    In this webinar Richard will talk about interior lighting through 3 cultural & worship projects.

     

    Richard will be talking about interior lighting design, touching different elements that will impact the profession and how lighting design is implemented in China.

     

    As one important factor of interior space, interior lighting has two functions:

    Firstly, lighting should meet the requirement of visual performance of the users, talking about the development of interior lighting design and meeting quality standards. What is the working process related to interior lighting design? Tune in to learn more.

     

    Secondly, lighting itself as one factor of the combined interior space should convey the space- spirit. In another word, lighting is the translator of interior.  When facing the challenge of a complicated interior project, an interior designer is hard to succeed if without the help of a good lighting consultant.

    He will be talking about how lighting can reveal the space-spirit through some cultural & worship projects, using accent lighting and how you can evoke an emotional reaction by using ambient lighting.


    Interior lighting is a way to express the interior structural identity. This lecture will be a great opportunity to learn or be inspired by one of the leading lighting designers in China and beyond.
