Unless you are trying to remove moisture from inside damp equipment (wet camera or phone) in a hurry, fresh air is best.
When storing lenses in the house, be aware of grease, oil, and chemicals in the air. There's a reason the Friday Fish-Fry was held at the church: when you fry foods, the grease permeates the air and coats everything in the house. Hair spray, cleaning chemicals, and pretty much any aerosol puts particles in the air which can find their way to the mineral coating of a lens, just like mold spores and moisture can.
The previous suggestion of a glass case is excellent. I keep my equipment on shelves in a closed guest room.
