The importance of architectural lighting
“Space and light and order. Those
are the things that men need just as much as they need bread or a place to
sleep”
-Le Corbusier,
August27, 1965
The way lighting can help
bring value to the function of architecture.
Architectural lighting plays a vital role
in the way people experience and understand architecture. Whether buildings and
structures are lit naturally or artificially, Lighting is the medium that
allows us to see and appreciate the beauty in the buildings around us.
Architectural lighting can bring an
emotional value to architecture – it helps create an experience for those who
occupy the space. Without lighting, where would architecture be? Would it still
have the same impact? No, it wouldn’t. Whether it’s daylighting or artificial
lighting, light draws attention to textures, colors, and forms of a space,
helping architecture achieve its true purpose. Vision is the single most
important sense through which we enjoy architecture, and architectural lighting enhances the
way we perceive architecture even more.
