NATURAL LIGHT & VIEWS Why is natural light important to students? Improved natural light in schools has been shown to : • reduce disruption to Circadian Rhythm • increases test scores • decreases near-sightedness • keeps students alert H M F H A R C H I T E C T S
NATURAL LIGHT & VIEWS Strategies for Increasing Daylit Area Extensive daylight transmission through highly transparent glass t h g i l e l b i s i v Sloped, highly-reflective ceiling brings daylight into the building reducing energy use Ultra high-efficiency light fixture w/daylight dimming Heat-mirror shading keeps heat out in the High windows and 85% summer reflective light shelf to bounce light deep into the classroom Triple glazing w/argon Light-reflecting walls improves thermal performance Windows located near corners reduce dark areas H M F H A R C H I T E C T S
NATURAL LIGHT & VIEWS Where is natural light coming from? The suns behavior is site and time specifjc • the sun is higher in the sky in the summer and lower in winter • the sun moves through the southern sky • there is more northern exposure in the summer than the winter Noon June 21 Noon December 21 Sunset: 4:14 PM South West Sunset: 8:23 PM More annual sun exposure Sunrise: 7:08 AM North East Less annual sun exposure Sunrise: 5:07 PM H M F H A R C H I T E C T S

NATURAL LIGHT & VIEWS Why is reducing glare Important? Excessive solar glare: • interferes with technology screens and marker- boards making reading from them difficult • is distracting and uncomfortable, affecting students ability to take in information. • causes headaches and eye pain with prolonged exposure H M F H A R C H I T E C T S

NATURAL LIGHT & VIEWS Access to Exterior Views Visual connections to exterior views: • can reduce absenteeism • can increase patience and increased task enthusiasm • provide rest for eyes which is useful when long amounts of time are spent looking at screens. H M F H A R C H I T E C T S
