What is visual comfort? The absence of visual discomfort = no occupant complaints .
A more nuanced way to describe visual comfort is the balance between visualliabilities:
o Glareo Veiling reflectanceso Lack of privacy
and visual assets:o Viewo Access to daylighto Visual connection to the outside

What is glare? Glare is a subjective human sensation that describes ‘light within the field ofvision that is brighter than the brightness to which the eyes are adapted’(HarperCollins 2002).

Visual Comfort
The human eye can see across twelve orders of magnitude. We can adapt to about 2-3 orders of magnitude at a time via the iris. Larger ranges take time and require ‘neural adaptation’.

Types of GlareGenerally we are distinguishing between three types of glare:
Disability Glare: Glare that precludes a person from seeing an object. An examplemight be the inability of a lifeguard to see all swimmers in a pool.
Discomfort Glare: An occupant can still see all objects of interest within a scene butthe overall brightness or luminance contrast within a scene cause strain of the eyewhich – over times- might lead to discomfort, premature tiring of the eye and othereffects.
Veiling Reflections: The latter is really a subset of the former two and correspondsto times when reflectances of specular surfaces act as glare sources.

Glare Indices
Daylight glare probability formula
A glare index is a numerical evaluation ofhigh dynamic range images using amathematical formula that has been derivedfrom human subject studies. Example indicesinclude the unified glare rating (UGR) and thedaylight glare index (DGI).
Daylight glare probability (DGP) is becomingincreasingly widely used. DGP was developedbased on HDR photography measurementscombined with human subject evaluations.

Daylight Glare Probability (DGP)
DGP is a recently proposed discomfort glare index that was derived byWienold and Christoffersen from laboratory studies in daylit spaces using 72test subjects in Denmark and Germany.
Two identical, side-by-side test rooms were used. In Room 1 a CCD camerabased luminance mapping technology was installed at the exact same position andorientation as the head of the human subject in Room 2.

Long-Term Visual Comfort

Integrate glare model predicts long-term comfort evaluations with an accuracy of 73% to 87%, depending on the time of day.
For Gund Hall it was found that the students tolerated: disturbing glare for 4% of time; direct sunlight (vertical eye illuminance > 1000lux) for 5% and reduced contrast (CR<4) for up to 24%
Main idea: It does not have to be comfortable all the time for people to be satisfied with a space.

Views A view is a universally recognized asset in architecture and real estate.
Benefits of a window include occupants’ ability to focus on a faraway point to a direct link to the outside world.
It seems surprising that there are no well established metrics to evaluate a view.
A view requires: direct lines of sight between an inside observer and select outside objects content since views work two ways, a view may become a privacy concern

multiple directions that span an angle of at least 90º . The view contains objects of interest including flora
and fauna or moving objects such as people. Interior view of a vision glazing must be unobstructed
as evidenced by either distance to the buildingperimeter or a more detailed view factor ratingpromoted by the California Energy Commission.
