Corbusier's Tower of Shadows, Chandigarh, India, with textures.

'Just beyond the solar monument is the tower of shadows a demonstration of Corbusier's theories of sun control, consisting of a series of platforms oriented to the Cardinal points and containing sun breakers on three sides (except north).
This concrete structure is a culmination of the in depth studies of Corbusier on the path of the sun and ways to control its penetration in to the built up space.'

This is great! Very powerfull. And now go for the shadows, following sun position in the sky! This must be feasable in the near future!
