The Bright environments: Daylight in Sustainable Building Design Conference invites researchers and practitioners to discuss current challenges in the use and control of daylight in buildings.
We hope for scientific as well as application-oriented contributions, potentially taking human-centered approaches, in areas as suggested by the following, non-exclusive list:
- Daylight utilization and its effects on energy-demand;
- Visual comfort, glare, and other subjective response to daylight;
- Behavior with regard to daylight, definition of patterns or personas;
- Daylight effects on health and well-being;
- Information transported by daylight, perception, view, and view content;
- Cross-domain effects of daylight utilization in buildings;
- Technologies and design strategies to utilize daylight in buildings;
- Modeling and optimization for daylight performance, interfaces to data science, potential application of machine learning;
- Innovative description of daylight conditions, e.g. by novel metrics or virtual / augmented reality;
- Integration of daylight and artificial lighting;
- Relation between daylight in buildings and exterior, covered or open spaces, vegetation and landscape;
- Daylight at different scales and relation to urban design
- Innovative case studies, reports by practicioners.
Please submit your abstract (max. 500 words) directly through the linked web form.
Presenters will be invited to submit a manuscript after the conference for online publication if passing a peer review. For details, please refer to the instructions for abstract submission.
