Full textAbstract:
Lighting plays a vital role in the way people experience and understand architecture. Whether buildings and structures are lit naturally or artificially, lighting is the medium that allows us to see and appreciate the beauty in the buildings around us. Lighting can bring an emotional value to architecture –it helps create an experience for those who occupy the space. Without lighting, where would architecture be? Would it still have the same impact? Whether it’s daylighting or artificial lighting, light draws attention to textures, colors, and forms of a space, helping architecture achieve its true purpose. Vision is the single most important sense through which we enjoy architecture, and lighting enhances the way we perceive architecture even more.To create a successful balance between lighting and architecture, it’s important to remember three key aspects of architectural lighting: aesthetic, function and efficiency. Aesthetic is where designers and architects focus on the emotional impact the balance of lighting and architecture will have on occupants. It’s where designers determine how they want people to feel when they walk around a space. This aspect is especially important for retail locations; exterior lighting should draw the consumer in, and the interior lighting should awe them as they walk through the doors in addition to showing off product. The second aspect, function, cannot be overlooked. We want the lighting to look a certain way, but we have to also make sure it serves its most important purpose -to help us see. Areas should be illuminated so occupants feel safe when navigating a room or entire building. They should be able to see the floor and walls around them, which should create a feeling of reassurance. The final aspect is very important in today’s age of green building and sustainability movements. It’s one thing to create a breathtaking lighting layout, but it’s another to create a breathtaking layout that is also incredibly energy efficient. This can be done by assuring the majority of the light is reaching its target and there is less wasted light. Reducing the amount of wasted light will make the building more efficient. An easy way this can be done is to install LEDs instead of fluorescent lighting. Because of the technology, there is less wasted light with LEDs than fluorescent due to the directional nature of LEDs.Before we get into how light and architecture impact one another, it’s important to know the main categories of buildings and what each try to accomplish with lighting. The first group (public buildings) is comprised of sports arenas, libraries, hospitals, etc. These types of buildings are more concerned with providing the right amount of light for tasks and other types of events. Sporting events like football and baseball require the right amount of light sothe players on the field can see and so the spectators can see the field. It’s also important for when spectators go to and from their seats and navigate the rest of the arena/stadium. It’s the same concept with libraries and hospitals. In libraries, occupants need to have the proper light levels to read, write and find books on shelves, while hospitals need high light levels for doctors and nurses to successfully do their jobs.The second group (official buildings) is comprised of mainly warehouses and office buildings. Their number one concern with lighting is the efficiency. With the large energy consumption of those properties, they can’t afford to spend a fortune on lighting and the electricity it consumes. And with green building trends on the rise, it’s important to have energy-efficient and sustainable lighting.The third and final group (specialized buildings) is comprised of museums, theaters, casinos, etc. These buildings rely heavily on atmosphere and the experiences they can provide. They are concerned with enhancing the appearance of architectural spaces and elements. When people go to a theater to see a play or musical, they are expecting an experience before the show even begins. They want to see a beautiful chandelier welcoming them in the lobby, lavish wall sconces lighting the hallway to their seats, and the area around the stage to be lit to accentuate statues, pillars and other architectural features.To enhance architectural elements and evoke emotions, it’s important to understand spatial borders and how to properly light them. To enhance vertical borders for example, light should be directed towards wall surfaces. If there is a wall that is a different texture, or simply one that the occupants should notice more than others, wall washingis a great tool.It will draw attention to the wall and make it appear as its own architectural element instead of a piece of an entire room. This can be used in retail locations to draw more attention to wall displays.Horizontal borders can be emphasized by illuminating the floor and ceiling. By lighting the floor, objects and pedestrian surfaces are lit. This is particularly important in dark spaces such as movie theaters and night clubs. The ambient and accent light levels are so low that not enough light reaches the floor, thus requiring the floor to be illuminated.Executed properly, this can act as task and accent lighting. If light needs to be diffused in the room, lighting the ceiling can be a successful strategy. It helps create a uniformity of light throughout the room and provides proper light levels without the use of direct light on objects.After vertical and horizontal borders have been lit, it’s important to not forget about lighting architectural elements. Lighting pillars, archways, textures, etc. can draw attention away from a room as a whole, and force the eye to focus on the illuminated architectural elements.In a room full of colors and architectural elements, it’s sometimes difficult to make certain areas stand out. Light can help with this problem by making those elements more obvious. This tactic can be used for interior and exterior lighting applications.The study identifies methodological bases of forming an integrated light facilities complex modern residential architecture. Light reveals the form of the architectural object, creates an image. Architecture becomes a source of artificial illumination using light technology. One of main priorities of the research is scientific direction in the creation of bioclimatic and ecological architecture. The problems of the effective use of the aesthetic potential of natural and artificial light have been considered. The analysis of scientific works has focused on the following issue -in the process of developing of the facade systems of housing building the necessary value of role of functional formation of form by light hasn’t been provided. Today in the architectural planning, it is necessary: the introduce in Ukraine European norms, to conform the national normative base the norms of the European standards.

