Abstract
The representation of natural light is placed in the context of architectural drawing, showing that despite the leading role of daylight in architecture, the representation of its phenomenology was limited to the geometric layout of the shadows in space; however, with the addition of IT technology and virtual simulation, this representation takes on a new communicative dimension through the use of realistic images that can represent phenomenology light as it is perceived and assist the architect as an instrument for the correct representation of natural lighting and support for the development of an energy sustainable architecture.
