Lighting Design Concepts

Maximize the use of day lighting. Use energy efficient lighting components,

controls and systems. better.

Keep in mind that more light is not necessarily Match the amount and quality of light to the

performed function.
Install task lights where needed and reduce

ambient light elsewhere.

Daylighting
Maximum benefit of daylight Should be considered during the design phase

-More windows & glass walls

Modern innovative methods:

-Light pipes to direct day light

Special intelligent light fittings are now

Energy Efficient Light Bulbs

Compact Fluorescent Lamps (CFL) LED Lamps High Intensity Discharge (HID) and Low

Pressure Sodium Lamps (for outdoor lighting)

Fluorescent Lamps
Fluorescent lights are available in a wide

range of types, sizes and color

Standard tube fluorescent.

Compact fluorescent, which fit into a standard

lamp.
Circline fluorescent, which are circular in shape. Fluorescent reflector floodlights and spotlights

Benefits of CFL
One of the most energy efficient type of light

available.

Saves up to 75% on the lighting portion of the

electric bill.
Can produce the same warm color associated

with incandescent lights.

Used for both ambient and task lighting. Available in compact sizes.
