    This book discusses the architecture of natural light and how it can be orchestrated, choreographed, refracted, sifted, channeled, suffused, and materialized through structures and materials. It contains 7 chapters that examine how light mutates through time with evanescence, progresses for the moving eye with procession, is refracted through veils of glass, sifted through porous screens, channeled through hollow masses, suffused with a unified mood through atmospheric silence, and materialized in physical matter through luminescence.
