Re: Drawing Board: Designing Sunscreens

Great article.
These sun screens kill 3 birds with one stone: they look good, they make your home more energy efficient, and they're inexpensive. Proper design is really important for these, so the shade line factor chart is extremely helpful. And, since Colorado has 300+ days of sun, these are especially good for where I work and live.
