Sky Light Sky Bright -- In the Office
• ScienceDaily.com Working under the open sky -- it sounds enticing, but it's
seldom really a practical option. Now, a dynamic luminous ceiling
brings the sky into office spaces by creating the effect of passing
clouds. This kind of lighting generates a pleasant working environment.
As the wind swiftly blows clouds across the sky, the light is in a constant state of change. The feeling of spaciousness and freedom we experience outdoors is exactly what researchers from the Stuttgart-based Fraunhofer Institute for Industrial Engineering IAO replicate indoors: a luminous ceiling that extends across the entire room simulates lighting conditions which resemble those produced by passing clouds -- conveying the impression that you are sitting outdoors.
