Abstract
Creating a well-lit environment requires the understanding of daylight and electric lighting design principles within the built environment. Recent years have brought a large number of new lighting assessment and design methods. The discovery of new photoreceptor cells in the eye - photosensitive retinal ganglion cells - forced lighting researchers to focus on parametrisation for the image forming (IF) and non-image forming (NIF) effects of light. This triggered the re-evaluation and redefinition of an occupant’s requirements for lighting. This brought a challenge as to how to introduce novel lighting concepts into practice. A survey-based study involving 140 architecture students focused on the challenges and barriers to daylight education. In this article are presented selected results of the survey from three different universities in Poland. The results indicate that one barrier to lighting education is a lack of knowledge about contemporary daylight assessment methods and that changes are needed to bridge gaps in daylight education for architects.
