<![CDATA[The use of fossil fuel becomes one of the cause of global warming. Buildings are massive energy users. This research aims to analyze the size of hotel windows to minimize energy use on buildings. This research is a quantitative research, using observation and experimental methods. The research object is the Four Points Hotel building, located in Jln. Landak Baru of Makassar City. Observation of the building’s physique is conducted on the building plans and the conditions of the building’s project location.
