Addressing Layers Choreography: A pattern of recessed luminaires creates brightness onto the floor that surrounds an occupant in brightness upon entry. Light painted onto the back wall serves as the visual goal and draws visitors through the space or into the space if the entry has glass doors or walls. A row of decorative pendants can also create a visual curtain that stops progress at the point of interaction with the receptionist. Wall wash luminaires and pendants also draw attention to the seating areas on the periphery.
Mood and Ambience: Multiple light textures liven-up the space and create a
welcoming experience. Light painted onto the walls increases the perception of brightness. Pendants add a human scale and a touch of sparkle and a comfortable diffuse quality of light at the entry point.
Accenting: Recessed wall wash luminaires place light onto the art and graphics
on the vertical surfaces. Decorative pendants catch the eye and push light down onto furniture and horizontal surfaces as points of visual interest.
Revealing Architecture: Light onto the back wall defines the length of the space
while lighted vertical surfaces expand the perimeter. Decorative pendants drop specific areas down to a human scale.
Task Lighting: Accented signage on the back wall lends corporate identity.
Pendants draw light onto the receptions desk and the seating area tables.
Chapter 29 Common Lighting Details
To implement lighting design that transcends the status-quo yet is still constructible, a fair amount of time and effort must be put into refining the construction details of each lighting application. Many lighting effects are the result of precision and subtlety. Without the proper considerations, unusual lighting applications can become sources of glare or simply wasted electricity. To understand what is possible with light, it is important that a designer have a fair understanding of typical construction methods. Every project has unique conditions which will accommodate certain types of lighting integration better than others. Knowledge of issues such as plenum space, framing construction type and wall thickness will affect lighting options. Remember that every project is unique, and the details presented here are for reference only. Be sure to coordinate with the design team to develop lighting applications that will work for the specific project
A wall or ceiling-integrated cove is a great way to volumize a space by casting light up onto the ceiling plane above. This kind of clean shape of light can harmonize well with the geometry of the space and lend a soft, enveloping light. Coves can be implemented with a variety of linear sources, including linear fluorescent, linear incandescent and linear LED sources.
