Daylighting performance with courtyard design variant on occupant wellbeing in a tropical climate

In a tropical climate, the abundance of natural daylighting can illuminate an internal space, and it is an effective passive design strategy that provides energy savings for buildings. natural daylighting was widely used in all building settings before the innovation of artificial lighting, due to t...
