Why is natural light important to students?NATURAL LIGHT & VIEWS
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
Strategies for Increasing Daylit Area
Sloped, highly-re�ective ceiling brings daylight into the building reducing energy use
Ultra high-ef�ciency light �xture w/daylight dimming
Light-re�ecting walls
High windows and 85% re�ective light shelf to bounce light deep into the classroom
Extensive daylight transmission through highly transparent glass
Heat-mirror shading keeps heat out in the summer
Triple glazing w/argon improves thermal performance
visible light
Windows located near corners reduce dark areas

More annual sun exposure
Less annual sun exposure
NATURAL LIGHT & VIEWS
The suns behavior is site and time specific • 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

Spacial Daylight Autonomy
Spacial Daylight Autonomy - a model simulation that projects the percentage of time during a given period that a point receives the specified illuminance.
Given period - September-June, 7am - 4pm (school year)Specified illuminance - 30 foot candles (recommended classroom light level)

Why is reducing glare Important?NATURAL LIGHT & VIEWS
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

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.
