Why is light important to us?

According to the Danish Health Authority, light has a direct impact on our circadian rhythm and biological clock. When our eyes detect light, messages are sent to the brain to regulate our internal clock. This affects, among other things, our sleep-wake cycle, mood and general well-being. In addition, lack of exposure to daylight can have negative consequences for our health and well-being.

Daylight and human biology

According to a report from the Danish Building Research Institute, daylight has a direct impact on our biological processes. When we are exposed to natural light, our bodies produce the hormone serotonin, which is known to regulate mood and sleep. In addition, daylight is essential for the production of vitamin D, which is important for our bone health and immune system.

Architectural lighting design with biological effect

Research shows that architectural lighting design can have a positive biological effect on our bodies. By integrating light sources that mimic natural daylight, we can create a healthier and more comfortable indoor climate. This can be particularly relevant for public and private buildings where people spend large parts of their time.
