Unquestionably, hospital patient rooms require a proper lighting design. Dissimilar to cultural and artistic settings, where artistic discourse on light has significant importance, in medical settings, the most crucial conversation refers to standards. Research indicates that light in hospital settings has an impact on a patient's physical and mental health. Effective lighting in medical settings can enhance the hospital's positive experience and the speed at which patients recover from their diseases. It can also increase staff attentiveness and productivity. It is also critical to consider reducing electricity consumption in hospital settings that require lighting 24/7. Due to the high cost of lighting, access to natural light in combination with time-of-day controls minimizes energy consumption when daylight is available and impacts the hospital's bottom line. The effect of light on hospital users was investigated in this article; therefore, it is important to understand both natural and artificial light sources in this regard. Natural light has many benefits for humans, and when it comes to electricity consumption, it is the best method because it is a free source; but, since natural light is not always available and cannot be used throughout the day, there is a need to have an artificial light source that gives the best lighting effect in terms of visual comfort and visual performance for users. Secondly, proper artificial light sources can reduce electricity consumption; hence, these two critical aspects were underlined in this study. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