Full textAbstract:
The character of architectural space is dependent on the range of aspects that define it. Lighting presents a very significant component of architectural space. Apart from being functionally necessary for carrying out the planned activities, lighting also has a very important role in determining the ambient value of the segments or the entirety of the space. That role becomes even more important and dramatically evident in those architectural spaces that are meant to provide an intense experience for users, as in the case of sacral architecture. For centuries lighting has been a topic present in sacral architecture, and its significance becomes especially noticeable in newer interpretations of rigidly subdued contemplative spaces. The refined aesthetics of the architectural forms of the second half of the XX century often gives way to lighting as the central element of the architectural composition, which determines the mystical and suggestive ambiances that direct users to contemplation. The study is, in the first part, conducted through a theoretical analysis of the phenomena of natural and artificial lighting in architecture. Then, in the second part, an analysis of prominent examples of sacral architecture from the given period is applied in order to explore models of treating lighting as a key element in building expressive architectural spaces that invite spiritual reflections and contemplation. The goal of this research is to examine the potentials of lighting beyond its utilitarian function, and research the possibilities and potential of utilizing lighting as a carrier of the meditative and transcendental character of sacral architecture. The result of the research is a confirmation of the importance of lighting in sacral architecture, and an insight into the ways of thinking about light in the context of shaping suggestive and meditative architectural spaces that intensify the hyperphysical experience.

Lighting is one of the key elements in any space and building infrastructure. Good design for an area in the building requires sufficient light that contributes to the efficiency of the activities. The correct method allows natural light to transmit, reduce heat and glare in providing a conducive learning environment. Light plays a significant influence to the quality of space and contributes focus of the students in an architecture studio. Previous research has shown that the effect of light also controlled emotions, behavior, and mood of the students. The operations of artificial lighting that have been used most of the time in an architecture studio during day and night may create lavishness and inadequacy at the same time. Therefore, this paper focuses on the identifying the quality of light for the architecture studio in UiTM (Perak), to instill a creative learning environment. Several methodologies adopted in this study such as illuminance level measurement using lux meter (LM-8100), and a questionnaire survey in gauging the lighting comfort level from students’ perspective. The study revealed that the illuminance level in the architecture studio is insufficient and not in the acceptable range stated in the Malaysian: Standards 1525:2007 and not evenly distributed. The study also concluded that the current studio environment is not condusive and appears monotonous.

