Understanding cross-modal environmental perception is essential for improving occupant well-being and human-centric building design. This paper presents an open-access, multi-site database developed under the IEA-EBC Annex 79 project to test the Hue-Heat Hypothesis (HHH), which hypothesizes that light hue may influence thermal perceptions. The database comprises 543 experimental rounds conducted in eight laboratories across six countries and diverse climate zones, following a shared, rigorously designed protocol. During summer and winter campaigns, participants were exposed to controlled thermal environments and counterbalanced lighting conditions (neutral, reddish, bluish). The database includes detailed metadata on environmental variables, physiological measurements (i.e., heart rate and skin temperature), and self-reported perceptual responses. It also provides standardized technical documentation for each test room, including the detailed experimental protocol and translated survey instruments. All materials are available on the Open Science Framework under the "Multi-site Hue-Heat-Hypothesis Testing" repository. This resource supports research into multi-domain human comfort, enabling analysis of cross-modal and combined effects on human perception and physiological reactions.
理解跨模态环境感知对于提高居住者的幸福感和以人类为中心的建筑设计至关重要。本文介绍了一个在国际能源署-建筑环境委员会第79号附件项目下开发的开放获取多站点数据库，用于测试色调-热假设（HHH），该假设认为光色调可能会影响热感知。该数据库包含在六个国家不同气候区的八个实验室中按照共同严格设计的协议进行的543轮实验。在夏季和冬季活动期间，参与者暴露在可控的热环境和平衡的光照条件下（中性、微红、微蓝）。该数据库包括环境变量、生理测量（即心率和皮肤温度）以及自我报告的感知反应的详细元数据。它还为每个测试房间提供标准化的技术文档，包括详细的实验协议和翻译后的调查问卷。所有材料都可在开放科学框架下的“多站点色调-热假设测试”存储库中获取。该资源支持对多领域人类舒适度的研究，能够分析对人类感知和生理反应的跨模态和综合影响。
