Arquitectura; iluminación; procesos neuronalesAbstract
La luz en la arquitectura se ha concebido desde diferentes perspectivas como estética, funcional, métodos de iluminación, normativo; sin embargo, en la arquitectura poco se han considerado el efecto de la luz a nivel neuronal. En este contexto, el objetivo es realizar una revisión de las investigaciones de neurociencias sobre la luz y su relación con los espacios, en particular con sus efectos en el sistema nervioso, procesos cognitivos y estados de ánimo. En la revisión se encontró que poco se han realizado en la búsqueda del confort en iluminación, debido al número de factores que la componen, las contradicciones en torno a sus investigaciones y la falta de control sobre éstas; A pesar de esto ha sido muy difundida la curva de confort de Kruithof. Los resultados muestran que hay aspectos cualitativos y cuantitativos, de la intensidad luminosa y la temperatura color que aporta la luz al espacio; y no solo el factor estético. Estos factores interactúan con la forma arquitectónica y a su vez pueden modular la actividad cerebral produciendo o facilitando procesos de atención, memoria, juicios de belleza y no siempre están dentro de los rangos de la muy usada curva de confort de Kruithof.
