For the tree parametric modeling I choose an example of Prunus Pissardi. Its origin is in the Balkan Peninsula, it can reach 8 metres in height and it can be present like a shrub or like a small tree. The Prunus Pissardi is distinguished by its foliage: it can be really thick, its leaves are oval or elliptical shaped, while the coloring is red purple. The Prunus flowering generally occurs in the spring and the visual effect is spectacular, thanks to the pink-white flowers.

The project is about residences integrated by social and commercial services in Terni near “Villaggio Matteotti” of Giancarlo de Carlo. 

The area is currently free, located in the suburbs of the city at the border of the countryside.

Two different residential areas are thought (A and B) divided by a tree-lined street of new construction.

Before studying solar radiation I analyzed again my building in order to find out all the architectural elements which could affect the results. In this case the only relevant ones are the balconies, which characterize three of the six façades, and the cornice at the top of it,  as you can see from the photo below,  since the building shape is very simple and compact.
