ARCHITECTURAL LIGHTING DESIGN

​

SCHEMATIC LIGHTING DESIGN

 Before starting any design whether it be commercial, we listen to our clients for a clear understanding of the project’s scope,

the vision of the spaces, and how they will be utilized. A discussion of conceptual design, planning, and lighting design intent,

architectural elements, and architectural materials will help sync our vision with yours. 

​

LIGHTING DESIGN DEVELOPMENT

Upon approval of the schematic design, we move into the design development phase. We will create lighting plans making

revisions as needed throughout; run initial light level calculations as needed to ensure illuminance and contrast are as expected;

create fixture schedules and specifications; produce drawings and cut-sheet packages; and confirm lighting design loads meet applicable energy code requirements.

​

LIGHTING CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS

Here we refine all design deliverables, so they are suitable for construction. We produce a variety of construction documents:

• Provide dimensions for all fixtures on plans

• Prepare architectural lighting intent details that illustrate the integration of light fixtures into the various architectural elements.

• Finalize the lighting fixture schedule for product acquisition

• Lighting control (load) schedule for fixture circuiting and controls

• Finalize the corresponding light fixture cut sheet package to aid in the understanding of individual fixtures and components

 

CONSTRUCTION ADMINISTRATION

Many feel that their work is done once the lighting design documents are handed off to the client and construction crew, we pride

ourselves on being accessible to answer questions from the field, and making site visits as needed to help resolve conflicts or changes.

We are also involved in coordinating with factories and vendors to assist with lighting fixture issues and/or lead times. 

Lighting Aiming & Adjustment Once the project is substantially complete, we are on-site to aim for adjustable fixtures, set and fine-tune light levels, and assist with scene programming.
