Greenhouse & Shadehouse (Maria)

The Greenhouse & Shadehouse component is a hybrid "zoning" strategy for the building envelope, designed to work with the Arizona climate.

1. Shadehouse "Moat":

   * Location: Runs along the long East/West-facing walls.
   * Function: Acts as a "thermal shield." A 5-foot-wide space covered in 50-70% shade cloth, it blocks the brutal, low-angle E/W sun from ever hitting the main warehouse wall.
   * Use: This cooler, shaded area houses the long "rivers" of the aquaponics system (e.g., for lettuce and herbs).

2. Greenhouse Nodes:

   * Location: Located on the shorter, North/South-facing ends of the building.
   * Function: A fully enclosed, controlled environment. The North-facing greenhouse gets bright, indirect light, while the South-facing one uses a calculated overhang to block summer sun but allow winter sun (passive heating).
   * Use: Houses the main fish tanks, seedling nurseries, and plants that require higher heat and humidity.
