CHAPTER 6 General discussion and conclusions
5. Open remarks of the subjects about the lighting conditions (Visual comfort) [in Dutch]
CL 17000 K / 430lx+/-40 WL 2700 K/ 430lx+/-40
subjects
1 Eentonige omgeving, sfeerloos, miste buitenlucht, te laag lichtniveau
Visual comfort scale was not filled in
2 Fel licht, veel wit, waadoor het visueel comfort slecht is, te veel reflectie, waardoor er een soort "duizelig"/bewegend licht is
Beetje verblinding door witte oppervlakken, dat kijkt niet rustig
3 Het licht is erg blauw en verbleekt warme kleuren en huid, desondanks werkt dit prettig
Een actieve houding gaat goed, bij passiviteit (rust) wordt het licht te fel
4 Geen opmerkingen Jammer dat ik in de
pauzes niet naar buiten kan kijken
5 Langdurig lezen: gevoel van draaierigheid (alleen bij leesteksten) ( lezen op papier)
Sfeervol, rustig, licht
6 Geen opmerkingen Geen opmerkingen
7 Blauwig licht, dit merk je alleen als je van binnen naar buiten gaat
Het is een erg witte ruimte waardoor het soms een beetje ging schimmeren voor mijn ogen
8 Het was prettig om in deze lichte (reflecterende) omgeving te werken
Geen opmerkingen
9 Beetje vreemde kleur licht, niet echt natuurlijk
Bij computer minder licht dan elders in ruimte, goed licht 10 Door het overal aangebrachte
wit, nogal felle weerkaatsing
Computerscherm leek erg blauw met deze verlichting
11 Te fel/wit licht voor rust Geen opmerkingen 12 De felheid van het licht neemt
veel comfort weg
Visual Comfort remarks - translation in English
CL 17000 K / 430lx+/-40 WL 2700 K / 430lx+/-40 subject
1 Dull, cheerless environment, I missed open air, too low lighting level
Missing
2 Bright light, a lot of white, and as a result a visual comfort is bad, too many reflections, it is why there is a feeling of “dizziness”/ a moving light
A little bit of glare because of white spaces, it looks restless
3 Lighting is very blue and it bleach warm colours and skin, in spite of this it works nice
During an activity it goes good, for the rest periods (passive) light is too bright
4 No remarks Pity, that during the breaks
it was not possible to look outside
5 Long reading: feeling of dizziness (during reading on paper)
Full of atmosphere, peaceful light
6 No remarks No remarks
7 Bluish light, you only notice that when you are entering the room from outside
It is a very white room, therefore from time to time I had a little bit of shadow-spots before my eyes 8 It was nice to work in this light
(reflecting) environment
No remarks
9 A bit strange colour of light, not really natural
At the computer less light than somewhere else in the room, good light 10 Because of white environment,
there is a quite strong bright reflection
Computer screen looks very blue in this light
11 Too bright/white light to rest No remarks 12 Brightness of the light reduces
a lot of visual comfort
