The Role of Orosi’s Islamic Geometric Patterns in the Building Façade Design for Improving Occupants’ Daylight Performance

open access: yesJournal of Daylighting, 2020
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 ...

Indoor Daylight Performances of Optimized Transmittances with Electrochromic-Applied Kinetic Louvers

open access: yesBuildings, 2022
Windows with low visible light transmittance (VLT) and g-values are preferred to reduce the building’s energy consumption. However, low VLT and g-value can create an unpleasant indoor daylight environment.

Daylight Performance of Fiber Optic Daylighting in Deep Plan Office Room

open access: yesDIMENSI (Journal of Architecture and Built Environment), 2023
Most buildings have spaces far from the windows that require artificial lighting for illumination throughout the day. In fact, artificial lighting contributes to the second highest electrical energy consumption, especially in educational institutions that require more lighting.

Daylighting in classrooms - the daylight factor as a performance criterion

open access: yes, 2014
Recent research has shown that environmental conditions in classrooms, and namely daylighting conditions, can influence students health, well-being and performance. In the last years several studies, dealing with the effects of environmental conditions in classrooms in the learning process, have been published (Winterbottom, & Wilkins, 2009; Barret ...

The New York Times Headquarters daylighting mockup: Monitored performance of the daylighting control system [PDF]

open access: yesEnergy and Buildings, 2006
A nine-month monitored field study of the performance of automated roller shades and daylighting controls was conducted in a 401 m 2 unoccupied, furnished daylighting mockup. The mockup mimicked the southwest corner of a new 110 km 2 commercial building in New York, New York, where The New York Times will be the major tenant.

Daylighting Evaluation of Perforated Screen Façade with Light Shelf in the Tropics

open access: yesDimensi: Journal of Architecture and Built Environment
The use of large glass facades in buildings without external shading devices leads to a high daylight level, uneven daylight distribution, and glare. A perforated screen facade (PSF) is one of the shading systems that can provide daylight and view and ...
