Realizing the ideal lighting effect in architectural lighting is not a simple matter. Comprehensive consideration from the aspects of color selection, projection direction, lighting brightness, selection and installation of lamps and lanterns. In addition, various ways of lighting expression of architectural culture and image were carried out, and specific lighting effects of comparison, primary and secondary, and focus were achieved through different lighting designs.
1, color
The clever use of light and color is one of the important expressions of architectural culture in the entire lighting project. It plays a vital role in shaping the image of the building, creating the atmosphere, and enhancing the attractiveness of the building. Color has guiding significance, symbolism and emotion. Through the use of color and light, it reshapes a new expression different from daytime, brings people a new emotional experience, and increases the charm and expressiveness of the building.
2. Control the lighting direction of the night scene
By controlling the angle and direction of night scene lighting, such as using a bottom-up light beam, the visual effect will be different from that during the day, breaking the pattern of light and shadow produced by natural light, and emphasizing the characteristics of building details. In this way, the building does not have a full display of features during the day.
3, control illuminance and brightness
Control the illuminance of the lighting
4. Combination of different lighting methods
The combination of different lighting methods such as projection lighting, translucent lighting, contour lighting or special lighting can form different lighting effects of points, lines and surfaces, and increase the sense of hierarchy.
5. Determine the viewing angle
In architectural lighting design, by determining the main angle of view, and then determining the important facade of night lighting, the lighting design of the main and secondary facades of the building can be different. At the same time, the lighting design of the main and secondary facades of the building is also different. It can be different, and at the same time, the viewing effect of distance, medium and short distance, and different viewing effects of the building itself can be considered, thereby enriching the night scene image of the building.
6. Use symbolic elements
Combining the characteristics of the building, using symbolic elements (such as graphics, signs, etc.) for night lighting design can make the architectural cultural characteristics more prominent.
7. The use of lamps
Night scene lighting lamps and lanterns used in buildings, most of the night scene lighting lamps are located in hidden parts, not as the visual center, and do not affect the shape of the building itself. The surrounding environment of the building can be illuminated by landscape lights, courtyard lights, etc. It can emphasize architectural culture through the design of lamps.
