Module Indicative Content
The knowledge and skills contained within this Module will enable students to remove unintended consequences of any design impact upon the final appearance of the lighting design. This is achieved through developing an understanding of the creative potential of lighting design underpinned by sufficient science to quantify the metrics required to fulfil a broad variety of design criteria. For example: students will research the effects of natural and artificial light with a view to the development of a detailed lighting plan for an interior scheme.
