External Shading Systems

External Shading Systems is a solar-responsive architectural intervention that consists of physical elements mounted on the exterior façade of a building to selectively intercept solar radiation before it penetrates the envelope, thereby reducing heat gain and optimizing daylighting in comparison to internal or unshaded configurations.
