Hirs, Jiri, Mohelnikova, Jitka, Brotas, Luisa, Filla, Josef, Selucka, Alena and Dvorak, Martin (2017) Daylight study in a chateau hall. In: PLEA 2017 Conference: Design to thrive, 2-5 July 2017, Edinburgh (UK).
An analysis of the influence of natural light on the interior of a historically protected premises is presented. A case study of daylighting in a residential hall in a chateau focuses on the assessment of illuminance levels in accordance with requirements for light exposure. Light sensitive materials as paintings and claddings and tapestries as well as furniture upholstery should be protected against direct solar radiation and the influence of light. Long period of intense light exposure causes damage to these materials. The chateau interior daylight level was studied using light simulation outputs carried out for different external conditions. Daylight simulations undertaken with the Velux Daylight Visualizer software were completed for a set of sky models from overcast to partly cloudy and clear sky conditions.
