Riassunto
Can and in what way light influence people’s evaluation, perception and image of spaces? Do lighting assessments which integrate Lynch’s methodology exist? How can we define lighting assessments which integrate Lynch’s methodology? How can we adapt this light pattern to any space described by Lynch’s categories?
The aim of this research is to understand if light can influence human perception of spaces.
Explore how the distribution of light in spaces affects how spatiality is experienced, how spatial dimensions are received and the atmosphere is experienced. We need to understand spaces in relation to light, and how spaces are shaped by the distribution of light (Wänström Lindh, 2012) through people's choices.
Since every place can be described with Lynch's categories, if we refer light to his methodology we can create a light pattern adaptable to any spaces. So the aim would be to integrate Lynch’s methodology with lighting assessments.
Knowing how people use space can contribute to user-friendly architectural design and spatial planning (Gans, 2002). We need to know more about how the final design will be experienced in a real environment and to gain knowledge about other’s experiences and interpretations.
