A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
In our May-June issue last year, the author - who is director of the Lighting Research Unit in the Architectural Faculty of the University of New South Wales, Australia - described the unit's work on the use of a prismatic panel to beam daylight into buildings. Here she puts this research into context with a review of developments world-wide which aim to make the best use of windows in building design, both to save energy costs and improve the visual environment.
