LUMINESCENCE - Design Research

Observation
The first thing I did was observe the affect light has in various situations. Below are some pictures I took that show contrast, low light, direction, color, midday, sunset and nightlight.

Precedent Analysis
Then I looked at designers and websites to get inspiration for my luminaire. Of course Google Images gave me endless ideas.

Context
Next I had to decide if I wanted my luminaire to hang from the ceiling, sit on a table, or attach to the wall.

Materials
Finally, we were required to use three materials and one of them had to be one we used in another project this semester.


Contrast
Low Light
Direction
Color
Midday
Sunset

Nightlight
