Abstract

Considers how the human body and senses react to different indoor environmental conditions, together with basic information on the parameters of the indoor environment and problems that can occur. Then moves on to the background to the development of the study and control of the indoor environment (including thermal, lighting, indoor air and sound-related aspects) and discusses the drivers for change in the field. The final section presents a new approach towards health and comfort in the indoor environment, where meeting the wishes and demands of the occupants with a holistic strategy becomes the over-riding priority.
