The VELUX MyDaylight app simulates realistic daylight in a customizable setting using virtual reality and repurposed gaming technology.

The Jury says
An augmented reality (AR) app might not be groundbreaking new tech, but for a lot of people that are not architects or designers, this is a great way of discovering what daylight means for our well-being in houses. The daylight looks very realistic, and it stands above many other AR products out there.

The solution has the potential to have other architectural services added to it. It could, for example, be expanded from daylight to air quality and tips for how to improve your home. Similarly, it could be connected to buying the windows and getting them delivered. It is a design solution that is providing a great architectural service.
