Daylight Design Guides for specific living spaces
Every space serves different occupants — and different needs. Access targeted lux recommendations and layout strategies for every application:
Navigate EN 17037 with architectural clarity
Ensure your projects meet the European Standard for daylight in buildings (EN 17037).
- Achieve target illuminance levels of 300, 500 or 750 lux across 50% of the work plane area.
- Learn how to evaluate performance through climate-based simulations or daylight factor methods tailored to your region.
- Understand why targeted top lighting improves daylight autonomy and distribution compared to façade-only solutions.
