Abstract:
With the increase in the use of daylight in architecture, providing visual comfort values as well as physical and psychological effects on people and minimizing the lighting energy need of the building have become important in terms of design. Today, with the development of daylight technologies, economic light tubes have become popular in Architecture. Light tubes have become an effective method in Architecture in terms of energy efficiency to illuminate areas of a building that are exposed to limited sunlight. In addition, people prefer to use daylight by nature. Therefore, the use of light tubes continues to increase in buildings with modern architecture. However, due to architectural design and necessities, daylight is used in a limited way in interior areas. While architects determine the position of the light tubes in the building in order for daylight to reach the dark and dim spots of the buildings, knowing the Illuminance level performance of the positioned light tubes has become a necessity for efficient use. In the study conducted to solve this problem, the Daylight Factor Method specified in the European Union EN 17037:2018 Standard was used in the use of light tubes. As stated in the relevant standard, the methods in the daylight factor value ISO 15469:2004 were used. The evaluation of the buildings in terms of daylight performance was calculated in the simulation environment according to the horizontal luminance of the daylight openings. With the designed simulation, the values in the conditions specified in the criteria related to the light tubes are provided. In this way, a light tube that provides energy efficiency is compatible with the circadian rhythm and is compatible with the architecture of this building, and optimum illuminance level values have been determined for the warehouse, which is the subject of the study in the simulation environment.

Abstract:
Abstract This article examines the characteristics of Korean church architecture from the perspective of the hanok (the traditional Korean house). Previously, Western commentators criticized Korean church architecture as not reflecting a theological ideology and lacking a consistent architectural style. However, examining Korean church architecture through the lens of Western church architecture does not allow for the adequate appreciation or understanding of this form. This study, therefore, considers the development of Korean churches through an examination of the hanok, including floor plans, the concept of spatial expansion, and attitudes toward daylight. In addition, gender-based seating arrangements, the horizontal extension of space, and windows that admit horizontal daylight also reflect common aspects of the hanok. Beyond showing how a distinctly Korean church architecture developed over time, these characteristics also demonstrate the central role of women and the congregation in Korean churches, in contrast to the clergy-centric design of Western churches.

Abstract:
Evaluation metrics using climate-based daylight modelling paradigms have become the de-facto standard in work environments but have only limited applicability in residential architecture. Qualities of daylight cited in the architectural design literature, such as daily and seasonal availability of daylight as well as access to direct sunlight, are simulated in detail but are usually overlooked in the commonly used evaluation metrics. In a recent paper, a new climate-based, annual daylight evaluation framework called the residential daylight score has been proposed for cold and temperate climates. It assesses daylight autonomy and access to direct light in 12 daily and seasonal bins and proposes targets for seasonal and diurnal daylight autonomy and duration of direct sunlight exposure. While the metric aims to capture essential characteristics of residential daylight, only a few reference cases exist in the literature to adequately judge its achievability and applicability. This paper aims to thoroughly test the residential daylight score and provide reference cases for 2444 apartments from a set of 18 multifamily buildings that compare the new metric with currently used climate-based metrics.

Abstract:
Daylighting is a strategic topic to achieve sustainable buildings, so it is more and more imperative that it is implemented in architecture curricula to prepare a new generation of daylighting-oriented practitioners. In this frame, the DAYKE project (Daylight Knowledge in Europe) was set up to explore the level of knowledge about daylighting among European professionals and students. DAYKE-Europe was replicated as DAYKE-Italy to study the knowledge of daylight standards, metrics and software among Italian architecture students, and to compare it to that observed within DAYKE-Europe. A sample of 542 questionnaires were collected in five universities. Primary outcomes were: (i) a general low level of knowledge on daylighting was observed; the most cited metrics were the average daylight factor and the geometrical window-to-floor ratio, while climate-based daylight metrics were rarely mentioned; (ii) master science M.Sc. students reported more knowledge on daylight metrics and regulations than bachelor B.Sc. students, while the implementation of daylight metrics and strategies in projects was mainly deficient among B.Sc. students; (iii) compared to European students (DAYKE-Europe), Italian students showed a higher knowledge of daylight metrics and software (especially as for M.Sc. students), while the opposite was observed for standards, regulations and protocols. Based on the results, a reconsideration of daylight education in architecture curricula is recommended.

