In solar neighborhoods, buildings' morphological forms and relations (i.e., building height - H, distance between buildings or width of the street - W) are firstly optimized by guaranteeing either access to or shading from sunlight, accordingly to the specific needs (e.g., direct access to ...

The proposed algorithm's iterative design is a key attribute. The most promising result of this approach is its ability to minimize the distance between houses and points of interest while optimizing the network's total length. This dual optimization ensures a balanced distribution of houses and ...
