Abstract

Today, re-functioning cultural heritage by preserving the buildings within the scope of historical heritage is one of the most important issues in the area of cultural heritage management. The re-functioning should be adapted to the building so that it reflects and conserves the original functions. Natural lighting is also an important parameter in such re-functioned buildings.