Abstract:
Residential architecture constitutes one of the largest market segments in the construction sector. However, the attention that it is given in the field of daylight performance simulation is surprisingly low. This poses the question of whether existing daylighting metrics are well suited for residential design. Findings from 79 references are summarized, and a critical review of current climate-based daylighting metrics in the context of residential architecture is provided. It is found that existing workflows often overlook relevant aspects of daylight in residential spaces, such as diurnal and seasonal availability of daylight and access to direct sunlight. Hence, a concept for a new climate-based, annual evaluation framework that overcomes these shortcomings, called the residential daylight score, is introduced.

Abstract:
The environmental and social role of closed oriental balconies (Mashrabiyas) remains a significant vernacular aspect of Middle Eastern architecture. However, nowadays this traditional Islamic window element with its characteristic latticework is used to cover entire buildings as an oriental ornament, providing local identity and a sun-shading device for cooling. In fact, designers have reinvented this vernacular Islamic wooden structure into high-tech responsive daylight systems – often on a massive scale and using computer technology – not only to cover tall buildings as an oriental ornament, but also as a major responsive daylight system.It is possible to use the traditional architectural Islamic elements of the Middle East for problem solving design solutions in present-day architecture. The potential for achieving these solutions lies in the effective combination of the design concepts of the traditional elements with new smart materials and technologies. Hence, modern mashrabiyas could be a major responsive daylight system. Contextual information drawn from relevant theory, ethnography and practice is used to form a methodological framework for the modern mashrabiyas with high-tech responsive daylight systems. The main results set boundaries for the viability of computer technology to produce mashrabiyas and promote a sustainable way of reviving their use within Middle Eastern buildings.

Abstract:
Daylight in nature is characterized by daily permanent changes of sunlight and skylight. Real measurements of daylight availability are showing that different daylight exterior illuminance for building interiors can be expected each minute. This brings some complications in the window design and the choice of criteria for daylight evaluations. There are several ways how to find basic conditions and typical relations combining sunlight beam with diffuse skylight from the whole sky vault. The older assumption considered that interiors have to be sufficiently illuminated under the worst overcast conditions. The newer approach is based on the utilization of daylight in specific localities and the determination of changes in sunlight and skylight occurrence probability. Therefore, both daylight sources are researched in detail specifying sky luminance distributions and sun influences to find conditions for their simulation in laboratory facilities. The most sophisticated equipment to study daylighting in exterior and interior architectural spaces are artificial skies with the artificial sun. These have to be precisely calibrated with a verified zenith luminance and horizontal illuminance levels by theoretical calculations and checked by experimental measurements. Reference daylight conditions defined in the ISO/CIE 15469:2004 standard have to be respected with trials to determine natural sun and sky as sources of daylight in the real environment and modelling these in the artificial sky in a certain intensity scale. This paper presents the method and results of modelling daylight applying electrical light sources in artificial sky which is installed in the Institute of Construction and Architecture, Slovak Academy of Sciences (ICA SAS) and discusses possibilities of their simulation in laboratory conditions.

Abstract:
Daylit architecture is perceived as a dynamic luminous composition, yet most existing performance metrics were designed to evaluate natural illumination for its ability to adequately illuminate a two-dimensional task surface and avoid glare-based discomfort. It may be argued that task-driven approaches based on surface illumination and glare ignore the likelihood that contrast can provide positive impacts on our visual perception of space. Advances in these metrics to accommodate climate-based sky conditions and occupant behaviour have improved our ability to evaluate task illumination and glare, yet the same attention has not been paid to evaluating positive perceptual responses to daylight. Existing studies have attempted to link subjective ratings of composition to simple global contrast metrics without reaching consensus. More advanced metrics have been developed in computational graphics and vision fields but have not been applied to studies in qualitative lighting research. This paper introduces the results from an online experiment where subject ratings of daylight composition are compared to quantitative contrast measures across a series of renderings. This paper will identify which measures correlate to subjects’ ratings of visual interest and introduces a modified contrast algorithm, which can be used as a novel prediction model for visual interest in daylit renderings.

