“Lighting means the visibility verification of the light source to an object or casting light to a particular environment.” Lighting, in a short definition, is “to implement light in order to be able to maintain the vision of the objects and environment properly.”

 

“Lighting Design means the illumination of the buildings or places by using the lighting techniques and rules, science, art, events, preferences and previous experiences.” Lighting Design, in a short definition, is “art and science of environmental luminance of human.”

 

Lighting Designer is the person who presents the needs of the location users (physical and emotional comfort, flexibility, ambiance, functionality, feel safe, etc.), selects the most appropriate energy efficient and economical product (energy saving, long life, minimal use of materials, user friendly product selection ), generates innovative lighting solutions by  combining function and aesthetics, resolves the pending lighting problems for indoor and outdoor places, creates lighting plans that support and strengthen  the architectural creativity and functionality.”

 

Lighting Designer is the person who minimizes the total cost,  presents an objective design solution to maintain the best possible energy saving and also the best possible visual and thermal performance in the structural and aesthetic constraints, makes a good analysis to take advantage of the daylight as much as possible to ensure energy efficiency and combines the designs with the lighting control. The most important issue to note is that, “Lighting saving is done without lighting or with insufficient lighting! However, energy saving is not done! “
