| Abstract | ||||
| Recently, many researchers have been interested in designing the buildings to get the benefit from daylight inside, which saves a lot of building consumption for artificial lighting, which gives visual and thermal comfort and also contributes to reducing costs. But a few of them were interested in how to modify the designs of the existing educational spaces that did not reach daylight, which increases the consumption of these spaces for industrial lighting and gives a lack of a sense of visual and thermal comfort, and that is inconsistent with the principles of designing educational spaces that aim to reach the maximum visual comfort for the student, which helps in raising the performance of the student during the educational process. Therefore, this research will cover possible retrofits of daylight with existing educational spaces using modern daylight techniques to reach the visual comfort which students need. | ||||