Abstract:
Daylight has been used for centuries as the main source of light in the interior and has always been an implicit part of architecture since the buildings existed. Not only does it replace electrical lighting during the day, reducing electric power consumption, but it also affects heating and cooling, making it an important parameter in energy efficient design. Research has shown that daylight is a great asset to health and comfort, so it is crucial for building occupants. Daylighting of the interior spaces of buildings and their functionally defined parts is proposed according to visual activities. The minimum values for daylight factor are set for individual visual activities. This article deals with factors influencing the value of the daylight factor.

Abstract. Scientific data are sparse on hospital design in child and adolescent psychiatry. The present article aims to give an overview of various concepts of hospital design and to develop concepts how architecture can consider the special needs of children and adolescents in their recovery from psychiatric diseases. Literature research is provided from PubMed and collected from architectural and anthroposophic bibliography. Access to daylight and nature, reduced level of noise and an atmosphere of privacy are general principles to support convalescence in patients. Especially in psychiatry, spatial structures and colour can strengthen appropriate social interrelations on both the patient and staff level. Authors suggest that children and adolescents benefit from architectural concepts which consider the issues: Welcome, Path, Territory, Area of Freedom, Outdoor Space, Access to Light, Motion in the Structure and Orientation of Space.

Daylight has a significant impact on the perception of the building space. The term “lightspace” is introduced to determine phenomena of sensorial perception of architectural object’s indoor space and four different components of lightspace, such as functional, architectural and artistic, light-technical and visual, are considered. Further, three groups of architectural and artistic design techniques were estimated: based on space modeling (organisation of lightspaces in the building structure, organization of multi-light spaces, plasticity organization of lightspace, methods of natural light penetration through the shell of the building), light modeling (the distribution of light in space and its spectral composition), and time modeling (light dynamic, transformation of the building parts, movement of people in the place). Attention is drawn to relationship between diverse lightspace design techniques and architectural practice.

Abstract:
One of the major factors in verifying the way in which internal environments and buildings are qualified by people is daylight. The role of daylight in day to day basis and the fact of providing internal space quality make it that important. This is one of the reasons behind the constant need to integrate daylight into architecture, apart from high cost of fossil fuels or temporary electricity sources. Besides being one of the most efficient sources of energy, not to mention the fact that its completely free, there are other important aspects that should not be overlooked before entering the building. Generally, it is considered a pleasure to have daylight inside the building unless it distracts the occupants from accomplishing their daily tasks such as glare from computer screens as this can reduce productivity of offices and creates eye strain. Replacing artificial lighting with natural daylighting can be the best solution in terms of carbon footprint reduction and cutting costs to a minimum. It is essential to make sure that improper natural lighting or poor control doesnt give overheating or glare discomfort.

Abstract:
The circadian phototransduction issue caused strong interest at the beginning of the new millennium, while the research of non-visual influence of light is predominantly developing in medicine field of science. The outputs confirmed hypothesis that human habits are strongly related with ambient light conditions and disruption of natural light conditions may result in complex of health diseases with negative consequences. Actual effort for minimizing energy demands of buildings is very important for sustainable architecture, but the aspect of “circadian-friendly” design should not be neglected, even though it is not entirely investigated yet. The growth of building envelope´s thickness, as an example, causes noticeable drop of amount of penetrating daylight with the same dimensions of fenestrations. The paper presents an overview of evaluation methods of circadian effect of light on human including available actual calculation equations and standards, providing certain principles to design indoor spaces intended for long term occupation. The aim is to extend the knowledge focused on suggestion of internal surfaces, glazing and active shading systems into building physics and architectural design with a possibility to achieve a control by system of intelligent building

