Abstract
This paper describes findings from a workshop during which participants evaluated a series of windowviews. An explorative approach was applied to identify issues and testing methods useful in daylightresearch. The participants visited nine rooms with views of varied content, complexity, and viewingdistance under the overcast sky. Participants used surveys with quantitative and qualitative questions,hand drawings, illuminance measurements, and photography to appraise the view quality.Subsequently, daylight simulations and neurocognitive tests have been carried out in two rooms with“bad” and “good” views. Multi-directional views were valued more than narrow or single-directionalviews. The cognitive testing showed numerical differences in several measures and a significant correla-tion between the difference scores for sadness and the difference scores for Trail Making Test-B acrosstwo rooms. The study identified that buildings of historical value, a presence of greenery, coloredbuilding facades, or a presence of people (content) contribute to a positive assessment of the view but are not included in the assessment criteria.
