THE SUN RISES IN THE EAST AND SETS IN THE WEST
The Sun paths clearly highlights that the south side of the site gets more sunlight than the North side. By Orientating the building according to the sun I will be maximising daylighting through the buildings façade. reducing the need for artificial lighting. Design for orientation is a fundamental step to ensure that buildings work with the passage of the sun across the sky. Knowing the sun path is fundamental in designing building facades to let in light and passive solar gain, as well as reducing glare and overheating to the building interior.
