A lighting revolution is underway. With new tools and
technologies at our disposal, never before have there been so many ways to realise
the transformative effects of light. However, without the right guidance it’s
easy (and costly) to make mistakes, limiting the functionality, mood,
aesthetics and flow of your home.
By combining practical insight and visual flair, Inspired by
Light delivers up-to-date information on the latest and emerging lighting
technologies in a single volume. Lighting solutions and schemes are showcased
in a variety of settings, from a traditional terraced house to a contemporary
villa, and beyond. As well as outlining the key principles and practices of
successful lighting, the book draws on global examples to demonstrate lighting
challenges and solutions – from front door to swimming pool – with case studies
of entire homes to show how lighting effects can come together in a single
project.
Lavishly illustrated throughout, stunning photography is
underpinned by lighting plans, sections and details. This book will appeal to
the visual language of the architect, interior designer and lighting designer,
and to anyone who wants to harness the powers of light to transform their
space.
