Day Light Model













The optimal positioning is the ribbed wall facing south. This provides a clear way finding pathway of light. This position provides maximum sun exposure. The west includes a thin linear opening and bevelled window illuminated by afternoon and evening light. The arched light shelf/skylight controls day light and provides the directional tool. The east side is for viewing the model and the North side is a flat wall to catch light and shadow. We achieved multilateral lighting through 4 openings and the curved light shelf diffuses light through the space. Inspiration cam from: Jorn Utzon-the curved shelf  and curved structural pieces.
Calatrava-sculptural elements, and light reflectance through staggering structures.
