Abstract

As a clean sustainable source of lighting, daylight is currently the subject of rigorous studies. It has been demonstrated that daylight is not only a source of lighting, but also important in physiological and biopsychology of human beings. Although current knowledge on this subject is at its prime, there are still some design recommendations to achieve adequate daylight in buildings.
