Abstract
This paper evaluates the daylighting performance of
a prototype external dynamic integrated shading and
light redirecting system. The demonstration project
was carried out on a building with an open-plan
office. The prototype and original façades were
placed on the same floor with the same orientation
and similar surroundings. The existing façade was
used as the reference for measurements and
simulations. The focus of this research project was to
employ available simulation tools for the system
performance evaluation. This was accompanied by
measurements of the daylight conditions in the
investigated space. The prototype system improved
daylighting conditions compared to the existing
shading system.
