Orientation Suite

NORTH ARROWS, SUN ANGLES, AND FACADE RESPONSE.

Use this page to test how a building turns toward the sun. It estimates a basic sun vector, ranks facade exposure, and shows how the plan responds to orientation.

North Sun Exposure Response

Orientation Inputs

Enter the building orientation and a few facade segments. The tool ranks exposure using a simple cosine-based sun read.

Building bearing (deg)

Sun azimuth (deg)

Sun altitude (deg)

Shading depth (m)

Facade Azimuth Length (m) Remove

Diagram

Orientation Diagram

The diagram shows north, the sun vector, and the selected facade directions so you can see which faces are most exposed.

Summary

Orientation Totals

0% exposure 0° building bearing

North face neutral 0° sun azimuth

0 m shading depth 0° sun altitude

Add facades to start checking Use the exposure read to guide facade depth and glazing balance.
