This research paper investigates the impact of internal shading, specifically curtains and window configurations, on indoor daylight levels and their effects on human health and well-being. The study uses a combination of illuminance and spectral measurements in a classroom setting to analyze how different window and curtain arrangements affect melanopic equivalent daylight illuminance (m-EDI). Findings highlight the significant influence of these factors on m-EDI, emphasizing the importance of building design in optimizing daylight access for occupant health, particularly for older individuals. The results also show a correlation between daylight quality and spectrum and potential glare issues associated with excessive luminance. The study concludes with recommendations for future research, including incorporating participant feedback and more comprehensive weather conditions.