Full textAbstract:
The paper identified the main aspects of the natural lighting of interior spaces of residential and public buildings, affecting the light forms of education, the quality of light, visual comfort, visual discomfort, uneven illumination, and so on. The quality of architecture as a visual art is mainly evaluated because of visual impressionsthat are possible only in the presence of light. The modern period of development of society is characterized by objective civilized processes of global urbanization, as a result of which architecture itself becomes a cause of a disturbance in the state of balance of the environment for human life and the cause of the ecological crisis. It is known that under the influence of such anthropogenic factors as a decrease in the transparency of the atmosphere due to the growth of cities and industry, insolation resources are changing in residential areas. In the framework of the concept of an urban-ecological approach in the formation of the human environment, the problems of creating a comfortable bioclimatic architecture or ecological buildings that allow the multilateral use of the energy of the Sun are highlighted.Among the factors determining the quality of the environment, an important place is occupied by the natural light environment, which largely depends on the nature of the light climate. Sunlight has a comprehensive impact on all major categories of architecture, including light comfort, durability, expressiveness, and economy. The appropriate level and quality of lighting in rooms and urban areas is an important prerequisite for creating light comfortable living conditions for a person, contributes to his creative activity, increase labor productivity and improve leisure conditions. The parameters of the light environment are one of the main elements that form the microclimate of the premises.In many developed countries, in connection with the expansion of megacities, the issue of not only functional, but also visual aesthetic comfort of the environment is becoming relevant. Creating a light environment that meets the practical, psychological andaesthetic requirements of the people who live in it is one of the most important tasks of an architect. Knowledge of the basic compositional properties of lighting, the ways of its rational use in architecture, and the possession of methodological skillsin architectural design contribute to the successful solution of this problem. Lighting conditions determine the correct perception of the compositional rhythm, the proportions and depth of the premises, plastics and color finishes of the surface.The concept of a light environment includes the integral coordination of the components of natural and artificial lighting, considered in unity and interaction. The progressive reception of integrated (combined) lighting is dictated by social need and is reflected in improving the quality of lighting and in saving resources for the design and construction of buildings and structures.Modern advances in the field of fundamental and natural sciences allow us to improve the methods and means of research and forecasting in the knowledge of the complex interaction of man and the environment. The main task is to optimize the light environment in architecture with the rational use of energy and natural resources.The analysis of scientific works and design practice of architectural firms of Ukraine allowed us to identify a number of unresolved issues (in the aspect of accounting and solving the problem of the comfort of the lighting environment in architecture): 1) black-and-white shaping as a specific tool for architectural composition to achieve plastic expressiveness and as a tool for the architect’s creativity; 2) in the process of developing the facades of buildings for various purposes, the relation to the functional and formative function of light is traced; 3) theeffect of sunlight on interior spaces; 4) the effect of sunlight on residents in high-rise residential buildings. The problem of creating a comfortable lighting environment in European architecture has not been comprehensively considered to date, which served as the basis for analysis and discussion in this work.The comfort of the light environment is lighting, it is the light formation of the interior spaces of architectural objects. The comfort of the lighting environment can satisfy people in the interior according to many requirements, divided into qualitative and quantitative categories.Quantitative categories are determined by the level of necessary illumination. Qualitative categories are determined by the spectral composition of light and its distribution in space.

This research focuses on understanding the relationship betweenlight art and architectural lighting design and determining towhat extent can aspects of light art be used when designingfunctional lighting for architecture.The first part of this paper looks into the historical applicationof light as a material. Light has been an important element inart even prior to the introduction of artificial light sources, butthe exploration of light as an independent material throughinstallation art only developed in the last century. Similarly inarchitecture, the impact of light on creating and shaping spaceshas been recognized since ancient times, yet it was much longerbefore the development of lighting design as an autonomousdiscipline.In recent years there is an increased need for creative expressionfrom lighting designers who are pushing the boundaries ofcommunication through light. In order to understand the extentto which successful innovative lighting schemes can drawinspiration from artwork, this research further analyses keyvisual and emotional properties of light art, as well as potentialconstraints of functional spaces. Distinction of roles of the artistand designer as well as the conditions in which they work withthe medium of light pose a challenge in relating these twodisciplines.Findings from first two parts of this research are further used toanalyse an example of an architectural lighting project, to drawconclusions about light art’s applicability to functional lighting.

