In this investigation, both manual and computerized procedures were developed to guide landscape design to achieve maximum savings. The procedures{\textemdash}which define ideal spatial arrangements of vegetation for windows of various sizes and orientations and for different latitudes and climates{\textemdash}are illustrated for a typical home. Guidelines for choosing suitable species and cultivars are also given.}, issn = {0277-2426}, URL = {https://lj.uwpress.org/content/3/1/24}, eprint = {https://lj.uwpress.org/content/3/1/24.full.pdf}, journal = {Landscape Journal} }
