What is Daylight Openings and Energy Efficiency about?

Openings such as windows, doors, and skylights allow daylight into buildings but can also introduce thermal losses if not designed properly. It is recommended to use many openings on the south facade and limit openings on other facades. Daylight provides visual and psychological benefits but excessive daylight can cause overheating, so shading devices are important. Different types of windows, skylights, clerestories, and light reflectors can optimize the distribution of daylight within buildings.
