Without light, interior architecture cannot be fully designed and experienced. It is one of the key tools for an interior designer, but can be a dauntingly technical subject for students.

Part One, Theory, looks at the physics and technology behind lighting. Part Two, Process and Practice, looks more specifically at the use of lighting in interior design and outlines the key design issues and principles. The book goes on to show the ways of representing lighting schemes using CAD and 3D models and how to implement and test these designs. Finally, the book explains how to deal with contractors, clients and other professionals.

This book takes a detailed, practical look at lighting in interior design, giving students all the key information and skills they need to be able to tackle lighting successfully in their designs.

Excellent book for creating artistic lighting

Reviewed in the United States on December 4, 2014

I ordered this book because I have to advise on lighting a long hallway in a condominium. The book has many helpful photos and suggestions. Before reading this book I was looking for decorative fixtures as well as other more standard fixtures. The book is about aesthetic lighting, which is far more important than the aesthetics of the fixtures. Its examples have very lovely lighting, many of which are fairly standard recessed or soffit luminaires, which themselves are not decorative fixtures. It taught me to focus my attention on how to create artistic lighting.

Purchased this for a lighting design class and all is good so far. the professor said they selected this book because it had the most color illustrations and photos of all the books they reviewed. It is also cheaper than other text options. This book is published in the UK, so some of the word spellings vary from american english, but nothing too confusing. I received the book from this seller quickly and it was less expensive than purchasing it from the university bnookstore.

This book is a guide

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 28, 2013

It is not exactly what I was looking for when studying lighting design, it is not complete enough in the sense that it did not provide me with the right information on placement of lighting. Basically I could not use this book alone- unlilke Lighting Basics!!!!
