Abstract

Day-lighting is correlated to the optimum output of the specific purpose of any interior space for which the building infrastructure is constructed. When it comes about designing a studio for student of architecture, it becomes more important because of its connection to creative work. The close link between daylight and productivity is evident from many literatures. However, due to the availability of electricity and provision of different artificial lighting, natural lighting strategies became negligible by designers. But with the rising concern of achieving sustainability, designers now try to revitalize day-lighting strategies in building construction. For this purpose, we need to evaluate the current situation of a space and find out the problem. This paper focuses to evaluate the current day-lighting quality of an architecture studio at two different days: one is typical clear sky day and another is overcast sky day. The finding indicates that adequate windows are provided in this studio which causes it illuminate within range during typical clear sky days but artificial lighting is required when the sky is over casted. Key Words: lighting, studio, illuminance level, window
