Beyond Energy Efficiency in Architecture. New Challenges and Research Trajectories for Buildings and the Built Environment
Visual comfort can affect building occupants’ behaviour, productivity and health. It is
highly dependent on the occupant and how they perform a task indoors. In that regard, an occupant
centred approach is more suitable for evaluating the lighting perception of the indoor environment.
Nevertheless, the process of rating and estimating the visual comfort makes a limited distinction
between physiological differences (e.g., ageing eye, light sensitivity), field of view, and personal
preferences, which have been proven to influence the occupants’ lighting needs to complete their tasks
