Greg Ward is the creator of the revolutionary software simulation program, Radiance, which has enabled three decades of researchers to imagine the possibilities of daylight.
Radiance is widely applied in architecture, product design, horticulture, motion picture, health effects and medical research.
Ward has investigated the interaction of light and matter across a wide range of physical scales, from unique building materials with specialized optical properties, to the spatial definition of complex building interiors and facades, and to our urban and natural environments.
Ward’s passion for iterating and improving the software, has led to a strong community of Radiance users who further impact the fields of daylight research and daylight in architecture.
“ My emphasis has always been on working, practical systems, as opposed to purely academic pursuits.”
