The history of great architecture is the history of buildings that adapt creatively to light. Light possesses the power to transform an ordinary building into a majestic edifice that inspires awe. Architects rely heavily on light, looking to it as a tool that reveals form and forges the important connection between vision and construction.Designing With Light, by award-winning architect Victoria Meyers, explores the myriad ways in which light is used in contemporary architecture, both internally and externally, to enhance the design and sense of space in a building. Vivid color photographs depict how architects employ light in buildings such as the Guggenheim Las Vegas and the National Gallery of Canada. Meyer looks at recent developments in the science of light, giving an overview of the history of light in architecture and demonstrating how the use of light in film, theater, and art has influenced light’s use in architecture. Meyers goes on to discuss how light creates architectural features such as color, line, and form, and how architects strive to control light through glass, windows, skylights, and the manipulation of shadow and reflection. She clearly illustrates these cases with intriguing examples from recent buildings designed by internationally renowned architects including Zaha Hadid, Steven Holl, Herzog & de Meuron, Rem Koolhaas, John Pawson and many others. Meyers’ lively, informative text and hundreds of rich color photographs are sure to fascinate those interested in architecture and design.

Light: The Shape of Space Designing with Space and Light Lou Michel Every design professional who touches a space shapes the light and the feeling of that space. Architect, lighting engineer, interior designer, lighting or home furnishing manufacturer: each contributes an aesthetic layer, sometimes yielding unexpected results. All too often the best laid plans of one professional are unintentionally subverted by another. Removing surprises and guess work from design, Lou Michel, honored architectural lighting educator, has created Light: The Shape of Space, showing how to design with the effects of light rather than light itself. The book is a revolutionary resource for all design professionals and manufacturers of surfacing materials. Drawing on over fifteen years' experience of research and teaching in the architectural Space and Light Laboratory at The University of Kansas, Michel masterfully examines the interrelationship of lighting and the design of architectural space as perceived not in architectural photos or paint chips and fabric swatches, but by human vision -- the gateway to emotional response. The book was written for professionals who care about how people feel in the spaces they design, and focuses on the humanization of architecture. Taking a non-stylistic approach to design, Michel analyzes architecture from the perspective of how the users see their surroundings as they move through space. The reader will learn what pleases and what disturbs people based on how the human visual system responds to color, texture, pattern, and brightness. The book features principles of design for the student and professional, and is generously supported by illustrations and research. Michel also provides a method for evaluating the visual effectiveness of building materials and lighting systems, including those that will appear on the market long after this book is dog-eared. Michel unveils a groundbreaking luminance brightness rating system (LBR) and a nine-zone brightness scale to aid designers in previsualizing the appearance of surfacing materials at every stage of the design process, from schematics to development to refinement. Among the topics treated are:* the interaction of lighting and spatial design* color theory for space and light* the luminance relationships between free-standing objects and the surrounding spatial boundaries against which they are seen* the appearance of building materials in color and brightness when modified by light and spatial location* lighting spatial connections, including the perception of rooms adjacent to the observer* lighting and perception of spaces screened by architectural grilles* creating lighted spaceDesigning with the effects of light is both an art and a science. No other book on the market bridges that gap as successfully as Light: The Shape of Space.

Natural Light has an ingenious solution! The light kit can be installed in the previous fixture's ceiling rough out or can be added anywhere with additional electrical wiring. The light kit can hold standard, CFL (compact fluorescent) or LED light bulbs. The light kit adds an electric light fixture into your tubular skylight for night time use. The light fixture is installed directly into the lower portion of the light pipe and is wired to a wall switch. For maximum energy efficiency, Natural Light recommends using CFL or LED bulbs. Installation of the light kit is very straightforward, but does require electrical wiring skills. A small hole is drilled in the lower section of the light pipe to accommodate the light fixture. The main lamp bracket comes assembled, but needs to be attached to the light pipe with the supplied nuts and washers. The kit must be wired to 120 VAC supply according to local codes and must be properly grounded. Complete instructions are included with each kit for easy installation.
