This paper reflects on studies done in the area of daylight design methods with regard to principles that can be applied in architecture and urban planning strategies. The paper addresses barriers to the application of new daylight design methods in urban planning, and in particular discusses current Polish building regulations in the context of daylight design. The results of the pilot study carried out among 82 participants show a growing demand for better daylight education and an urgent need for revision of the existing outdated lighting recommendations in Poland. In conclusion, the pilot study illustrates the importance of daylight as a natural resource considered essential in sustainable approaches to urban planning, and highlights the belief that daylight and electric light projects should be holistically integrated in the implementation of the town lighting plan.
