A project team for a retail project wants to increase the daylighting of the store to offset energy costs and provide more natural light to display products. What strategies are not as important to the design of this project?
A: Direct beam penetration
B: Vision glazing
C: Interior color schemes
D: Integration with the electric lighting system

参考答案: B

Note the question contains the word NOT.

The vision glazing would not be as important because the focus is on the customers seeing the products using daylight not the customers looking outside to see a good view.

Interior color schemes define what colors the surfaces (walls, ceilings) will be painted. Bright white is much more likely to reflect sunlight and cause glare. Black surfaces will absorb light and make the room darker, requiring more powered lighting for tasks.

Direct beam penetration would help increase the daylighting, thus decreasing energy costs and allowing more natural light to display products. Direct beam penetration is simply having more sunshine come through the windows directly compared to using light shelves.
