This book examines the history of ventilation and lighting in the Houses of Parliament in London, a project overseen by a select committee and a diverse team of experts. The author presents evidence from witnesses, including architects, engineers, and doctors, to show that the initial ventilation and lighting design for the new Palace of Westminster was met with much debate and dissatisfaction. Though the Houses of Parliament is the focus, this book also provides a snapshot of the development of ventilation and lighting as a science during the Victorian era. The author highlights the growing scientific understanding of the importance of proper ventilation for human health and productivity. The book concludes by emphasizing the significance of the insights gained from this project for the advancement of ventilation and lighting principles in building design and construction.
