Depth, shade and proportion
Recessed windows, deep balconies and integrated shading control direct sun while giving the elevation depth. They work best when they belong to the logic of the massing rather than being applied decoration.
Materials for the context
Resistance to humidity, salt and temperature change should guide material selection from day one. Connection details and maintainability matter as much as color and texture.
Daylight and energy
Openings must balance view, light and heat gain. The goal is controlled daylight and a more comfortable interior throughout the day.
