Beyond Alvar Aalto - The future of natural light within a world of electrified architecture.
In this bonus episode Jackson and Antony depart from Aalto that was discussed in last episode and discuss the role of daylight design in contemporary buildings. We venture into the meaning of architecture, the art of daylighting and the rise of electric lighting to satisfy people’s needs for light and control in spaces. The future of daylight might be less obvious as lighting design and lighting controls give greater certainty to lighting outcomes. But can electric lighting ever give us what daylight gives us in architecture? Find out what Jackson and Antony think will be the future of lighting design and architecture in the 21st century.
