Americans spend up to 90% of their time indoors, according to a recent report, a metric that only climbs this time of year when people prefer indoor activities as outdoor temperatures chill.

Indoor-centric lifestyles unfortunately take a cumulative toll on our psychological and physical well-being: studies show spending too much time indoors leads to increased anxiety and depression, sleep disruption and reduced cognitive function.

Daylighting design strategies that distribute natural daylight indoors can significantly mitigate these issues. This article from Kingspan Light + Air details how research finds that exposure to sunlight promotes a myriad of benefits for occupants’ mental health and overall wellness.
