Digital Dimensions provides BRE-compliant Daylight & Sunlight Analysis services for architects, developers, planning consultants, engineers and local authorities throughout Ireland.
Our specialist environmental modelling team produces comprehensive daylight, sunlight and overshadowing assessments to support planning applications, design development and environmental reporting. Using advanced simulation software and industry-recognised methodologies, we evaluate the impact of proposed developments on surrounding buildings, public spaces and residential amenity areas.
Our Services Include:
• Shadow Diagrams & Sun Path Studies:
• Vertical Sky Component & Average Daylight Factor Assessments.
• Sunlight Availability & Probable Sunlight Hours (PSH)
• Passive Design & Low Energy Strategy Consultancy
• Energy Simulation & Environmental Modelling
Our reports are prepared in accordance with BRE guidelines commonly referenced by Irish planning authorities and An Bord Pleanála. We work closely with design teams to identify potential daylight and sunlight issues early in the design process, helping optimise building performance while supporting successful planning outcomes.
A unique advantage of Digital Dimensions is our ability to combine technical environmental analysis with high-quality architectural visualisation. Shadow studies, sun path animations and daylight simulations can be presented as compelling visual evidence for planning authorities, stakeholders and public consultation.
Based in Dublin, Digital Dimensions supports projects of all scales, from residential extensions and apartment developments to large-scale commercial and mixed-use schemes across Ireland.