Lighting, and its emergence as a digital and networked medium, represents an ideal platform for conducting research on both sensor and human-derived methods of control. Notably, solid-state lighting makes possible the control of the intensity, spatial, and color attributes of lighting in real-time. This technology provides an excellent opportunity to conduct new experiments designed to study how we perceive, judge, and subsequently control illumination. For example, given the near-infinite variation of possible lighting attributes, how might one design an intuitive control system? Moreover, how can one reconcile the objective nature of sensor-based controls with the subjective impressions of humans? How might this approach guide the design of lighting controls and ultimately guide the design of lighting itself? These questions are asked with the benefit of hindsight. Simple control schemes using sliders, knobs, dials, and motion sensors currently in use fail to anticipate human understanding of the controls and the possible effects that changes in illumination will have upon us. In this work, the problem of how humans interact with this new lighting medium is cast as a human-computer interaction. I describe the design and validation of a natural interface for lighting by abstracting the manifold lighting parameters into a simpler set of controls. Conceptually, this "simpler set" is predicated on the theory that we are capable of discerning the similarities and differences between lighting arrangements (scenes). I hypothesize that this natural ordering (a metric space in a latent multidimensional basis) can be quantitatively extracted and analyzed. First, in a series of controlled experiments, I show how one can derive this mapping and I demonstrate, using empirical evidence, how future sensor networks will eventually emulate our subjective impressions of lighting. Second, using data obtained in a user-study, I quantitatively derive performance estimates of my proposed lighting user interface, and statistically contrast these performance results with those obtained using a traditional interface comprised of sliders and buttons. I demonstrate that my approach enables the user to attain their illumination goals while substantially reducing task-time and fatigue.

The purpose of this handbook is twofold. First, it is to be used as a guide for maintenance personnel when they have to deal with the lighting system. Whi 1 e the 1 i ghti ng 1 oads are typical of those in any large building, the control functions and equipment operation require some specific information for proper performance. Second, it can be used by the person in charge of scheduling to gain a greater understanding of how the system works. Although a detailed understanding isn't necessary, it is helpful to know what is out there and why it does what it is supposed to do.The reason for the development of this handbook is that with all of the literature produced by the manufacturer there was no single source, or starting point, that explained the whole package. There is a great deal of information in each of the various publications and with this handbook one should easily be able to utilize it. In order to use this book most effectively one should have the manufacturer's documents on hand for reference as they are referred to frequently. In addition the flow charts enhance one's ability "to know where you are” when using the terminal for data entry.Department of Architecture

Full textAbstract:
The aim of this diploma thesis work was to create new applications for intelligent and adaptive lighting in retail environment. Lighting is an important factor in generating atmosphere in retail space and it has been shown to affect customer behavior. Combining intelligent technology with lighting design enables new applications for creating an environment that senses the presence of the user. It can be employed to adapt the lighting to inform and guide the customer by creating visual focal points. Alternatively, the level of illumination can be adapted to the different requirements of the use, e.g. the presence of customers or employees. The methods used in this study were scenario working and implementation. Four major themes were defined to approach the subject: 1. Navigation and guidance, 2. Product display and browsing, 3. Pleasure and entertainment, and 4. Natural light and simulated natural light. The themes were studied in a form of short stories written from point of view of both customer or designer, and the chosen applications were further studied and implemented in a hypermarket environment. The implementations were presented as two case studies: Aisles and shelves and Landmarks and dynamic display lighting. The first case study describes lighting of the grocery store shelves. The following things were considered in the design: the noticeability of the ends of the shelves that have high value in product placement, the direction of the light, and the adaptability of lighting to the customer’s presence. An approaching customer triggers the sequential brightening of luminaires in between the shelves. The second case study considered focal points in retail environment and dynamic display lighting. In the lighting design, the landmarks, or focal points, are areas of interest that appeal and guide the customer. This is achieved in the design by