Judge every surface on its own terms.
See how terraces, courtyards, roofs, and facades perform separately, so each place can be tuned for the people who will actually use it.
03 / Know when light arrives
Separate morning and afternoon exposure.
See which facades and outdoor rooms receive morning light, afternoon light, or both, so the design can respond to the moments that matter.
04 / Design with solar potential
Move from shade to energy.
Compare radiation as well as shadow hours, so roofs, facades, planting, and outdoor rooms can be judged by the energy they receive.
05 / Trace the sun path
Make seasonal change visible.
Show the sun's movement behind each result, so clients can understand why a shadow appears and how the decision changes across the year.
