THE CREATIVE AND SYMBOLIC FUNCTIONS OF DAYLIGHT IN THE ART MUSEUM BUILDINGS OF THE 21st CENTURY

Abstract

The paper presents the results of the study on the current extent of daylight use in contemporary buildings of art museums, focusing especially on the possibilities of aesthetic function. A case study and critical analysis were used as the research method. Selected, representative examples of museums of the 21st century are discussed with regard to the creative and functional use of daylight and the application of advanced technology. The analyses showed that the most interesting and spectacular examples of daylight influence do not only concern the exhibition area, but also those places associated with it. Apart from having spectacular architectural form emphasized by the play of light, museums attract visitors by the way they are illuminated to create attractive and friendly space open to the public. The flow of light and transparency of materials, as well as the brightness, diversity and variability of lighting conditions at a particular time of day and year are essential.
