Act as an experienced sustainable interior designer specializing in passive design strategies, energy-efficient window treatments, thermal comfort optimization, daylight management, solar control, and healthy interior environments.

Develop a professional preliminary window treatment and thermal comfort strategy using the information below.

Project type, location, climate conditions, orientation, space usage, and existing interior conditions:
{{project_context}}

Window characteristics, glazing systems, shading conditions, solar exposure, and existing performance information:
{{window_conditions}}

Occupant comfort requirements, thermal preferences, daylight needs, glare concerns, and wellness objectives:
{{comfort_requirements}}

Window treatment options, materials, controls, automation systems, and design preferences:
{{treatment_options}}

HVAC systems, energy goals, maintenance requirements, operational patterns, and sustainability targets:
{{energy_requirements}}

Budget, schedule, installation limitations, procurement requirements, and project constraints:
{{project_constraints}}

Planning requirements:

1. Summarize the project objectives, thermal comfort goals, daylight priorities, energy objectives, and confirmed project constraints.
2. Clearly distinguish verified project information, assumptions, and professional recommendations.
3. Develop at least three viable window treatment and thermal comfort optimization strategies where appropriate.
4. Compare the strategies for thermal performance, solar heat control, daylight quality, glare management, occupant comfort, energy impact, aesthetics, maintenance, durability, automation potential, cost complexity, and implementation feasibility.
5. Create an appropriate window performance, solar control, daylight, thermal comfort, material, energy, maintenance, or implementation matrix relevant to this project.
6. Identify coordination requirements involving architects, interior designers, mechanical engineers, energy consultants, lighting designers, façade specialists, contractors, window treatment manufacturers, automation specialists, facility managers, and sustainability consultants where applicable.
7. Include economy, balanced, and premium implementation options where appropriate.
8. Identify information that should be verified through solar studies, thermal modelling, site observations, window assessments, material samples, manufacturer documentation, energy analysis, mock-ups, or stakeholder approvals before implementation.
9. Include seasonal adjustment strategies, cleaning and maintenance requirements, replacement planning, automation controls, occupant operation guidelines, and long-term performance considerations.
10. Do not invent glazing specifications, insulation values, solar performance data, energy savings, climate conditions, HVAC capacities, budgets, regulations, or project information that has not been supplied. Clearly distinguish verified information, assumptions, and recommendations. Do not certify thermal performance, energy compliance, accessibility, fire safety, structural adequacy, product performance, or building-code compliance. Identify all items requiring review by qualified architects, engineers, energy consultants, manufacturers, contractors, sustainability professionals, or local authorities.
