Solar Townhomes | Evanston
These two modern townhouses were designed to incorporate numerous green features. Key amongst them is how the units relate to the movement of the sun. The south facing front set of windows captures the low winter sun while calculated overhangs shade the summer sun.
The units make the most of a tight site: one unit has an exterior rear yard, while the other has a roof deck. A series of dramatic aligned decks on the front facade help to integrate the various materials. The location of the site is itself a free ideal; within a block of the Metra Rail train station and the Central Street shopping district.
