Original Abstract

The light plays crucial role in forming the architectural experience and my interest is to examine how architects create bridges between the poetic and practical potential of light. A critical discussion about this topic is relevant especially in relation to the perceived lighting environment and role of light in today's architecture. How was the role of light changing in our society during historical periods? What is the role of light in architecture nowadays? Which architectural experience supports this role and what are the tools to capture it? Different ideas about light, linked to the aesthetic sense of successive historical periods lead to differently configured spaces. Understanding the enjoyment of the experience of spaces in history, but also today and determining its aesthetic value requires attention to details. Architecture can shape our daily experiences in material and detail and together with light form the basis of complete perception. I believe that consistent work with daylight in architecture is a catalyst for change and can significantly help us rediscover the relationship with nature. I believe, that by raising awareness about experiential approaches of working with a daylight will help us to find our way back to nature, origins and rise quality of architectural objects.
