2 LITTERATURE REVIEW ther expresses how the coloured spectrums we meet in a space affects our movements and spatial thinking. (Ponty, 2013, pp. 140, 217) Tonino Griffero, 2014 talks in ”Atmosphere: Aesthetics of Emotional Spac- es” about the sensory perception of atmosphere as “means grasping a feel- ing in the surrounding space” in his investigation of atmosphere. He states that we are never not in an atmosphere, and human atmospheric perception he refers is a symptom of human as ”holistic and emotional being-in-the- world”. (Griffero, 2014) In ” Space, Place and Atmosphere. Emotion in Peripheral perception and architectural experience” Juhani Pallasmaa approaches the topic in an archi- tectural context by enhancing the experience of the body in the space. Ex- plaining that when human beings dream or read a novel, we do not imagine spaces and atmospheres in 2D and without spatial awareness. (Pallasmaa, 2014, p. 239) Another architectural take on atmosphere from Peter Zumthors “Atmos- pheres”, where he talks about the mind and body in connection to 9 items. The body of architecture (I), Material compatibility (II), The sound of space (III), The temperature of space (IV), Surrounding objects (V), Between Com- posure and Seduction (VI), Tension between Interior and Exterior (VII), Lev- els of Intimacy (IIX) and finally, The light on Things (IX). (Zumthor, 2006) ”We perceive atmosphere through our emotional sensibility – a form of perception that works incredibly quickly, and which we humans evi- dently need to help us survive. The big question is “What is the magic of the Real”? The Body of Architecture, Material Compatibility, The Sound of a Space, The Temperature of a Space, Surrounding objects, Between Composure and Seduction, Tension between Interior and Exterior, Lev- els of Intimacy, The Light on Things.” Peter Zumthor (Zumthor, 2006) Emotional sensibility, something very unique and human can be extremely hard to define. As we talk about atmosphere and emotional sensibility, the effects of lighting must be accentuated as a tool for both. It is hard to define sensibility and atmosphere, but even if there is no scientific proof, light has an ability to carry memories and emotions, just as smell and touch. Allowing for the emotional qualities of the space to be interpreted by the visitor, as characteristics such as homely and cosy can be determined by heritage and culture. It is important to take atmosphere into consideration, as the effect and stimuli from the surroundings, materials, connection to staff and natural light- ing can have a big impact on hospitalisation time. (Ulrich et al., 2004; Red- ding et al., 2017) This is why the combination of space and lighting design is even more important, when people are hospitalised in the same health care buildings 24-hours a day for an unknown period of time.
