Daylighting is one of the most significant parameters. Natural light can penetrate in buildings through implementing daylighting. It also can lead to improvement of living conditions and comfort, including acoustic comfort, thermal comfort, and as well as luminous comfort. Therefore, one of the most important concern that should be considered in luminous comfort studies, is satisfaction with daylight.

The lack of daylighting methods can be clearly observed in the University of Malaya library, where the users and staff of the library are not satisfied enough with the luminous condition. This study aimed to investigate and clearly define the factors of daylight satisfaction which have an impact on luminous comfort through some concepts that has been used in previous studies relating to this area.
