An interior lighting system for a vehicle, the vehicle comprising a non-transparent roof, the non-transparent roof comprising an outside surface which is exposed to an environment surrounding the vehicle and an inside surface which is exposed to an internal volume of the vehicle, the interior lighting system comprising:

• a sensor device configured to infer at least one characteristic of light impinging on a section of the outside surface of the non-transparent roof of the vehicle;
• an illumination device configured to emit light from a section of the inside surface of the non-transparent roof of the vehicle into the internal volume of the vehicle;
• a control device connected to the sensor device and the illumination device, the control device being configured to control the illumination device such that at least one characteristic of light emitted from the section of the inside surface of the non-transparent roof mimics the at least one characteristic of light impinging on the section of the outside surface of the non-transparent roof inferred by the sensor device;
• wherein the section of the outside surface of the non-transparent roof of the vehicle is associated with the section of the inside surface of the non-transparent roof of the vehicle.
