| 總結: | The benefits of daylight in buildings are known: a better quality of lighting when compared to artificial lighting, reduction of electrical energy consumption, positive impact on productivity and performance, well-being and comfort of users and the discovery of its influence on circadian rhythms in the early 2000s. These benefits justify the inclusion of issues related to the use of daylight in the early phases of the architectural design, when important building variables are defined, such as orientation, volumetry, ambient layout, openings, and shading. However, the architect's education in daylighting issues rarely goes beyond a basic approach. Design tools and methodologies are needed to support decisions regarding daylighting in the early stages of the design process. A Systematic Literature Review was developed to identify how much and in what way issues of daylighting are being addressed in studies that deal with the architectural design process. 21 papers were selected from four relevant databases from 2012 to 2017, written in Portuguese, Spanish, and English. We found that it is essential in the initial phase of the project, a trained eye of the designer based on knowledge of the aspects of daylight to deal with natural lighting issues in the design process, leaving for later stages, the use of software simulation for quantitative analysis. |
