تأثير اتجاه مصدر الضوء و تطبيقاته في التصميم الداخلي

الملخص EN

To successfully achieve the various lighting functions within a space, the interior designer must manipulate the light and control its properties such as direction, intensity, shape, distribution, color, smoothness, and movement across the space to create and configure the lighting environment.

in order to control these characteristics, it is vital to keep pace with modern lighting technologies and their impact on the physical environment, and thus the interior designer is fully responsible to ensure that every modification made to these characteristics is a visual and conceptual choice and not just a random reaction to the need for lighting.

the research aims to emphasize the relationship between lighting and its direction scientifically and clarify this relationship to employ it in a functional and aesthetic manner, appropriate to the nature and use of the space, and explore the latest lighting technology in determining the direction of lighting.

this research employed an analytical descriptive approach using visual ethnography supported by an experimental approach through the researcher's practice of lighting design and documenting it using visual images.

this research resulted in the five basic directions of lighting within the interior environment ; top lighting, front lighting, side lighting, up-lighting lighting, and multi-directional lighting.

the recommendations made in this research should be considered to improve lighting design practices to support the functional and aesthetic performance in the designed space.
