The design of a complete solar residential subdivision in Seoul, Korea is described. The design work included site visits, the familiarization with local building practices, and the transfer of American solar technology to the Korean architectural/engineering community. This program is part of an immense project by the Korean government establishing a satellite community near Seoul, Korea and will eventually contain 2,200 solar residential units. This area of Korea, which experiences winters similar to Boston, Massachusetts, relies heavily on imported oil for residential space heating use and would welcome the energy cost relief that solar energy could produce.
