There are generally two manifestations of the top of the building at night: contour lighting and flood lighting. It is recommended to use lighting for the top performance of buildings along the street, and use contour lighting or floodlight with a lower level of brightness and chroma...







1. Night organization of street vision. Some Western European countries pay attention to both the role of street vision and the composition of the vision in the organization of urban night landscape. The focus of the vision is mostly to use monument-like buildings, gates, and towers. However, in some cities, instead of simply adopting these artificial scenery as the distant view, it uses the method of combining the street axis with the natural landscape such as the mountain and the water surface, actively applying them to the street night landscape lighting, and enriching people at night. While feeling the street, it also helps to highlight its personality.





2. Humanities activities. The various night activities that people carry out on the street are the prerequisites for planning and design. Before planning and designing street night landscape lighting, we should first consider what human activities will exist in the street as an object at night. If the object of planning and design is a prosperous street, then it must be based on the premise that there are many pedestrians that often gather on the street, and people are the main role of the street night landscape lighting. In this case, the design of street landscape lighting should be considered according to the needs of people's activities. However, if it is a street with many motor vehicles, the night landscape lighting composition required by the driver must first be considered.





3. The changing factors of street night landscape lighting. Season is also an important factor in the lighting of street night landscapes. The change of seasons determines the choice of light source. For example, 'hot' light sources such as high-pressure sodium lamps can be used on deciduous trees in winter; while in summer, cold light sources with high color temperatures should be used for leaves. If conditions permit, two sets of lighting devices for each season can be placed on natural objects such as trees.


Seasonal changes have an impact on the pools at the nodes of urban streets. Especially in the north, the pools are mostly empty in winter, which changes the night landscape characteristics of the area. Therefore, this point must be taken into consideration when planning. Corresponding winter night landscape change measures. Harbin makes full use of the snow in winter and uses snow as the background to highlight the individuality of the street night landscape. It is made into ice and snow sculptures to beautify the night landscape of the winter city.


For natural seasonal changes, climate, sunny and rainy days and other natural factors, as long as they are carefully studied and utilized, they will become indispensable factors for enriching the street night landscape.
