Objectives of the Course Students; It aims to learn the concept of lighting design and provide the ability to establish and analyze sustainable lighting schemes that create good visual conditions in the context of lighting principles.
Course Content Within the scope of the course, the relationship between architecture and lighting, definitions and concepts related to lighting are discussed with presentations and theoretical discussions. In the context of natural and artificial lighting principles, information on establishing an artificial lighting system suitable for the function and action in the space is conveyed through presentations and resources. The student establishes a lighting scheme using the given information and analyzes the scheme he has established with a computer simulation program.
Course Methods and Techniques Ppt. by supporting the theoretical information compiled from the sources with examples. Presentation,
In-class theoretical discussions, computer-aided applications.
