Using windows with reflectors and roof elements with a triangular pyramidal structure, the natural sun rays of the entire spectral range from infra-red to ultra-violet are spread at least in a major part of the room in a controlled diffuse manner. Local excessive illumination and overheating of the room in the vicinity of the window are thereby prevented. In case of insufficient natural lighting, fluorescent lights permit a large-area, uniform overall room illumination. As regards rooms with flat roofs, additional light may be introduced in diffusely controlled manner into room by truncated pyramidal roof domes. The roof elements may comprise baffles by means of which acousting dampening openings can be adjusted individually for the purpose of additionally controlling the sound waves generated in the room. The invention allows creating conditions of optimal comfort in a room while simultaneously saving on auxiliary energy by using the natural energy of radiation in a controlled manner.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION I claim: 1.
An energy-spreading installation for controlling, in the entire spectral range, radiant energy amounts irradiating a room having a plurality of confining walls comprising a bottom floor, a side wall zone and a ceiling zone, which room the energy amounts are to fill, said radiant energies stemming from at least one radiation source located outside or inside said room, comprising surface means adapted for a predetermined spreading, in said room, of radiant energy in order to attain a state ranging from diffusion to total reflection, in the entire spectral range, said means being mountable on a confining wall of the room; wherein said surface means comprise those of a double-glazed window, said window comprising a plurality of reflection elements arranged one above the other and located between the two glass panes of the window; and wherein said reflection elements comprise shell-shaped reflectors and support elements for said reflection, said support elements being specular on one side; and said support elements being of transparent plastics material and their side holding the reflectors comprising a specular surface with diffusing structures.
2.
An energy-spreading installation for controlling, in the entire spectral range, radiant energy amounts irradiating a room having a plurality of confining walls comprising a bottom floor, a side wall zone and a ceiling zone, which room the energy amounts are to fill, said radiant energies stemming from at least one radiation source located outside or inside said room, comprising surface means adapted for a predetermined spreading, in said room, of radiant energy in order to attain a state ranging from diffusion to total reflection, in the entire spectral range, said means being mountable on a confining wall of the room; wherein said surface means comprise those of a double-glazed window, said window comprising a plurality of reflection elements arranged one above the other and located between the two glass planes of the window; and wherein said reflection elements comprise shell-shaped reflectors and support elements for said reflectors, said support elements being specular on one side; and wherein said support elements are provided with an internal duct and are designed as combined reflecting and absorbing elements and are adapted for being cooled by a coolant flowing through said duct
