The Playhouse will be illuminated exclusively by candles, with artificial electronic daylight filtering through internal "windows".
£4.95 adult, £2.50 child, nationaltrust.org.uk, 028 7084 8728 This is a proper old world classic (the interior was last revamped in 1870) – Bakelite switches and coat hooks beneath the counter, a keyhole clock that gongs above the bar, shelves of bottled miscellany, distillers' mirrors, daylight filtering in through red Bristol glass.
As daylight filtered into the high-ceilinged rooms — awash in the romantic luster of the Colonial era — scores of literati surged from the staircase, hailing each other, picking up drinks, standing arm in arm, or spilling into cushioned wicker love seats on the terrace.
Overall, the study shows that there is a preference for daylight filtered through bronze window glazing and that the glazing colour type may have a significant effect on arousal level of office workers.
Specimens were trans-illuminated using a 20 V/150 W halogen lamp light source (Volpi, Auburn, NY) with a daylight filter mounted at the rear of the base.

The stark nudity of the granite façade, with narrow slits allowing limited daylight to filter through, enhances the impression of a hermitage cut off from the world.
The results will suggest the daylight levels filter through the carvings that can correlate with suitable task recommended by the guidelines.
Thus the interior is full of what architects call "reveals": moments where surfaces stop short of corners, yielding unexpected views, and filtering daylight from above.
