Project Description
Due to the endless growth of cities and the need to build high-rise towers to accommodate the also-growing urban population, quality of natural lighting at the lower stories of buildings is being neglected, becoming gloomy and shady. Having loss of luminosity in these urban areas has exposed pedestrians not only to a lower quality of life, but also to be victims of increased crime on the streets. To improve this situation and, consequently, to create urban spaces with better and safer social interaction, we propose a novel lighting system to brighten the bottom inter-areas of high rises.