using higher intensity of light compared to the surrounding environment or more colorful lighting. By displaying products under dynamic lighting, the changes in light intensity attract customer’s attention and increase the noticeability of products illuminated in this fashion. Lighting is a versatile tool that can be easily used to change the appearance and atmosphere of retail environment from one season to another, keeping the store interesting and appealing to the customer. With current technology, these changes can be applied in an intelligent and adaptive manner: lighting can interact with customers and employees, and it can be made easily controllable for designers and visualists. The discovered applications can be applied to several types of retail environments, and depending on the application, also to other types of architectural spaces, for example museums and exhibition spacesDiplomityöni tavoitteena on kehittää uudenlaisia älykkäitä ja mukautuvia valaistusratkaisuita myymälätiloihin. Valaistus on tärkeä myymälätilojen ilmapiirille ja sen on osoitettu vaikuttavan asiakkaan käyttäytymiseen. Kun valaistussuunnittelu soveltaa älykästä teknologiaa, ihmisen läsnäoloa aistivaa ympäristöä voidaan toteuttaa uusilla tavoilla. Vaihtoehtoisesti, valaistuksen tasoa voidaan säätää tilan eri käyttötarkoituksen mukaan, esimerkiksi asiakkaan tai henkilökunnan tarpeisiin. Diplomityöni on tehty käyttäen menetelminä skenaariotyöskentelyä ja suunnittelua. Käsittelin aihetta neljän pääteeman mukaisesti: 1. Liikkuminen ja ohjaaminen, 2. Esillepano ja löytäminen, 3. Viihtyminen ja viihdyttäminen sekä 4. Luonnonvalo ja luonnonvalon simulointi. Kirjoitin teemoista lyhyitä tarinoita asiakkaan ja suunnittelijan näkökulmista. Tutkin valittuja käyttökohteita tarkemmin ja sovelsin suunnitelmia hypermarket-ympäristöön. Esittelen suunnitelmaosuuden kahden esimerkin kautta: Hyllyt ja käytävät sekä Kiintopisteet ja dynaaminen tuotevalaistus. Ensimmäinen esimerkki käsittelee ruokaosaston hyllyjen valaistusta. Suunnittelussa olen kiinnittänyt huomiota hyllyjen päätyyn sijoitettujen tuotteiden näkyvyyteen, valon suuntaukseen ja valaistuksen mukautumiseen asiakkaan läsnäoloon. Lähestyvä asiakas aktivoi hyllyjen väliin sijoitettujen valaisinten vaiheittaisen kirkastumisen. Toisessa esimerkissä käsittelen kiintopisteitä myymälätilassa ja dynaamista tuotteiden valaistusta. Olen käyttänyt kiintopisteiden valaisussa ympäristöä suurempaa valon intensiteettiä tai värillistä valoa houkuttelemaan ja ohjaamaan asiakasta. Tuotteisiin kohdistuvan valon määrän muutokset herättävät asiakkaan mielenkiinnon lisäten valaistujen tuotteiden näkyvyyttä. Valaistus on monipuolinen työkalu, jolla voi helposti muuttaa myymälätilan ilmettä ja tunnelmaa ja siten pitää yllä asiakkaan mielenkiintoa sesongista toiseen. Älykkään nykyteknologian keinoin voidaan toteuttaa mukautuva, asiakkaan ja työntekijän kanssa vuorovaikuttava valaistus, joka on helposti suunnittelijan ja visualistin toteutettavissa ja ohjattavissa.

Energy conservation concerns will mandate near-future environments to regulate themselves to accommodate occupants' objectives and best tend to their comfort while minimizing energy consumption. Accordingly, smart energy management will be a needed and motivating application area of evolving Cyber-Physical Systems, as user state, behavior and context are measured, inferred, and leveraged across a variety of domains, environments, sensors, and actuators to dynamically mitigate energy usage while attaining implicit and explicit user goals. In this work, the focus in on the efficient control of a LED-based lighting network. This thesis presents a first-of-its-kind pentachromatic LED-based lighting network that is capable of adjusting its spectral output in response to ambient conditions and the user's preferences. The control of the intensity is formulated as a nonlinear optimization problem and the mathematics governing sensed illuminance, color, and corresponding control (feedback and adjustment) are formally defined. The prototype adjustable light source is capable of maintaining an average color rendering index greater than 92 (nearly the quality of daylight) across a broad adjustable range (2800 K - 10,000 K) and offers two modes of control, one of which is an energy efficient mode that reduces the total power consumption by 20%. The lighting network is capable of measuring the illuminance and color temperature at a surface and adjusting its output with an overall update rate of 11 Hz (limited by the MATLAB kernel). The sensor node features an optical suite of sensors with a dynamic range of 10000 : 1 lx (rms error: 2 lx). The sensor node measures the color temperature of daylight within ±500 K (kelvin). Device testing and validation were performed in a series of experiments in which the radiant power was collected using a radiometrically calibrated spectrometer with an expanded uncertainty (k = 2) of 14% and validated against a model derived by measuring the individual spectra of the system using custom MATLAB tools. A digital multimeter measured the current in the experiments. The work concludes by estimating the energy savings based on the measured optical and electrical data. In environments with moderate ambient lighting, the networked control reduces power consumption by 44% with an additional 5-10% possible with spectral optimization.