The form of the building facade significantly affects the amount of useful daylight admitted in the interior space. Striking a balance between the visual comforts of occupants and taking advantage of daylight is always a challenge and, therefore, investigating complex, geometric forms of Orosi patterns can be an effective way of improving visual comfort alongside the aesthetic aspects. Due to intense radiation in the hot and arid climate of Iran, passive strategies were employed for controlling natural light. As a daylight-related component in Iranian vernacular architecture, Orosi offers different functions which are divided into three categories, namely daylight performance, thermal performance, and decorative role. In an attempt to improve indoor daylighting and visual comfort of occupants, this paper investigated, for the first time, the daylight performance of different Islamic geometric patterns (IGPs) used in Orosies with different thicknesses on the West and south facade. To this end, a total number of twelve traditional courtyard houses were studied through a field survey to extract different types of IGPs used in the Orosies. Finally, a grid-based simulation analyzed the indoor daylight conditions through climatic-luminance based metrics. The findings confirmed the daylight performance of the IGPs as a complex geometric form used for the facades. Compared to the base case on the South façade, all the studied patterns offered a significant potential to address the requirements of visual comforts. Additionally, the results revealed the considerable effect of thickness on the daylight performance of IGPs. Based on the results, the 10 and 15 cm thicknesses, showed better results, in comparison with the 5 cm thickness. The 8-Point-Star, as the best choice for the South façade, kept the metrics within an adequate range for occupants. The 8-Point-Star provided DA, UDI, EUDI, and sDA values of 80.18%, 76.65%, 12,22%, 44,6 respectively for thicknesses of 10 cm in the bright layer, which is more than twice the UDI value provided by the base model. Furthermore, the results confirmed the poor performance of IGPs on the West façade, particularly with thicknesses of 10 and 15 cm. The 8-Point-Star and 8-Fold-Rossette, as the best choices, improved the daylight performance of the West façade and prevented visual discomfort for occupants.

Abstract:
The current study investigates the issue of computer-aided daylight evaluation in a museum room with a dropped translucent ceiling. In this type of room, daylight is admitted through classic windows located in the facade and then distributed in the plenum, which is located above the exhibition space and transmitted through the translucent ceiling into the museum room. This illumination method enables guiding daylight deep into the room, excluding the impact of direct solar radiation. The presented study is based on data obtained through computer-aided daylight simulation by DeLuminæ (DL-Light, ver. 11.0.9) software using the Radiance software for all calculations and real weather data for Wroclaw, Poland. A museum room of 12 × 12 m with three different heights of the plenums was simulated to establish an optimal relation of the width to height plenum ratio. Next, the annual exposure in K lx·h/year was calculated, as sensitive works of art may be subjected to damage caused by light exposure. To further reduce illumination, the simulation of an automatic shading system in the form of horizontal louvers was performed. The system was activated when certain illumination values were detected by the sensor on the building’s roof.

Abstract:
Daylighting systems make daylight illuminance possible, and the development of prototype daylighting systems can provide more efficient daylight illuminance. The purpose of this article is to review the development and performance of prototype daylighting systems in the last decade. The passive and active daylighting systems are listed separately and divided into the four categories by the presence and absence of hybrid. Each prototype daylighting system was evaluated in terms of cost and daylight performance and as well as their novel optical design. We evaluated the architecture and daylighting principles of each system by reviewing individual prototype daylighting systems. The cost of prototype systems still poses a challenge to development. How to use passive or active systems in different environments and whether or not electrical lighting assistance is needed is a controversial issue. However, active daylighting systems equipped with solar tracking systems are still mainstream. This research is a valuable resource for daylight researchers and newcomers. It is helpful to understand the advantages of various prototype daylighting systems and commercial daylighting systems that have been developed for many years; moreover, it is also possible to know the research directions suggested by the prototype daylighting systems. These will be of further use in developing innovative and better daylighting systems and designs.

Abstract:
The integration of adaptive distributed robotics in architectural design has the potential to improve building energy performance while simultaneously increasing occupant comfort. In addition, conceiving buildings as dynamic systems with the ability to adapt to the changing environments in which they exist, opens new aesthetic possibilities for designers. As the façade of a building is a common place to address issues of energy performance and occupant comfort, this paper presents a first prototype of an adaptive solar envelope (ASE). Its functions are to provide distributed shading, solar power generation through integrated photovoltaics, and daylight distribution. We describe the interdisciplinary design process, and illustrate the architectural possibilities that arise from a distributed systems approach. The ASE is expanded to work in parallel with an adaptive artificial lighting element. Rather than being preprogrammed, the systems adapt their behavior through interaction with the environment and building occupants. This adaptation to the user's wishes is demonstrated successfully for the artificial light controller. We argue that with presently available technology and an increased exposure of architecture students and practitioners to adaptive design techniques, adaptive architectures will soon become a regular element of the built environment.

