Hi All,

Has anyone come across a project that has multiple treatments on a wall (like an acoustic band), or multiple flooring finishes that are similar in shade / reflectance values?

We are trying to understand how much this can be simplified for the sake of the daylight simulations. Does every difference in material need to be captured? Any feedback would be appreciated!

Hi All, facing the same issue - a complex color scheme across a CI project. Capturing this in detail would take ages.. would the worst case (i.e. the darkest color of the scheme applied for a relevant surface) suffice to document the credit? (Of course assuming that we could reach the minimum sDA area requirements this way) I guess that for CI this may by a common issue, so some clarity on this will be helpfull. Thanks for your thoughts/experience.
