Is this enough light? 

with Kelly Inglis 

There is not one single answer, as several factors apply. Do you want to create an emotional space that speaks to your design? Learn what creates the ultimate lighting plan and what is required to light both kitchens and bathrooms.

When we look at a space, 80% of what we view is at eye level. The light draws the eye and sets the tone of our perception of the room. Do your clients prefer darker, more intimate spaces, or are they happy to relax in a brighter room? We will connect the emotional interaction within both natural and artificial light sources. Discover how to utilize lighting effects, manage lighting layers and capture the essence of both architecture and interior elements. Prepare to feel enlightened and energized to shine your design with confidence.

Objectives

• Learn how to determine the amount of light required for kitchens and bathrooms
• Layouts and lighting application
• Define the emotional interaction with natural and artificial light design
