Light on Two Sides of Every Room
Think about the place in your home where you most like to sit. Where is the light coming from? Odds are, it's coming from two sides of the room. You can reproduce that effect in your own architecture, thanks to the Light on Two Sides of Every Room pattern.
The easiest way to think about this pattern is to imagine a corner room with windows on two sides, but the light can come from a variety of sources, such as windows, skylights, and open doors.
This pattern is from the collection of building patterns in A Pattern Language: Towns, Buildings, Construction, by Christopher Alexander, Sara Ishikawa, and Murray Silverstein, with Max Jacobson, Ingrid Fiksdahl-King, and Shlomo Angel (Oxford University Press).
