Sketch Series 3

the variation in the fabrics from the retail/grocery/residence/ and library was quite dramatic. the lighting seemed yellow in some stores but blue in others. the library had the most natural light in which gave the fabrics the best appearance. overall it was a interesting exercise.

light Series 2

The photos taken are from the stone building/ art museum/ restaurant/ retail store. Retail store: There is track , fluorescent, cove and pendent lighting. Some of the track lighting causes a glare on the point of purchase advertisements as well as shadows. The overall lighting quality was good, but some glare was created which may loose the effectiveness of their advertisements. Museum: There was track and natural light as well as wall washing. Some of the track lighting created bubbles of light on the soffits within the space. The lighting allowed the artwork to encompass the focus of the room, but the contrast of the dark and lighted areas of the wall was somewhat distracting. Stone Building: There was pendent, recessed, and natural light within the space. The pendent lighting was directed towards the ceiling and creates an awkward spotlight on the ceiling. The natural light created a reflected glare on the polished floor and the recessed lights also created an awkward spotlight on the drawings. I would lower the pendent light so that it wouldn't create an spotlight on the ceiling, deepen the the display units so that the lighting was appropriate and possibly use some sort of shade system so that the natural light wouldn't create a glare on the polished floor. Restaurant: There was twinkle, pendent, fluorescent, and tv lighting. The bar had a granite counter top which reflected all of the lighting listed above. There was very little ambient light throughout the space and there is a glass facade that also created a discomfort glare. The overall lighting and fixtures was pleasing, but the reflection that the lighting created on the granite bar and glass facade caused discomfort in the restaurant.

Lighting Sketch Series

these are the photos to go along with the sketches.
again 1.19/2.2/2.16/3.2/3.16/3.30/4.13/4.27--from bottom to top respectively. The sketch series has changed each time I go back to my spot, it's exciting to see what the outcome will be when i take the photo. Each week the lighting has moved across the EUC hallway. However the activity has remained the same throughout the weeks, I believe this is because the hallway is attached to the library which will always be used throughout the school year.

The Light Box Poster

The poster was designed to demonstrate colored shadow and white light. It was fun to design, because we felt that we were doing something other than "just" putting our light box pictures on the poster.

The Light Box!

The light box was successful. The colored shadows were elegant yet dynamic.

This a showroom is really unique because of it's shape and lighting effects. The company FUA sells blinds in each of the display cases. I have been to showrooms before and they all look the same, but this one is very enticing and the lighting quality seems sufficient for advertising purposes.

Light Box Sketch

This was my initial sketch of the light box, but once I spoke with my group mates the intent changed from direction of light to light and shadow. All in all the study was interesting and it provided many ideas of what to do when designing a space.
