Design a brighter world

VELUX Daylight Visualizer

Enlightening building design plans with accurate daylight level calculations

The VELUX Daylight Visualizer accurately calculates daylight levels to make complex analysis accessible at the start of a building project. Our digital 3D simulation tool can bring design visions to life in virtual form for every type of commercial building, working in compliance with EN 17037 regulations, while also empowering your design decisions to transform any building space.

Available by download, this digital tool is compatible with CAD/BIM software. The Daylight Visualizer improves the commercial viability of a building project through the reduction of planning error, enlightening design plans when you have a better understanding of daylight levels.

Become a leader in daylighting design with VELUX Daylight Visualizer and create brighter, healthier buildings for everyone.

VELUX Daylight Visualizer is a professional lighting simulation tool for the analysis of daylight conditions in buildings.

It is intended for use in the early design phase of a building to inform architects and engineers about the impact of various design choices on daylight performance. With Daylight Visualizer you can take more informed decisions about daylight performance in your architectural design:

it calculates the amount of daylight that will be available inside a building space
it can be used to optimise the daylight situation, for instance in a refurbishment project
it visualises the appearance of daylight with photo-realistic images, quantifies the amount and distribution of daylight with false color images
it visualises how daylight situation is perceived under different CIE (The International Commission on Illumination — Commission Internationale de l´Eclairage) sky conditions.

Example: Hessenwaldschule school project

With Daylight Visualizer you can perform luminance and illuminance simulations under different CIE sky conditions, and apply false color mapping to visualize the quantity and distribution of daylight in the space.
