COURSE SYNOPSIS

Lighting System is an extremely important expressive tool for engineers, architects, and interior designers. The design of the lighting system requires specific technical skills and knowledge of modern lighting technologies, light sources and controls, human eyes & vision, environmental influence and factors, and energy efficiency.

While standards, demands, and design application for lighting system change, the most significant change is the lamp technology. It is notable that the development of solid state lamp technology is revolutionising the lighting industry.

This Lighting Design Course aims at providing theoretical and practical background on all the necessary elements for developing a good quality and efficient lighting design in buildings. Manual calculations and design applications are introduced for case studies with building type, method of construction, orientation, and occupation, usage and location. The objective of this course is to discuss what good lighting design covers (other than just average illuminance) and also how to interpret results presented in the printouts.