Abstract:
This research extends Hasan Fathy’s (1986) principle of vernacular architecture by focusing on the Rawshan through an investigation of two criteria: aesthetics and energy efficiency. The paper discusses the views of both the Saudi public and key decision-makers on reviving vernacular architecture in the context of Saudi Arabia’s rapidly developing economy, characterized by relatively high rates of energy consumption and CO2 emissions. This research explores (a) the interaction in domestic buildings of Saudi occupants with their windows, and how these are perceived as an interface with the external environment; (b) awareness and knowledge of the use of shading elements (such as Rawshans) to reduce the use of artificial lighting while maintaining indoor privacy; (c) Saudi awareness of, and familiarity with, the Rawshan as a vernacular element and a secular architectural tradition; and (d) Saudi views on the revival of traditional architectural elements with a focus on the Rawshan. An online survey (n = 812) was conducted across Saudi Arabia complemented by interviews with expert decision-makers (n = 23) to (a) assess criteria such as privacy, aesthetics, daylight, ventilation, and energy consumption in Saudi residences and (b) investigate the level of acceptance of an optimized retrofitted Rawshan design.

Abstract:
In the coming years, the European building sector faces a large challenge in reducing the energy consumption and CO2 emission. To reach these targets private homeowners must participate by renovating their buildings, but various barriers prevent them from conducting extensive energy renovations. Studies have, nonetheless, shown that improvements in indoor environment, comfort and architecture can motivate the Danish homeowners. This paper examines which elements of respective indoor environment and comfort the homeowners would find essential, and which level of architectural changes they would prefer for renovation. The presented results were derived from a survey conducted in January 2012 where 883 homeowners completed a questionnaire about energy renovation, indoor environment, comfort and architecture. For good indoor environment and comfort ‘stable temperature at a comfortable level’, ‘good and plenty daylight’, ‘the ability to open windows and get fresh air inside’, ‘optimal lay-out’ and ‘no draught’ were found to be most crucial. Preferably, the architecture should undergo some changes, but the original style of the house should be respected. The homeowners’ stage in their life cycle (life-cycle situation) is the key element to consider when motivating them to perform an energy renovation since this stage can affect their motivation.

Abstract:
Nowadays, dense cities has led towards the decrease of daylight penetration into the interior space. Daylight crisis in buildings brings significant challenges to architecture, in three domains of economic, health - wellbeing and environment. "Light well" as one of the most common means of daylight tolls in building, experiences severe limitations and requires special attention. The question is which strategy is the best for increasing the daylight penetration to the depth of buildings. One of the main challenges in deep plan is to guide daylight into the building core and this can be performed through daylighting strategies, but the choice of the proper innovative daylighting system (IDS) with several parameters is the problem. This paper aims to find elements for optimal choice and selecting context-compatible tools for light well. The result shows that four macro factors were found at the interaction of building and IDS. Identifying the integration components can play an effective role in decision-making or design a new tolls consistent with the physical conditions of light well and building to overcome the daylight crisis. The present study aimed to identify, evaluate, and weigh the factors affecting the selection of appropriate and innovative daylighting systems for buildings. To this end, a three-phase study was planned and carried out. In the first phase, the factors affecting the selection of daylighting systems for the building were screened and finalized by using the Delphi method in three steps. In the second phase, interactions between criteria and sub-criteria were evaluated by the DEMATEL technique and then the network of communications and significant relationship between them were determined. The analytic hierarchy process (AHP) was employed in the third phase to evaluate the criteria and determine their importance in the selection of daylighting systems. Finally, the relevant sub-criteria were extracted and prioritized. The results indicated that structural, economic, and technical criteria were more effective than functional criteria in the selection of daylighting systems for buildings.

