Design recommendations

What this means for your home.

Based on latitude 12.97° and today's sun angles — tailored for Warm & Humid climate.

Shade the heat façades

South & West catch the most solar heat. A 8 cm deep overhang above south windows blocks the noon sun but lets winter light through.

Bedrooms

Place bedrooms on the North or East side. Morning light wakes gently; afternoons stay cool.

Living rooms

Living rooms work best facing South or East — generous daylight without the west-afternoon heat.

Kitchen

Kitchens do well on the East or South-East — morning light, cross-ventilation for cooking heat.

Today's quirk

Today the sun passes north of directly overhead at noon — shade north-facing windows too, a quirk most homes ignore.
