Included is information on lamps and light fittings, and their different uses; advice on controls, plus an overview of the pitfalls of dimming and energy saving; and the principles of lighting design, such as understanding light and shadow. There is also a room-by-room analysis of good lighting design, and instructions on how to prepare a lighting plan for contractors.