Full textAbstract:
As of today, around 19% of all electricity that is produced around the world goes toward lighting roads and cities. The light is also produced in a wasteful manner, creating disturbances in nature as well as for people. Recent developments in light emitting diodes offers remedy to these problems but the technology needs a proper revision of street lighting’s purposes. Light emitting diodes use a fraction of the energy needed for previous lighting methods. They offer unique implementation opportunities in physical construction as well as being highly controllable which makes them highly adaptable. The thesis looks at how aesthetics can be used to optimally introduce the upcoming worldwide installation of the new technology. Its unique characteristics were looked at and used to create a Korean styled luminaire and an interactive street lighting system in two separate design processes. The results of the developments were firstly, a modular luminaire which combines Korean architectural aesthetics with a cost effective construction. The second result was an interactive urban street lighting system which suggests a dimmable lighting that through an adaptable computer control responds to pedestrians’ presences. This is a master’s thesis (D7014A) is a project in product design at the education of industrial design engineering at Luleå University of Technology and is worth 30 credits. The project spanned 20 weeks during the spring semester of 2016. The project was conducted in collaboration with Pukyong National University’s industrial design department, in Busan, South Korea.Omkring 19% av all elektricitet som produceras idag runtom i världen åtgår till att belysa vägar och städer. Ljuset som produceras även i ett slösaktigt utförande som skapar störningar i natur såväl som för människor. Nya utvecklingar kring ljusdioder kan bringa bot till dessa problem men teknologin kräver en passande revision av gatubelysningars roller i samhället. Dioderna använder nämligen en bråkdel av energin äldre belysningsmetoder kräver och medför en revolution i fysiska implementeringsmöjligheter medans de även låter sig kontrolleras till en hög grad. Dessa egenskaper gör att de har en oöverträffad anpassningsbarhet. Examensarbetet ser till hur estetik kan användas för att optimalt introducera lamporna i den världomfattande installationen dem. Lampornas unika möjligheter undersöktes och användes till att utveckla ett Koreansk-inspirerat gatulyse och ett interaktivt belysningssystem i två separata designprocesser. Resultatet av utvecklingarna var först, en modulbaserad armatur med en kostnadseffektiv konstruktion. Det andra resultatet var ett interaktivt stadsbelynsingssystem som föreslår ett dämpningsbart system vilket genom en adapterbar dator svarar på fotgängares närvaro. Detta examensarbete (D7014A) är ett projekt inom industriell design på utbildningen Teknisk design vid Luleå Tekniska Universitet och innefattar 30 högskolepoäng. Projektet sträckte sig över 20 veckor under vårterminen 2016. Arbetet utfördes i samarbete med Pukyong National Universitys institution för industriell design i Busan, Sydkorea.

Full textAbstract:
Smart cities comprise highly dynamic, complex and softwareintensive systems planned and created to cope with problems inherent to the increasing world population, such as need for life quality in cities, intense traffic, and sustainability. Owing to such complexity and dynamics, static notations, such as Unified Modeling Language (UML) and Systems Modeling Language (SysML), are often unable to support a precise conception, planning and design of those smart cities. In turn, the combination of traditional modeling and simulation (M&S) could leverage the design of such systems by enabling the analysis of both structure and behavior aspects still at design-time. The main contribution of this paper is offering evidence to support the premise of M&S be a promising paradigm for software engineering, including in smart cities domain. We report findings on a study carried out for assessing, via M&S, two architectures for a Public Street Lighting System (PSLS) of a smart city. The first architecture uses a hub as intermediator between luminaries and PSLS. The second architecture uses software-intensive luminaries connected to the PSLS using publish/subscribe architectural style. Preliminary results show that the publish/subscribe architecture delivers a greater degree of correctness than the former. Additionally, we conjecture that the adoption of M&S can foster the identification of smart cities behaviors and the identification of, at design-time, properties that could be noticed only after the system has been already deployed.
