| There is hot
and there is Texas hot the sun is extremely strong. The design of the
daylight galleries intended to be bathed in light used a component of
direct sunlight (rather than shading it all out). Thus we needed to know how
sunlight would filter through the layers of the building envelope, how much
light there would be in the interior and how it would vary daily and
seasonally. All of the above aspects are interlinked. The limited time
available for design acted as a driver in the techniques we used to keep pace
with the evolution of the design. |
