description After a period of fascination with the very fact of generating cheap renewable energies we are entering a period of seeking solutions which would not only be useful but would also have an attractive form. The information society sets for the designers the task of ensuring that environment-friendly solutions become aesthetically an integral part of an architectural site or urban layout and do not have an adverse impact on the landscape. Technological progress in the application of digital techniques greatly enhances the architect’s tools in this matter as it enables not only the modelling of systems in the virtual space of the computer but also the simulation of processes in a search for optimum solutions, while keeping control of the form. This research have potential to be a tool conducive to the protection of the cultural and natural landscape. The aim of this paper is to analyze some of the recent achievements in using computer simulation, its usefulness in shaping and controlling the suburban landscape, and in particular solutions that draw energy from the sun.places. Apart from the role of identification, information and advertising, these signs have also aesthetic significance as well as they are spatial forms of territorial division.
