Introduction

Effective lighting can have a dramatic effect on our perception of space and our interaction within it.

Often an afterthought, lighting should be considered from the beginning when a space is being planned.

There are three basic types of lighting: task lighting; accent lighting; and ambient or general lighting. A well lit room or space will have a pleasing and effective combination of each type.

Good lighting allows for flexibility, a variety of light levels, and suitability to the purpose.
