Light is one of the most powerful materials available to an architect. It changes constantly and gives a space a different character throughout the day.
Light is never static
The position and size of openings, the depth of a wall and the direction of a room can completely change the quality of natural light.
Instead of treating daylight as something that simply enters a building, it can be carefully shaped and directed.
Designing the movement of light
Shadows, reflections and changing levels of brightness can establish transitions between spaces and create a stronger sense of time.
