Business Hotel and Shopping Mall are buildings that used as a place to stay, especially for those who in a business trip and grocery facility for guests in the hotel and people around. The exists of hotel and mall in an area usually can attract people to visit that area and used as a place to rest and to gather, this is the main reason on choosing Hotel and Mall to be one of the facilities in supporting area of Science and Technopark in campus USU Kwala Bekala. Based on the USU Kwala Bekala masterplan, the site with 1,6 Ha area is located in the entrance zone, which is the gateway area of USU Kwala Bekala, so that the concept of the mass was building as a gate. This building is expected to be one of the areas that can integrate users with all of the facilities in Science & Techno Park of Campus USU Kwala Bekala. From the analysis that has done, the final design was the buildings are separated into two mass and connected with a sky bridge with the implementation of green architecture. The application of this concept seen in the use of windows, skylight, and the inner court as natural lighting and ventilation, roof garden to recycle rainwater, and secondary skin as a sunlight buffer. These applications are expected to help in reducing the use of water and electricity.

Underground spaces in town centres present a big attraction for investors. However, they put special requirements to the internal environment. Those requirements can be fulfilled by means of daylighting. Examples of lighting of underground spaces are discussed. It is shown that the common systems of natural lighting are not always possible to use and cause big heat losses. Hollow light guide pipes allow avoid the shortcomings of common daylight systems. Method of calculation of daylight factors from hollow light guide pipes is shown. The results of calculation of daylight factors under the light guide pipes of different diameters in the different depths are presented.

Three elements mainly wind, water and sun seemed to determine in ancient ages the basic phenomena of life on Earth. Architectural history documented the importance of sun influence on urban and building construction already in layouts of Mesopotamian and Greek houses. Not only sun radiation but especially daylight played a significant role in the creation of indoor environment. Later, in the 20th century, a search of interaction between human life in buildings and natural conditions were studied considering well­being and energy conscious design recently using computer tools in complex research and more detail interdisciplinary solutions. At the same time the restricted daytime availability of natural light was supplemented by more efficient and continually cheaper artificial lighting of interiors. There are two main approaches to standardize the design and evaluation of indoor visual environment. The first is based on the determination of the minimum requirements respecting human health and visibility needs in all activities while the second emphasizes the behaviour and comfort of occupants in buildings considering year­around natural changes of physical quantities like light, temperature, noise and energy consumption. The new current standardization basis for daylight evaluation and window design criteria stimulate the study of methodology principles that historically were based on the overcast type of sky luminance pattern avoiding yearly availability of sky illuminance levels. New trends to base the daylight standardization on yearly or long­term availability of daylight are using the averages or median sky illuminance levels to characterise local climatological conditions. This paper offers the review and discussion about the principles of the natural light standardization with a short introduction to the history and current state, with a trial to focus on the possible development of lighting engineering and its standards in future.
