Lighting Sales Operations Group Leader Landscape Forms
Lighting design in the outdoors needs to take into consideration not only human activities, but also the context of pedestrian spaces, among them the architecture, changes based on day to night, and adjacencies to the space. This session will discuss the hierarchy of design elements to consider when lighting outdoor spaces for people and how they live, learn, work, care, play and travel. In addition, it will also explore the varying types of lighting zones, the applications of those zones, and the amount of light to be used within those lighting zones.
