The aim of night illumination is to recall the whole object image, as it is in the daylight city panorama. In building illumination we reach for solutions which are suitable for object function and architecture. Illumination with light cast from different directions is to expose details of the object's architecture by play of light and shadow on facades and details of the building. Architectural lighting is also often used inside. Architectural interior lighting uses a number of formal solutions, in which light is emitted from behind the edges screening the luminaires. This kind of solution gives indirect illumination of ceilings or walls and light sources are invisible.This article discusses the role, tasks of illuminating, and architectural lighting and presents lighting effects obtained for design implementation, where the architecture and indoor arrangement or the building's façade architecture were linked with architectural lighting.
Designing the illumination of monuments requires an analysis of a number of determinants of their meaning and symbolism and the emotion which lighting should express. When choosing lighting solutions, the rules used in stage lighting may be helpful. Computer visualization of effects in different ways of illuminating an object facilitates the evaluation and choice of final lighting solutions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
