Daylighting
Natural light for naturally beautiful, healthy, and sustainable architecture
Good daylight access is essential for spatial quality, user well-being and health, energy consumption, and the overall efficiency of a building. Daylight design focuses on the relationship between ever-changing natural light and architecture’s ability to capture and harness its unique qualities.
Daylight Enriches Life
Sun-drenched interiors and warming rays of sunlight on a crisp winter morning — who wouldn't want that? Yet it’s precisely this pleasant, direct sunlight that presents a particular challenge indoors, due to the risks of overheating and glare.

Architecture Shaped by Light
Orientation, spatial geometry, and the sizing and positioning of openings can establish a strong foundation for daylight access early in the design process. In later stages, daylight analyses and digital simulations support a detailed understanding of light quality and distribution throughout the space.
