  2. Sustainable Design According to the AIA (American Institute of Architects) & IUA (Union Internationaledes Architects): “Sustainable design integratesconsiderations of resource &energy efficiency, healthybuildings & materials, ecologically& socially sensitive land use, anaesthetic sensitivity thatinspires,affirms, & ennobles …”

  3. How can “Sustainable Design” be achieved? • By daylighting issues, which is one small part of larger picture: • Energy & environment • Formal & aesthetic implications • Human implications

  4. How can “Sustainable Design” be achieved? • Daylight can maintain human’s biologic rhythms & connections to rhythms in nature. • Biological needs for daylight • Seasonal affective disorder (SAD) • Rickets – deficiency of vitamin D • 15 minutes of sunlight sufficient • Use of phototherapy • Time-related cycles • Colour for therapeutic benefit

  5. How can “Sustainable Design” be achieved? • Experience of timethrough light • Physical response • Emotional sensation • Cannot be quantifiedor measured

  6. How can “Sustainable Design” be achieved? • Visual comfort • Sick building syndrome • Building-relatedillnesses • Computer visionsyndrome • Eye & vision problemsrelated to near work • during computer use • Quality of life

  7. How can “Sustainable Design” be achieved? • By bioregional approach, which describes how a specific region influences daylighting : • Sun path • Sky conditions • Nature of site • Climate

  8. How can “Sustainable Design” be achieved? • Seasons, which influences daylighting • Impact of summer & wintersolstices; fall & springequinoxes • Solstice • Longest day of year(21 June) • Shortest day of year(21 December) • Equinox (equal night) • Two times of year whenlength of day & nightapproximately equal(21 March & 21 September) • Northern & southernhemisphere

  9. How can “Sustainable Design” be achieved? • Geographic locations and its climate zones, which influences daylighting • Hot arid climate • Minimize heat gain • Control glare • Relief & protection fromintense sunlight • Hot humid climate • Maximum ventilation • Maximum control of heat • Maximum control ofdirect sunlight

  10. How can “Sustainable Design” be achieved? • Geographic locations and its climate zones, which influences daylighting • Temperate climate • Greater flexibility • Modest temperatures • Modest seasonal changes • Greater connections inside to outside • Cold climate • Tremendous seasonalchanges: temperature,precipitation, & skyconditions

  11. How can “Sustainable Design” be achieved? • Spatial location inbuilding • Interaction of light & form • According to Kahn: “Light is mood.” • Colour characteristics • Overcast day • Clear Sky

  12. How can “Sustainable Design” be achieved? • Architectural consideration of daylight • Factors that affect flow oflight: • Building massing • Plan • Section • Window design

  13. How can “Sustainable Design” be achieved? • Architectural consideration of daylight • Building massing: • Linear forms • Central forms • Clustered forms PalmettoResidence, SouthernFlorida: Hot-Humid

  14. How can “Sustainable Design” be achieved? • Architectural consideration of daylight • Plan & Section: • Room depth & height • Room surfaces & characteristics • Ceiling characteristics PalmettoResidence, SouthernFlorida: Hot-Humid

  15. How can “Sustainable Design” be achieved? • Architectural consideration of daylight • Windows: • Size • Location • Position on wall • Orientation • Detailing Mt. Airy Library, North Carolina
