“…However, in ancient and historical heritage buildings light exposition must be reduced as much as possible to maintain sufficient visibility but minimize damage of light-sensitive materials [33,34]. It appears reasonable that historical monuments and architecturally valuable interiors should have a controlled daylighting strategy [35].…”

Assessment of daylighting in the residential hall of a historical chateau is presented. The evaluation is based on both the daylight measurement and simulations. Illuminance levels in the interior were controlled in accordance with requirements for light exposition of light sensitive materials. Valuable paintings and claddings as well as wallpapers and furniture upholstery in the hall are extremely light sensitive and they need to be protected from light damage. The daylight measurements and simulations give an overview of daylight conditions in the annual profile for clear sky conditions and for different levels of window shadings.

“…The mosque facade in Malaysia functions to protect the indoor spaces from direct sunlight. The building façade could affect the occupant's visual comfort inside the mosque(Abdullah et al, 2016).Apart from opening types and design, it was found that bright or white colour surfaces could enhance and reflect the natural daylight into interior building spaces(Belakehal et al, 2016).The orientation of main prayer hall is determined by the Qiblat direction, which for Malaysia is North-West direction.…”

This study aims to investigate the daylight performance of Colonial Mosques in Malaysia. The first objective of this study is to identify passive daylighting strategies from colonial mosques. The second objective of this study is to evaluate the daylight performance of the colonial mosques. The research methodology consisted of table research, field observation, and daylight analysis simulation of the prayer hall in the Colonial Mosques, using Sefaira daylighting simulation software. The results have shown that the daylight in Colonial Mosques was affected by the building orientation, shading elements, window to wall ratio, and window type. In conclusion, the clerestory window type enhances indoor daylight performance.
