daylightoptimized
Daylightoptimized is a design methodology and software framework dedicated to optimizing daylight usage in buildings. It aims to maximize the amount of useful daylight reaching interior spaces while minimizing glare, overheating, and energy use, through coordinated adjustments to façade geometry, shading devices, interior layouts, and surface properties.
It uses a data-driven workflow combining climate data, site constraints, occupancy assumptions, and daylight metrics such
Implementation typically involves integration with established simulation tools such as Radiance for daylight modeling, Daysim for
Limitations include dependency on representative climate data and occupancy patterns, potential computational cost, and the need
