ABSTRACT

The flow diagram shown in Figure 3.1 presents a design approach, based on reasonable practice, to applying the principles, recommendations and technology described elsewhere in the Code. With experience, the lighting designer will develop this to arrive at individual design solutions. This reference to ‘the lighting designer’ should not be read to imply that the design process can be carried out in isolation. All successful lighting is the result of close collaboration and interaction within the building design team, to interpret the client’s brief. The purpose of this section, however, is to concentrate on the lighting designer’s responsibility and contribution to the total design process.
