Designer and lighting.
The creative skill of a lighting designer is the ability to visualize a design concept revealed by light. The more highly developed is the skill, the greater is the detail of the envisioned concept. A lighting designer who aims to work in a particular field of design, such as architecture, interior design or landscape design, must develop an appreciative understanding of how designers in the chosen field conceptualize their work. From an understanding of the overall design concept, the lighting designer develops the vision of the design setting revealed by light. A hierarchy of things to be seen is determined and selection is made of object characteristics to be revealed. It is this selection that determines the characteristics of the lighting to be provided.
If daylight will be present for some of the time, its role in determining the perceived character of the space is likely to be crucial, and strategies for control of both daylight and electric lighting must be envisioned together. The aim is to devise a lighting distribution that is uniquely suited to the design situation, and which may be specified in terms that are capable of being realized.
