8 light has four specific duties: decorative accent task ambient no single light source can perform all functions of lighting for a given space

9 Light should be “layered”: a number of light sources should be blended together in order to create a comfortable, inviting environment this is the KEY to effective lighting design

10 participation activity: classroom light analysis directions: …Look around the classroom. Identify each of the types of lighting used in the space and list them according to category. …Answer the question: According to your current knowledge of lighting, what are the strengths of the classroom’s lighting plan and what are its weaknesses? …Campus Critique—now visit two other places on campus (one good, one bad) and complete an analysis for each

11 decorative: used to create the “sparkle” for a room examples: chandeliers, sconces, table lamps in the best designs, decorative light sources only create the illusion of providing a room’s illumination translucent vs. opaque shades

12 decorative: used to create the “sparkle” for a room

13 decorative: used to create the “sparkle” for a room

14 decorative: used to create the “sparkle” for a room

15 decorative: used to create the “sparkle” for a room

16 decorative: used to create the “sparkle” for a room

17 decorative: used to create the “sparkle” for a room

18 accent: directed illumination that highlights objects within an environment examples: track, recessed adjustable fixtures used to highlight art, sculpture, tabletops, plants, etc… if you only use accent light, you get the museum effect thrives on subtlety want to see the effect, not how it is created

19 accent: directed illumination that highlights objects within an environment

20 accent: directed illumination that highlights objects within an environment

21 accent: directed illumination that highlights objects within an environment

22 accent: directed illumination that highlights objects within an environment

23 accent: directed illumination that highlights objects within an environment

24 task: illumination for performing work-related activities, such as reading, cutting vegetables or sorting laundry optimally located between your head and the work surface table lamps—reading fluorescent—for working under counter fixture mount best for kitchens

25 task: illumination for performing work-related activities

26 task: illumination for performing work-related activities

27 task: illumination for performing work-related activities

28 task: illumination for performing work-related activities

29 ambient: the soft, general illumination that fills the volume of a room with a glow of light most important of the four functions often left out of design of a room or space best ambient light comes from sources that bounce illumination off of ceiling & walls provides a subtle general illumination without drawing attention to them examples: indirect wall sconces, torcheres, indirect pendants, cove lighting

30 ambient: the soft, general illumination that fills the volume of a room with a glow of light should not be used alone—“cloudy day effect”—everything in the space seems to have the same value, without any depth or dimension

31 ambient: the soft, general illumination that fills the volume of a room with a glow of light

32 ambient: the soft, general illumination that fills the volume of a room with a glow of light

33 ambient: the soft, general illumination that fills the volume of a room with a glow of light

34 ambient: the soft, general illumination that fills the volume of a room with a glow of light

35 ambient: the soft, general illumination that fills the volume of a room with a glow of light

36 participation activity: interior light analysis directions: …Using the same paper as the Classroom Light Analysis and 5 pictures from magazines provided, identify each of the types of lighting used in the spaces and list them according to category. …Answer the question: According to your current knowledge of lighting, what are the strengths of the image’s lighting plan and what are its weaknesses? …Attach the images that you used to your responses and hand them in for the day’s participation points.
