Abstract:

Generally and in most cases for museums, daylight is an integral part of interior illumination. This is due to daylight’s full spectrum and its ability to showcase the arts’ story, meaning and emotions. Moreover, dependingon the museum’s location, the availability of daylight varies greatly and this impacts the experience of seeing art. Various forms of art collection require different level and intensity of daylight for optimum viewing at any angle. For paintings especially, daylight plays a crucial part but also comes with some consequences. No paintings are immune to infra-red and ultra vio

This study examines the quality and availability of daylight in childcare facilities, focusing on compliance with Polish Technical Conditions (TCs) and comparing them with international certification systems such as BREEAM, LEED, and WELL. Polish regulations regarding sunlight exposure require revisions to support the sustainable development of buildings, impacting children’s well-being, their health, and the building’s energy efficiency.

Abstract:

Daylight simulation software play a significant role in decision-making during the architectural design process. These software enable architects to make informed decisions about daylight performance in the early phases of the project. Radiance as a simulation engine provides a physically accurate model of the lighting conditions in the scene, thus capable of achieving a high degree of accuracy and validity. However, with a command line interface, it requires a large number of input parameters, which complicates modelling and restricts flexibility. When integrated in the early design process,

Abstract:

One of the main challenges in visual comfort assessment is controlling daylight in indoor spaces. The effect of daylight’s contribution to total light is one of the variables influencing how people perceive illumination in an indoor environment. This study investigates the optimal day-light-to-total light ratio that delivers the most satisfaction with the lighting environment. Therefore, a subjective survey of 509 questionnaires and field measurements in six office buildings in Tehran with a total of 257 rooms was conducted to assess lighting quality (daylight and artificial light).

Abstract:

This paper introduces a new paradigm to assess daylight in buildings called ‘useful daylight illuminance’, or UDI. The UDI paradigm preserves much of the interpretive simplicity of the conventional daylight factor approach. In contrast to daylight factors however, UDI is founded on an annual time-series of absolute values for illuminance predicted under realistic skies generated from standard meteorological datasets. Achieved UDI is defined as the annual occurrence of illuminances across the work plane where all the illuminances are within the range 100-2000 lux. These limits are based on repo

Abstract:

Abstract Looking at the architecture of modern housing in Denmark, it seems to express an understanding that equals more daylight with good daylight. With coated energy glass, the windows have increased in size, making glass into a façade material. This means that windows are no longer just holes in the façade but rather make up the entire façade itself. This changes the spatial relationship between the window design and distribution of daylight within the interior space, though we seldom address this lacking a vocabulary and methods.

Abstract:

Modern office building designs tend to increase the window share per facade to make the building more impressive with extensive visibility and well daylit rooms. In general, an increased window share results in higher energy usage and higher costs of heating and cooling, but these disadvantages can be reduced with a more careful design. The aim of this paper is to show the influence of window design and room layout on heating and cooling demand and daylight availability in office buildings in northern Europe. The results in the paper are based on design calculations for two different room type

The attempt at a more sustainable land use by increasing urban density may have a negative effect on the daylighting of residential buildings. In densely built areas, obstructions generated by the surrounding buildings can substantially reduce the available amount of daylight, causing poorly daylit spaces and a less healthy indoor environment with higher electricity consumption as a consequence of artificial lighting. European standard EN 17037, Daylight in Buildings, was established in 2018 to ensure appropriately daylit spaces. In this paper, a three-step methodology was developed to investi

However, the dynamic daylight metrics (e.g. daylight autonomy, spatial daylight autonomy, useful daylight illuminance) can be more complex evaluation criteria because they are based on annual daylight illuminance data for a building site.

In other words, seeing and sensing it, registering it through photographs and drawing the tangible conditions that form the framework for the appearances of daylight. Basically, it is about practising the ability to see differences – to see the differences in the daylight and thus heighten an awareness of how to choose to design with daylight in architecture. In educating architects, we are keenly aware of encouraging students to develop an awareness of the importance and effects of daylight. This paper will examine how the experience of daylight through

Abstract:

The research deploys Velux daylight analysis software to analyse daylight performance across north, south, east and west orientations using a 6' x 7'-6" double-glazed window. The research examines three fundamental daylight parameters between daylight factor, illuminance quantity and uniformity ratios in order to identify optimal window positioning for daylight optimization and indoor comfort management. The research shows south-looking windows enable maximal daylight entrance through reaching a daylight factor of 6.90% and peak illuminance levels of 690 Lux. North exposure windows provide a s

Abstract:

This research aims to examine and evaluate the presence and quality of rhythmic daylight in healthcare facilities, particularly in patients' rooms. The study evaluates whether the natural lighting design within these rooms simulates and mimics rhythmic patterns found in natural daylight. Using computer simulation tools, such as VELUX Daylight Visualizer and Rhino with ALFA, this research evaluates key daylight performance metrics, including daylight illuminance, color temperature, daylight factor, daylight availability, and the melanopic/photopic ratio in selected patient rooms at King Abdulla

Abstract:

Abstract This study proposes and examines a new method and diagram for revealing and analysing temporal and transitional daylight conditions based on computational modelling and simulations. For a human to experience and decipher the world, daylight is a predominant resource to engage with the surroundings. With humans spending the prevalent time inside buildings, it is important to understand and design the daylight environments in the early phases of design processes. The aim is to retain and reveal the information of high-resolution simulations and to explore, test and verify the capacities
