Henry Plummer, The Daylight Award 2020 Laureate for Lifetime Achievement
Henry Plummer is an American architect, photographer, academic, researcher and author of numerous books revealing the transformative power of daylight in architecture.
Henry Plummer has devoted his career to researching daylight in architecture. Through extensive critiques and photographic investigations, he provides a thoughtful and evocative assessment of countless buildings through history. His unique approach to revealing the transformative, metaphysical qualities of daylight is to combine his power of narrative analysis, with his outstanding skill as an architectural photographer. In this way, his extensive body of work has inspired generations of architects to reveal and celebrate the experiential aspects of daylight in architecture.
Plummer emphasizes the role of his two media: “Words examine ideas and thoughts, observations and analysis concerning light, while images present the phenomena themselves. It is with this in mind that the photographs are intended not as textual illustrations, but rather to form their own mode of enquiry, one that seeks to carefully examine the metaphysical aspects of architecture whose significance lies, to a large extent, beyond the domain of words”.

i love this natural lighting
Just look at the gothic catholic architecture!!!
There has been much written on how different hues affect mood. I'm wondering what ways light can affect mood. It seems it is an area where more study could be done.
