Daylighting Education with Dr. Doug Milburn

  • Summary

  • Great buildings need a connection to the outdoors, one that is only achieved through the use of glass. Uncontrolled sunlight causes glare and overheating that can make an otherwise beautiful space painful to be in. New building energy codes can block your way. So Dr. Doug Milburn of Advanced Glazings Ltd created Solera® a line of highly insulating light diffusing glass.

    What you should consider about Daylighting Education.

    • Daylighting done well produces visual comfort. Glare is eliminated. Light intensity is even. Eyes never strain to reveal detail in a space.
    • Daylighting done well doesn’t compromise the thermal efficiency of a building envelope. With the right product, daylighting can actually enhance thermal efficiency.
    • Daylighting done well permits sunlight to penetrate deep within a space, not merely along its perimeter. Glare caused by the sharp contrast between light and dark is eliminated, creating well-lit interiors for occupants.
    • Daylighting done well comes in the form of insulated translucent glazings that provide the highest thermal performance requirements with a very small environmental footprint.
    • Daylighting done well should not necessitate the use of costly passive daylighting controls such as interior blinds or exterior sunshades.

    Dr. Doug Milburn is the founder of Advanced Glazings Ltd. He talks to me about his knowledge and passion to create the best possible environment for students to learn. We discuss how this can be achieved and the technology available with his product Solera.
