Sun and Shadow Movement On The Grain Terminal

This is a study on the movement of the Sun and Shadows created by the sun on the Grain Terminal. Thought it may be useful if anyone wanted to concider which direction the sun comes in and how the sun effects the existing building as far as direct lighting and shadows.

  1. Also if anyone is curious as far as which way is north... On the first video the top of the screen is in the direction of north.

  2. These are great. I remember, my first year second semester, I proposed a building design where form and programmatic organization was based on sun angles.
