The book explores advanced building-facade daylighting design practices based on diverse energy and human-factor performance metrics. It also defines effective daylighting by rethinking the simplified approach to glazing and facade systems to incorporate the local climate and the needs of building occupants as critical drivers of building performance, design solutions and technological innovation. It discusses state-of-the-art approaches in the context of simulation-based design workflows, innovative technologies and real project case studies, all targeting low and net-zero energy solutions that enhance occupant comfort. Readers benefit from a comprehensive approach that improves the feedback loop between design intent and performance in use. The book is intended for architects, lighting designers, facade engineers, manufacturers and building owners/operators, as well as advanced students.
The Challenge of Effective Daylighting.- The Role of Metrics in Performance-based Design.- Innovative Daylighting Systems.- A Performance-based Design and Delivery Process.- Case Studies.- Validating Performance from the Perspective of End Users.
Defines requirements for daylighting that acknowledge the needs and behaviors of the building's inhabitants for long-term effective solutions
Provides specific, climate and program-based energy and human factors to clearly identify performance objectives for designers
Discusses a range of technologies and methods in a performance-based context using simulations and real-project case studies
Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
