The concentration of population due to urbanization has intensified and the quality of residential environment has also deteriorated as a result of indiscriminate high-rise and high-density housing development caused by the mass supply of apartments. Although policies have been established to secure sunlight for the improvement of the quality of urban residential environment, there is a concern that they will worsen the outdoor thermal environments. This study aims to investigate an optimal apartment complex plan in consideration ofthe combination of sunlight and outdoor thermal environments. Sunlight environment analysis and outdoor thermal environment simulation were conducted in a case to which the design of experiment was applied. In addition, eco-friendly technical elements were introduced to determine the possibility of securing a comfortable residential environment.
