What is
The Daylight Award?
The Daylight Award honors and supports daylight research and daylight in architecture.
It acknowledges and encourages scientific knowledge and practical application of daylight, which interlink disciplines that are usually addressed in separated, monocultural spheres, professional circles or practices.
