Abstract:
It is well-known that daylight is a fundamental element to experiencean architectural space. In spite of that, there are limitedresources that consider how to form that space based ondaylight. This paper constitutes ‘Breaking the Box’ as a newconcept, which can be taken by architects, lighting designersand urban planners in parallel to their daylight design techniquesas a tool in design practice.‘Breaking the Box’ has its origin in the destruction of the boxconcept, a design method of the modern architecture pioneerFrank Lloyd Wright. Thus, it is an attempt to develop Wright’stheory in relatio

Abstract:
The focus of this thesis is to investigate if diffusedaylight affects human depth perception. It is builtupon previous knowledge and methods of observingand perceiving light brought into a research thatexperiment with different spatial contexts throughscale models. The central position of perceptual cueswithin the human visual field is discussed in relationto perceptual depth and visual elementsThe result of the performed experiement showed apossibility for diffuse daylight to have an effect on theperception of depth.Having the knowledge of building with daylightwill lead to a better understan

As a compliment to more traditional avenues of daylighting research that assess performance in terms of quantitative illuminance goals and glare-based discomfort, my thesis defines light variability and contrast as a finely tuned architectural effect. Under the rapidly growing context of energy conscious research, my thes

Abstract:
The master’s thesis investigates daylight qualities and visitors’ perception in the central atriumof Medelhavsmuseet in Stockholm, Sweden. The investigation started from personal observationof the space where a feeling of darkness was experienced despite the existing skylight.The visitors’ perception of daylight and space were examined through a survey, and it wascompared to daylight simulations where it was proven that the museum’s daylight quality couldbe classified as a minimum. It is suspected that visitor perception of the space was consideredto be bright due to the use of artificial ligh

Abstract:
This thesis investigates how the opening in the envelope of a typical Swedish commercial residential project could be treated differently from today. Instead of using the openings only to create a unique facade or to reach a certain daylight factor I try to find out how the openings could be treated in a manner affecting the perception of the interior space. Conscious use of qualities related to the opening, such as daylight and view has been used as a design tool. This project is not to be seen as a traditional design project but as an investigation about daylight and openings in commercial r

Abstract:
This thesis highlights the benefits to occupants and owners of buildings who utilise daylight effectively. Many cases of absence are related to depression or Seasonal Adjustment Disorder(SAD) which results from inadequate exposure to daylight in the work place. The use of artificial lights has been linked to minor as well as more serious ailments such as cancer and increases in cases of miscarriage. The use of daylight in buildings from economic and environmental perspectives is the main concern of the thesis. The work and analysis of this thesis have produced two new illuminance models. In ad

However, one's physical environment can significantly affect how they sleep, work, and interact with others- especially on college campuses where many do all of those things in the same spaces.
