Sun path diagrams can tell you a lot about how the sun will impact your site and building throughout the year. Stereographic sun path diagrams can be used to read the solar azimuth and altitude for a given location.
Massing and orientation are important design factors to consider for visual comfort, or daylighting. Many of the strategies are similar to those for passive heating, but also different factors, such as glare, to consider.

Massing and orientation are important design factors to consider for passive cooling. Consider these factors early in the design so that the building layout and building orientation can all be optimized for passive comfort.
