I balance the internal biological clock in
humans, increase healing times in hospitals, improve workplace productivity,
fight depression and increase sales, I also inspire...I do this by encouraging views
to the outside world that optimize the amount of natural daylight that can
access me. These views are sure to be beautiful because I have planted native
plants to repair and protect the environment around me, attracting an entire
healthy ecosystem of birds, animals and beneficial insects. At the same time, in
optimizing the amount of daylight that can access me I use less electric
lighting energy.
On a daily basis I juggle energy efficiency and occupant
comfort. I can prevent cancer, chronicasthma, and chronicobstructive pulmonary
disease, acute reactions, such as eye, nose and throat irritation…I do this by
ensuringmy inhabitants breathe fresh, clean, natural air, and have reduced exposure
to harmful pollutants from off-gassing of materials, paints, adhesives,
furniture, and insulation. I encourage occupants to take public transport
and/or ride bikes to work by providing them with appropriate bicycle
facilities. During my creation, I also protected my creators by ensuring their
exposure to harmful pollutants was minimized through air filtration,
minimization of dust creation and by selecting parts of my composition that
would not harm them.
