For architects, designers, lighting specialists and builders, this guide presents a comprehensive overview of techniques and processes for including natural light in structural design. Designed to be conceptually accessible to lay readers while providing useful, in-depth, technical information for design professionals, the work is divided into sections covering criteria of good lighting, what light does, climate, daylight and building form, energy use, standards and design guidance, illumination, windows, light pipes and skylights, and daylight coefficients and numerical models. Chapters include numerous color photographs illustrating key lighting concepts and conditions as well as technical drawings and formula that outline the design and construction of specific practical natural lighting features. Appendices include a collection of worksheets for calculating light conditions and a detailed explanation of the algorithms and equations used throughout the text. Tregenza is professor emeritus of architecture at the University of Sheffield and Wilson is a research fellow in architecture and the built environment at the University of Westminster, UK.
