Light Architecture: The Future of Nonhuman Spaces via Circular Thinking for Urban Lifestyle

Rasa Navasaityte

Design Light architecture is a concept that explores the potential of using light to reduce the carbon footprint of buildings and improve urban spaces. This approach focuses on the role of light in shaping buildings and cities, and the ways in which it can be used to create more sustainable and livable environments. The lighting of buildings has always played a determining role in the form of building typologies. The depth of natural lighting, and the standards derived from it, long limited the dimensions of building typologies to the depth of two mirrored living rooms. The endless dimensions of 20th‐century warehouses and similar buildings were unthinkable without artificial lighting, expanding human sight for work, play, and navigation. Artificial intelligence (AI) will add a new complex play of forms by expanding the spectra of light. In the orchestration of complex networks, light becomes the flow of information and energy: photo and synthesis.

Design processes in architecture and urban design are constantly evolving, driven by new technologies and changing societal needs. In the field of architecture, the increasing focus on reducing carbon footprint has prompted designers to find new ways of designing spaces that are both environmentally friendly and appealing to humans. This has led to the exploration of new urban perspectives, where non‐human spaces are integrated ...
