A month later, around the same time, the sun is still shinning bright and high onto the courtyard of the EUC. This sunlight casts a large amount of shadows but still enters the space and is reflected from the marble flooring. This picture can be compared to January 29th around 1:45 p.m. with a large amount of shadows cast. As the days get longer, the amount of light washed into the space is absorbed and reflected off the various materials.

HID Lamps; Street lamps





-To provide suitable lighting in a parking lot

-A high power density illuminates a large amount of light into the parking lot to provide a safe and visible area

-The level of luminance is appropriate for this setting because the power density is not too strong to hinder and affect the surrounding homes.

-Recommendations I would suggest would be to have more amount of these lamps distributed around the parking lot. This will provide more light but not affect the surrounding apartments.

Fluorescent Lamps; Gatewood Studio Arts Building

























-To gather as a class and student body to perform various projects, assignments, meetings

-To provide an ambient luminance for a large gathering space

-Large Fluorescent lamps hung from the very tall ceiling will wash the gathering space with even distribution of light

-Fluorescent track lighting is provided on a lower height to allow projects, drawings, art to be washed with light directly

-This white light as well with the mixture of daylight reflect a cool, even color distribution that provides true color

-This level of illumination is necessary for cloudy days and dark nights but the daylight provides a large amount of light to perform tasks in this space

-I believe the lighting quality in this space is very efficient for the tasks performed here. Motion sensors should be provided to cut off illumination intensity during the day time, which can maximize efficiency.

Incandescent Residential Living Room






-Relaxing setting used as a gathering space, informal lounge place

-Illuminate various project tasks, accent lighting for aesthetics

-Tall floor lamp illuminates upwards and washes two walls. Another table lamp may be used for additional lighting diffusion

-This upwards light is washed on both walls and reflected to illuminate the whole space

-This incandescent lamp source may be perceived as a more yellowish color tone.

-The appropriateness of the illumination level is suitable for this space needs. Detail tasks are not performed here, but a more conversational, gather space may allow less illumination level.

-My recommendations for the improving of the lighting environment would be to add more layers of lighting in this one space. This will provide a more dynamic space and will allow more detail tasks to be performed with more intense lighting.

Incandescent lamps provide a soft glow throughout the space. The wall sconces give an intimate setting providing little task light.
