A simplified explanation. Passive solar design uses the building itself to work with the sun. Orientation, window placement, shading, and thermal mass help capture warmth in winter and limit heat in summer.

Passive solar design in building construction in layman terms simply means constructing your house with the elements in mind, i.e., utilizing nature to cool or heat your structure depending on where you are located. From the orientation of the building to the placement of the openings for doors and windows, insulation, shading, and thermal mass, these factors are a must to consider for any type of construction #containerhouse #containerdesign #containerbuilding #containerlife #tinspaces | TinSpa
