Впродовж більшої частини історії людства сили природи безпосередньо впливали на форму наших будов. Глибоке розуміння природного освітлення і його цільове використання завжди робили значний вплив на дизайн будівель. Але з розвитком і розповсюдженням таких технологій, як недороге штучне освітлення, центральне опалювання і системи кондиціонування повітря, вплив сил природи на архітектурний дизайн ослабів. На щастя, даний період підійшов до кінця. Використання природного освітлення і, як наслідок, ретельне планування розташування внутрішніх стін вже дозволило оцінити вигоди світлового дизайну.
