Keywords: Landscape Lighting

The landscape lighting work in cities has improved significantly. Many people may think this work is simple, just installing lights on trees and such, but it is not that simple. It needs to follow certain principles. Do you know what the principles are? The principles should fully reflect the characteristics of "people-oriented, economical and practical, low-carbon living, and environmental protection," advocating for green lighting. Additionally, do you know what factors cannot be ignored in design? The main factors are layout and scale. Below, I will provide a detailed introduction to these issues.

Principles of Urban Landscape Lighting:

In urban lighting construction, a complete overall planning scheme for "urban landscape lighting projects" must be developed, designing ecological and environmentally friendly night lighting. Relevant departments such as urban construction and environmental protection should establish corresponding systems and formulate monitoring and management methods, ensuring that the review, identification, and acceptance of urban lighting projects regarding light pollution are carried out effectively.

Urban landscape lighting should fully reflect the characteristics of "people-oriented, economical and practical, low-carbon living, and environmental protection," focusing on beautifying the city and highlighting nature. Green lighting should be strongly advocated, especially in government departments and public places, which should use certified energy-saving lamps as much as possible.

Strictly follow the requirements set by national departments for urban lighting, limiting decorative landscape lighting to ensure that urban landscape lighting projects are luxurious but not extravagant. Further standardize commercial behavior, scientifically manage and reasonably plan for stalls, neon lights, and billboards, and control vehicle light pollution.

During holidays, colorful lights create an atmosphere, and naturally, landscape lighting is necessary. However, during regular times, landscape lighting should be moderate. Except for major holidays, reduce the number of lights used while meeting lighting requirements, and prohibit high-energy-consuming lamps. In the construction of urban landscape lighting projects, emphasis should be placed on promoting greening, purifying, and beautifying. Around entertainment venues and buildings, more grass, flowers, trees, and water surfaces should be planted to improve the light environment.

Factors Not to Be Ignored in Urban Landscape Lighting Design:

When designing urban landscape lighting, there are several factors that cannot be ignored, mainly layout and scale. Below, I will provide a detailed analysis of these two factors.

　　1. Layout

Layout is the central issue of design methods and techniques. Even with good intentions and environmental conditions, if the layout is chaotic and lacks rules, it cannot become a good work. The content of layout is very broad, involving everything from overall planning to the handling of layout buildings.

　　2. Scale

Scale refers to the comparison of various components within a space to objects with a certain natural scale. It is an important factor that cannot be ignored in landscape lighting design. Function, aesthetics, and environmental characteristics are the basis for determining building scale. The correct scale should align with functional and aesthetic requirements and coordinate with the environment. However, in landscape design, in addition to buildings, there are also mountains, rocks, flowers, trees, ponds, sculptures, bridges, etc. They cannot just be placed randomly.

Therefore, in any design, it is essential to consider whether these scenes coordinate with the main building, whether they overshadow it, and whether they are easily accepted by people. Only when the scale and proportion are correct can it give a friendly and comfortable feeling, making the environment lively and vibrant, thus truly achieving the design effect.

The above is an introduction to the principles of urban landscape lighting and several factors that cannot be ignored in design. Friends involved in related work can delve deeper into this, hoping it will be helpful to everyone.
