When designing night lighting for urban architecture, what should be taken into consideration?
May 15,2018
The night scene in the city is an important component of urban lighting. Appropriate urban lighting design can enhance the aesthetic appeal of the city, making the entire night scene more beautiful. If urban lighting is used unreasonably, it can create discomfort for people and destroy the original feel of buildings, reducing the beauty of the night scene.
Currently, commonly used night scene lighting includes halogen lamps and high-pressure sodium lamps, which have low color temperatures and warm color tones; metal halide lamps and high-pressure mercury lamps have high color temperatures and cool color tones. The color rendering properties of different lamps vary.
Choosing a light source with an appropriate color temperature based on the color of the building materials can enhance the lighting effect and create a unique atmosphere. Different color temperature floodlights can also be selected for different parts of a building to emphasize its layers.
However, colored lights should be used with caution. Because colored light has a strong emotional tone, using colored light to enhance a certain color also changes the tones of other colors on the building facade, causing color imbalance. Therefore, colored lighting fixtures should not be used indiscriminately or excessively.
The first step in designing night scene lighting for buildings is conceptualization. This involves imagining the possible lighting effects at night based on the building's shape and exterior materials.
Therefore, we must first understand the different conditions of natural light during the day and artificial light at night. Based on a careful analysis of the building's characteristics and image connotations, we can reshape a new image for the building that is distinctly different from the daytime through the changes of light and shadow.
