Beskrivning
This book brings together the work of leading architects and scientists to explore how sustainable buildings can significantly reduce CO2 emissions, enhance energy efficiency for financial savings, and improve occupant comfort through effective daylighting and shading in contemporary construction practices. It provides a historical analysis of daylighting and shading in the architectural design of both commercial and residential buildings. The book emphasizes the importance of natural lighting and efficient glazing systems and discusses how these systems relate to the physical and mental well-being of building occupants. It illustrates how effective daylighting and shading strategies can help achieve sustainability goals and yield financial benefits by reducing reliance on concrete and steel and minimizing artificial lighting and excessive electricity consumption.
