Trees Plant small trees in pots around your house which provides shade and keeps the house cooler.

Window dressings Use blackout window dressings to keep out the sun. Today you can find many different window blind options.

Wall colours Painting your walls dark colours can help create a cave effect.

Flooring For wood or tile floors, a natural sisal rug is a great floor covering.

Plants Indoor plants are great for creating a natural setting and for improving the air quality.

Fans Today there are some great looking ceiling fans on the market

A cool idea is to put a bowl of iced water in front of a floor standing fan!
