Passive Solar Design House

A home with passive design is a concept that creates a comfortable indoor environment by skillfully utilizing natural forces such as sunlight, heat, and wind. By carefully planning the building orientation, window positions, eaves, insulation, and ventilation, you can aim for comfort tailored to the season without relying too much on heating and cooling. Ingenuity according to the regional climate and site conditions, such as capturing solar radiation in winter and blocking strong sunlight in summer, leads to the performance and livability of the home. By thinking about the relationship with nature from the basics of architecture, it is also attractive to enjoy the changes of light and wind themselves. This introduces a passive design home where you can live comfortably throughout the year while incorporating the power of nature.
