Abstract For modern people who spend most of their time indoors, the indoor environment is very important. The efficiency of work depends on the amenity level of the occupants who use the office space. Therefore, the experiment was conducted to derive the proper illuminance according to the amenity level of the occupants. The experiment was conducted in an office in Chilgok County for 6 days. The illuminance of the indoor was changed every day, the feeling brightness of the occupants was measured every 10 minutes, the eye fatigue was measured every 30 minutes, and the overall illuminance and the work surface illuminance were measured every hour. Experimental results show that the feeling brightness is different depending on the position of the occupants. Also, it was found that the brightness survey preferred by the occupants required more proper illuminance than the brightness. In addition, it is considered that there is a correlation with indoor temperature and humidity as the eye fatigue of occupants. Brightness preference by time of day was analysis from feeling brightness of occupants and preference brightness of occupants, and then it was analyzed like eye fatigue to derive proper illuminance per hour. Based on these results, it can be utilized for improvement of eye amenity existing office space.
