About the Book

The Challenge of Effective Daylighting.- The Role of Metrics in Performance-based Design.- Innovative Daylighting Systems.- A Performance-based Design and Delivery Process.- Case Studies.- Validating Performance from the Perspective of End Users.


About the Author: Kyle Konis, Ph.D, AIA is an Assistant Professor of Architecture at the University of Southern California (https: //arch.usc.edu/faculty/kkonis). His courses focus on techniques and measurable methods for integrating sustainable design principles into architectural practice and urban design. Kyle's research interests are centered on improving the feedback loop between design and the performance outcomes of buildings in use, with an emphasis on the experience of building occupants.
In 2011, Kyle received a Ph.D in Architecture with an emphasis in Building Science from U.C. Berkeley. His Ph.D dissertation extends into the realms of engineering, physical computing, product design and social science, with the goal of leveraging rich and granular occupant feedback data as a critical instrument for evaluating and improving the design and performance of low-energy commercial buildings. While completing his Ph.D, Kyle worked for four years as a graduate research assistant with the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory's Windows and Daylighting Group on high performance facade research funded by the U.S. Department of Energy and the California Energy Commission. His research experience also includes examining the feasibility of net-zero energy homes and demand response (DR) enabling technology. While at Berkeley, Kyle received the "Bears Breaking Boundaries" Award from the U.C. Berkeley Chancellor for Science and Technology.
Kyle is a registered architect in the state of Washington and has worked professionally for Bohlin Cywinski Jackson in Seattle and for Sir Michael Hopkins and Long and Kentish Architects in London. Kyle holds a Masters of Architecture degree from Yale University where he received the Multon Andrus Award for Excellence in Art and Architecture in 2004. Prior to coming to USC, Kyle held an appointment at Portland State University.
Kyle is a member of the IESNA Daylighting and Daylighting Metrics Committees. His research has been published in a number of prominent journals including Energy and Buildings, Building and Environment, Solar Energy, Intelligent Buildings International, and LEUKOS.