Abstract:
A new challenge is emerging. Contemporary built environment pedagogy demands engagement with both analogue and digital tools for simulation and verification of lit architectural environments. The use of analogue tools within architectural design education grasps onto the historically valued craftsmanship of drawing and physical models to measure, represent and understand our lit environment ambiance. Digital tools can provide efficient, simultaneous and precise verification of lit architectural interior space through 3D computer modelling and calculation software. However, the understanding and representation of daylit scenarios is becoming more numerically complex as lighting metrics and software gain in accuracy and dynamic range. With the majority of easily accessible software tools focussing on numerical verification, the ephemeral ambience that daylight in particular creates in interior architectural spaces is becoming ever more difficult to grasp for the architectural design student and practitioner. This paper seeks to challenge the exclusive use of digital tools for the understanding and representation of lit interiors by proposing that this methodology cultivates design epistemologies that are out of “touch”. Questionnaire findings and workshop studies are presented as pedagogical constructs are proposed inviting physical, experiential learning of lighting principles in collaboration with numerical and digital modes of learning to provide connections and translations to develop through ‘touch’ing light.

ABSTRAKPenelitian ini melakukan investigasi performa pencahayaan alami pada Gedung Program Studi Arsitektur Fakultas Teknik (PAFT) Universitas malikussaleh. Berdasarkan observasi pada gedung PAFT, ruangan-ruangan pada bangunan cenderung gelap dan memakai bantuan pencahayaan buatan walaupun pada siang hari, serta memiliki lahan sempit sehingga cahaya alaminya terhalang oleh bangunan perimeter. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisa performa pencahayaan alami khususnya faktor pencahayaan alami (daylight factor) pada gedung PAFT dan memberikan solusi desain untuk meningkatkan performa pencahayaan alaminya. Metode penelitian dilakukan melalui simulasi Komputer (computer simulation) dengan software Velux Daylight Visualizer versi 2.0 untuk perhitungan faktor pencahayaan alami. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa permasalahan disebabkan oleh beberapa faktor diantaranya adalah kedalaman ruang, posisi ruang, pemilihan material bukaan, penempatan bukaan yang tidak sesuai, kondisi sekitar bangunan (penghalang bangunan), dan Window Wall Ratio (WWR) yang kurang memadai. Selanjutnya, penelitian ini memberikan solusi seperti meningkatkan WWR (menambah dan memperluas bukaan), mengganti warna interiordengan warna yang lebih cerah seperti warna putih, mengganti material bukaan dengan nilai Tvis lebih tinggi (0,850) dan menambahkan shading devices pada tempat-tempat yang dianggap Membutuhkan untuk menghindari efek silau berlebihan dalam ruangan.Kata kunci: Pencahayaan Alami, Faktor Pencahayaan Alami, Velux Daylight Visualiser 2.0, Simulasi Komputer ABSTRACTDaylighting provided significant benefits such as visual comfort and energy saving for a building. In addition, it improved productivity and welbeing of its occupants. As an educational building for architecture, the building of Prodi Arsitektur Fakultas Teknik (PAFT) Universitas Malikussaleh, needed to pay attention to its daylighting performance. As observed, on the one hand, spaces within the building relatively dark and it utilised electric lighting during working hours, on the other, it was made worse by narrow site surrounded with perimeter buildings at close distances. The aim of this study was to analyse daylighting performance within PAFT building, particularly, daylight factor (DF). Furthermore, this research offered some solutions to improve daylight performance within PAFT building. Computer simulation were adopted with Velux Daylight Visualizer Version 2.0 for DF calculation. Result showed, majority of spaces within PAFT building did not meet standard as required by Standar Nasional Indonesia (SNI). The causes for the condition were depth of spaces, mispositioning of particular spaces within PAFT building, incorrect glass selection for openings, inappropriate opening positioning, reasonably close distance of adjacent building and insufficient window wall ratio (WWR). The possible solutions for the situation were increasing the WWR, change interior into a brighter color, replaced all of glasses with higher Tvis values and provided shading devices where appropriate.
