Careful lighting design is indispensable for creating ambiences that are not just livable but warm and comfortable as well. This practical reference gives detailed descriptions of different types of lighting and their characteristics, and presents a wide range of examples that can serve as inspiration for both professionals in the field and readers who are looking for sound and reliable advice.
