HDB furniture placement: Assessing natural light impact (metrics)

Strategically placing furniture can maximize or minimize natural light. Avoid blocking windows with large items. Mirrors can amplify light, while dark colors absorb it.

Measure lux levels before and after furniture placement using a light meter. Observe changes in room brightness throughout the day and note any shadows cast by furniture.

Use light-colored, low-profile furniture. Position tall items away from windows. Consider sheer curtains to diffuse light evenly.
