Lighting spaces, de Roger Yee

Je viens de découvrir ce livre, Lighting spaces, de Roger Yee. Je reprends la description Amazon US pour l’instant. Quand je l’aurai ramené de mon séjour New-Yorkais, j’aurai un avis, mais ça sent déjà le bon livre… 😉

Lighting is an integral component of interior design and architecture. The keys to creating exceptional luminous environments is revealed in Lighting Spaces. Thirty of the world’s top lighting designers and consultants showcase their finest accomplishments in this volume.

The selected examples illustrate how high quality, thoughtful design can be the visual cornerstone of a successful project. In over 500 beautifully-reproduced photographs you will see how light can establish moods and manipulate attitudes, reinforce feelings and heighten excitement.

A full range of high quality, inventive and brilliant lighting design projects are shown including hotels, restaurants, retail, corporate, public, residential, exteriors, houses of worship, performing arts and entertainment facilities, museums, landscape. . . and so much more. Lighting Spaces is a « must-have » title for anyone seeking innovative and imaginative solutions to their architectural lighting problems.
