“…However, because indoor greenery usage is expected to increase, planning a light environment for humans and ornamental plants to coexist will be crucial in the future. An insufficient amount of light mainly inhibits plant growth within buildings 14–16 . Additionally, experiments have confirmed that the growth of some plant species may be stunted by stress caused by excessive sunlight 16 .…”

In recent years, interest in biophilic design and indoor greenery has increased. However, the growth of indoor plants may become stunted under unfavorable light conditions. Therefore, we must evaluate the light environments required for indoor plants to thrive. We propose a new method to assess indoor light environments for indoor plants by using spectral irradiance simulation. We verify the accuracy of the spectral irradiance simulation via actual measurements in a university classroom. Additionally, we confirm the calculation accuracy of the photosynthetic photon flux density, which is strongly correlated with photosynthesis in plants. We evaluate indoor light environments for indoor plants in 3D models by applying a few concepts from plant physiology.
