What are the basic principles of square lighting design?
With the continuous enrichment and improvement of evening activities in the city, the construction of squares has become more frequent. So, what are the basic principles of square lighting design? Below, the editor from Oulang Lighting Company will explain in detail the specifications and principles of lighting design for different squares.
1. The basic requirement for satisfactory lighting is to leave sufficient space. In many squares, gathering squares not only need a special cultural background or unique buildings to become the "window" of the city, but also often host various public activities, including concerts, performances, speeches, etc. The lighting requirements for these activities vary, so the principle for selecting lighting specifications is to aim low rather than high, but there should be room to provide conditions for "increasing capacity" or "expanding capacity" for activities with high lighting requirements. In fact, many public activities come with their own lighting equipment, and only need to leave an "interface".
2. The selection of lighting equipment must be consistent with the architectural style of the square. Some square buildings have special commemorative significance and require a solemn and dignified environment, while others are magnificent and grand, requiring an imposing external environment with a "royal" aura. Therefore, the selection and arrangement of lighting equipment must correspond to this, enhancing the "scene" both day and night.
3. Safety first, quality foremost. This is the most basic principle of lighting design. In gathering squares and traffic distribution squares where crowds gather and vehicles intertwine, lighting must become one of the primary safety devices. Additionally, these places often use large lighting equipment, such as liftable high pole lights and large garden lights. The quality of these lighting devices is a guarantee of safety, and it is essential to prevent accidents caused by falling poles, dropping lamp frames, and shattered glass from fixtures.
4. Adhere to the basic principles of lighting. Square lighting, like lighting in other places, has requirements for both quantity and quality. Adhering to the basic principles of lighting is a condition for ensuring the safety, energy efficiency, and control of light pollution in square lighting. Arbitrarily increasing the illuminance standards will lead to increased investment and cause unnecessary negative impacts from lighting.
