This subject requires the student to examine the principles of natural and artificial lighting interior spaces and their application in designing interior spaces that satisfy human needs of comfort and security. A series of lectures, tutorial exercises, research projects, site visits and applied design projects allows the students to gain experience in using light to enhance the quality of the interior space. The issues of daylight and artificial lighting raised in the lectures are explored through detailed design projects that investigate the manipulation of the interior space to achieve the desired behavioural outcome for the users.
