Am I going to reduce a room’s temperature covering a huge hopper window with either paper or reflective aluminum foil, but leaving the window a bit open when the sun shines directly into the window? (linux.community)

I need an air current in this room, even when the sun shines directly into it.

I was thinking covering the hopper window with either paper or reflective foil and leaving it a bit open, but I don’t know if this is a stupid idea.

A closed window means an unlivable room.

Somewhat unrelated, but window awnings are an often overlooked solution for your exact problem. They're not quite as quick and dirty as some reflectix or aluminum foil, though.
