During summer period extremely high temperatures occur in urban areas. As a result of exposure to solar radiation land surface areas in urban block can contribute to this effect. One of the most effective ways to mitigating solar insolation of land surfaces is overshadowing by using building geometry. Accordingly, the aim of this thesis is to propose method which combines genetic algorithm, solar simulation, 3D and procedural modeling in order to decrease level of land surfaces of urban blocks. The research was conducted in the urban fabric of Vršac. Proposed algorithm uses height of building total occupation factor and soil occupation factor of the plot as a bounding factor for shaping geometry.
