisingly nice atmosphere.
