The System-of-Systems research area, with its opened challenging approach to engineering practice transformation, has a significant impact to the closely related problem domains cooperation. The Architectural Design, Urban Planning, and Construction Engineering Domains, even when treated separately, are extremely demanding targets for sophisticated software tools development. While managing the complex urban blocks interactions in the contemporary city configuration, it is particularly important that these three domains cooperate closely. The application of a smart house paradigm is dominantly focused on the internal facility parameters monitoring and control. For the subset of these internal parameters, like for example: daylight illumination; privacy; and natural ventilation, the facility (building) environment impacts analysis is unavoidable. In this article, based on the System-of-Systems paradigm, we present the model of a smart house environment impact analysis framework suitable for Model Driven Simulations of Building (house) Attributes. The proposed framework architecture is designed to support the cooperation/collaboration of software tools. The verification has shown that it may be effectively used for the impact analysis of arbitrary external (urban block specific) attributes on their internal state and the behavior (specific for a single building).
