The dark autumn is currently replaced by white snow and frosty winter wonderland in Denmark, and we had to reschedule several of our field visits a few hours to map the domestic lighting of our participants. Next week we are heading to even colder temperatures in Stockholm where we are pleased to share our initial work at the Light Symposium 2023.

BUILD, Aalborg University is represented by four delegates and four papers.

Nanet Mathiasen and Anne Kathrine Frandsen share their work on the daylight pavilion that have been an attraction in Copenhagen during this summer and fall together with Louise Grønlund and Pernille Sørensen, from the Royal Danish Academy – Architecture, Design, Conservation: "Poetic Daylight – a pavilion for the perception of daylight".

Nanet and Turid Borgestrand Øien have together with Carlo Volf from Copenhagen University Hospitals, the paper “Empathic Lighting Design for Healthcare Environments”, on the findings from a pilotstudy at Bispebjerg Hospital.

Turid and Jeanette Bremer Nielsen from the Center for Special Education, CSU-Slagelse have written a paper, “Lighting assessment in low-vision rehabilitation: Implementing N-Lited”, presenting an ongoing implementation project scaling the lighting assessment of Better Light Better Living to seven low-vision rehabilitation.

And finally, Nanet, Anne Kathrine and Turid, together with Senja Ruohonen and Annette Bredmose share the initial work in the project “The role of light when vision changes” in the paper entitled: “Situating the light: Methodology for sensory and spatial fieldwork”.

We will share more of this work soon on this webpage.
