Lighting 4.05 Light • Can emphasize the best features of a room • Effects the way a room can be used. Inadequate light causes eye strain, affect comfort levels, and result in accidents. • ____________________is very efficient, blends well with sunlight, and makes most colors look good, less flattering to skin tones • ______________ is efficient but NOT flattering to many colors, flattering to skin tones Purposes of lighting • ______________lighting: also known as background or ambient lighting. Provides just enough light so everything in the room can be seen. Softens the shadows and harsh contrasts caused by other lighting sources. EX: ______________in any room Chandelier in dining room Ceiling fan with light Types, continued • ________________: light that shines on specific areas • _________________: reflected off ceilings and walls. More diffused and softer • _________lighting: focuses light on an area where it is needed most. To provide the best task light, shades should shaped so that light is directed downward EX: Desk lamp illuminates a desk top. Light above a range or kitchen island Light on sewing machine Types, continued • _____________lighting: aimed directly on a specific object to create a dramatic effect. For the most dramatic effect, the accent lighting should be at least 3 times brighter than general lighting. EX: Light___________________________ Lights in a china cabinet TYPES OF BULBS LED Incandescent Florescent Mercury Vapor Halide Halogen Incandescent Bulbs • Light produced by electricity passing through a tungsten filament in a glass bulb. • This light tends to be__________ • ____________________. • Bulbs are available in variety of shapes and can be clear or frosted • Frosted bulbs reduce glare and give a soft light Incandescent bulbs (con’t) • Small clear bulbs, used in chandeliers, give a sparkling effect. • Available in 15 to 300 watts • Used in____________________________ • __________________________________ Halogen Bulbs • Special type of incandescent bulb • Filled with pressurized halogen gas, which makes it____________________________ • Usually smaller than a regular bulb, produces a__________________________ • More expensive but last longer • Can become very hot (1000F), can cause burns Fluorescent Bulbs • Light that is produced when chemicals inside a sealed glass transform ultra-violet rays • Produce various color casts • Usually are long straight tubes, but can also be circular and U-shaped • Can produce up to____________________ • ___________________________________ Fluorescent (cont’d) • Look for the new compact fluorescent bulbs (CFL) • These______________________________ • Cost more but last longer • Cannot be used with dimmer switches or electronic timers Light Emitting Diodes LED • This diode is a _______________about the size of a grain of salt and made of crystals. • An LED bulb _____________________ • _________________________________ • (10x longer than CFL, 133x longer than a regular bulb) • Considered to be the next major evolution in lighting. • Just starting in residential use Fiber Optics • Fiber optic lights are being used primarily in museums and for displays because they ______________and no ultraviolet light • Light flows through the __________ and is focused at the end Structural Lighting • This is_____________________________ • Fixtures and wiring are hidden from view. EX: wall washers soffit lighting strip lighting down-lights valence lighting cove lighting cornice lighting luminous ceiling panels Structures • __________________: recessed ceiling lights that spread light over a wall from ceiling to floor. • ________________: light source (usually a fluorescent tube) mounted over a window and hidden by a window valence. Shines light both upward and downward • ______________: consist of a row of incandescent bulbs around top or sides of mirror in baths • ___________________: plastic panels covering fluorescent tubes. May cover all or part of ceiling, provides general light More structural • _________________: mounted near the junction of wall and ceiling and directs light downward. Used to highlight wall hangings • ___________________: concealed light source that directs light upward toward the ceiling. Gives appearance of added height • ____________________: direct a beam of light from ceiling downward. Can be accent or general lighting. Flush with ceiling More structural • ______________: light enclosed in box-like structure that directs light downward. Usually a plastic panel diffuses the light, often used over kitchen and bathroom sinks Non-structural Lighting • Consists of _________________________ • or replaced….various ceiling and wall fixtures as well as portable lamps. • Consider track lighting, wall sconce, chandeliers, hanging pendants, lamps of all types and sizes. • Can use all types of bulbs. Lighting for Safety • Prevents accidents that occur in dim light or darkness • Make sure all fixtures have ______________that shows that fixture meets safety guidelines. • Make sure ALL wiring meets local and state electrical safety codes • ___________________________________Can overload circuit and blow fuses or start fires in worst case Safety Issue in Lighting • • • • Are there ________________________ Light at entrance of home Light switch at top & bottom of stairs Are there controls for garage/carport lighting from inside the house • Can you control outside lighting from inside the house
