Abstract
Precise control of sunlight and shade on windows permits substantial energy savings in the heating and cooling of homes and similar structures. In this investigation, both manual and computerized procedures were developed to guide landscape design to achieve maximum savings. The procedures—which define ideal spatial arrangements of vegetation for windows of various sizes and orientations and for different latitudes and climates—are illustrated for a typical home. Guidelines for choosing suitable species and cultivars are also given.
