The Solarspot® tubular daylighting system is a valuable and effective solution for professionals working in the construction and architectural design sectors. Solarspot® captures, transports and diffuses natural daylight into indoor spaces, bringing with it all the benefits this precious resource has to offer.

 

Natural light (Pattern 6 in 14 Patterns of Biophilic Design, Terrapin Bright Green LLC, 2014) is one of the cornerstones of biophilia, which Wilson describes as “the innate tendency of human beings to focus their attention on forms of life and on everything that reminds them of life and, in certain circumstances, to form emotional bonds with them.”

 

At the heart of biophilia lies the relationship between humans and nature.

​

By incorporating nature and its manifestations into the design process, biophilia opens up new horizons, rethinking spaces around the physical and psychological well-being of those who inhabit, live, study and work in enclosed environments.

 

Natural daylight therefore becomes an essential element of architectural design, influencing the perception of true colours within indoor spaces, the sense of depth and spatial perception, learning and productivity, human circadian rhythms, and the perception of the passage of time.

Solarspot® systems bring natural daylight indoors and, thanks also to the carefully selected technologies and materials used in their manufacture, deliver the full range of benefits associated with this natural light source. They thus represent an important element of biophilic design, supporting thoughtful daylight planning that respects individuals’ restorative needs and promotes their overall well-being.
