Before we begin.

How is natural light planned in Odweyne?

By placing openings on the right walls and sizing them to the room, so daylight reaches in without too much heat.

What should I consider when planning a house in Odweyne?

Why does daylight matter?

A well-lit home feels better and needs less artificial light, which lowers running cost.
