Abstract
It is often necessary to provide a room with natural light from the Sun or the sky. The qualities of this natural light may be thought desirable for a pleasant environment or they may be needed to perform certain tasks, such as exacting work with colour. The natural light can be used as the sole source of interior lighting or can be combined with artificial light.
