Approach Detail
Maximize north-facing glazing (or skylights with diffusing glazing) for even, glare-free daylight. Install motorized shading for intensity control. Electric lighting in warm-dim or tunable white, positioned to supplement not compete with natural. Program: sunrise classes use mostly natural; evening classes transition to full electric. Shading automation tracks solar position.
Capture interplay of natural and electric light. Morning class with streaming daylight. Evening class with warm artificial glow. Transitions should feel natural. Show yoga practitioners in beautiful, varied light.
