Daylight and Passive Solar Design
Working closely with architects and interior designers, we create bespoke solutions to maximise daylight and optimize energy resource use in terms of artificial light.
Natural daylight within a building creates a dynamic unlike any other within architecture. It can make the difference between a successful build with happy and healthy occupants and a building which will suffer from sick building syndrome.
We have developed an array of techniques and technical assessments to determine how a building performs in relation to the natural light it receives. Using weather data and sky conditions throughout the year we can predict the likely energy loads as a result of artificial lighting. Suggestions can then be made to improve the natural lighting availability to reduce energy loads.
