Abstract

This paper introduces a novel computational method for mapping indoor luminance values to the facade of an open workplace to improve its daylight performance. 180-degree fisheye renderings from different locations, view positions, and times of the year are created. These renderings are then transformed from two-dimensional (2D) images into three-dimensional (3D) hemispheres. High luminance values are filtered and projected from the hemisphere to the facade design. This framework will highlight the areas of the facade that allow too much light penetration into the interior environment. This study introduces a flexible framework that allows for an occupant-centric lighting analysis to compute multiple design parameters and synthesize results based on luminance values mapped on the facade design for localized performance optimization to improve facade performance.
