The Importance of Natural Light

Whether you’re building new or renovating, the importance of a design that incorporates natural light cannot be overstated.

Natural lighting offers several important benefits.

From a health perspective, various studies have shown that ample natural lighting increases comfort and productivity. An important consideration if you’re working from home. Natural lighting can also help with sleep patterns, daylight has been shown to have beneficial impacts on the regulation of human circadian rhythms, which is vital for good quality, consistent sleep.

Natural light can also help to remove stale odours from rooms or, more importantly, stop them from developing in the first place.

Natural lighting makes rooms feel more spacious and expansive. Creating a warm, inviting feel.

Many designers and architects will also point to the energy-saving potential from the use of natural light, but it’s important to keep in mind that the key to that energy saving is good design. A room that lets in sunlight, but also lets in heat in the summer, can actually lead to higher energy consumption, as air-conditioners are needed to combat the rising heat. The design of each room and interior space needs to allow daylight for illumination, but not the associated heat build-up.
