Use Lighting To Create An Atmospheric Tea Table

Everyone has a different understanding of drinking tea. But what is certain is that everyone hopes that the place to drink tea is pleasant and relaxing, warm as home, a little bright, but not too bright, an ordinary tea house can have a different feeling. How does the led soft light strip create this warm and personalized light environment? The lighting affects the aesthetics of the space. The atmosphere of the wooden furniture design changes with the color and configuration of the lighting. Only a roll of soft light strips can decorate the surroundings, and then meet a few friends and have tea together.

The essence of the three-step get interior lighting design is no longer a lighting design novice!

The taste of darkness, I know, is at the bottom of a bleak and desolate road;

Suddenly saw a window, lit up with a warm light,

That is my window, my lamp, my warmth.

What Is Home?

Is a warm harbor,
Is a little soft fluorescence,
Wait for the tired bird to come home.

What's Feeling Your Home?

Thousands of lights in the city late at night,
If there is always a light left for you,
Or there is always a warm home,
At that moment,
Does it make you feel good to go home?

Talk about lighting.

A few years ago, I wonder if you have seen an interesting advertisement.
Philips did a lighting experiment on the streets of South Korea.
On the side of the crowded square, they temporarily set up a room and prepared two sets of lighting schemes.

room

The space layout is exactly the same, but it gives a very different feeling.
Looking at the details, the experimenter used two plans to let passers-by walk into the two houses and express their feelings in the two spaces:

The first set:

It looks ordinary, and it feels like being at home.

The second set:

Coordinated, pleasant and cute, with a high-end, clean image

Very warm, comfortable feeling, this feeling is too good

compare the room with different lighting

After a round of interviews, the answers summarized by passers-by about the occupants of the house are as follows: The first set: There is no professionally designed pale white monotonous lighting room, (being) living a 42-year-old, two-point one-line, ordinary company staff who has no story; The second set: After professional lighting design, carefully lighting, a room that looks quite high-end, (being) lived a 35-year-old, friendly and aesthetically good fashion designer. Obviously it is the furnishings in the same room, but in people's subjective impression, the value is 15 times worse on average. (The valuation of passers-by is also very willful and casual!)

Regardless of the subjective evaluation of passers-by and how much exaggeration there is for the effect of advertising, with the two screenshots in the video and life experience, we can also feel more or less:
Life requires quality;
Lighting is very important.

01. Indispensable lights

For interior design, lighting not only plays the role of “illuminating the space”, it is the soul of the space, equivalent to the catalyst of the entire space, so that the space presents a sense of visual hierarchy and can create different artistic atmospheres. Make the indoor environment extremely comfortable.

In short, lighting has the functions of lighting, decoration, creating atmosphere, focusing and guiding.

No matter how good the space is, it also needs light to activate, whether it is color, material or volume, it needs light to illuminate and present.
Good lighting design is not only lighting, it is simple and contagious, just like a meticulous artwork, fully mastering all lighting effects, can clearly express the nature of the building, increase space design features, and add value to the overall design.

If the color of the background wall lamp belt is darker on the top wall or a specific material is used for outstanding performance, use white light, which is brighter on the one hand, and has a better performance effect on the surface material on the other hand. If you want to emphasize the atmosphere, or don't want to be too bright, use warm light.Yiford provides you with a reference for the color temperature of the light. In general, we recommend using a warm white light of about 3500K for the light in the general home, so that the lighting environment is warm and protects the eyes, and it will not affect the color of other decorative surfaces. (About 4000K is neutral light, 6000K is positive white light). The restaurant can use 3000K lights, which can make food shiny and more appetizing;

02. The essence of lighting design

interior lighting design 19

Designers must consier lighting design issues

Almost all designers will consider lighting design issues in the middle and late stages of the project. So what is the essence of lighting design? What needs to be controlled?

Take home lighting design as an example.
It can be summarized as the following three points:

1. What to illuminate-research needs
2. How to illuminate-master the method
3. What to use to illuminate-use light selection

The three of them are also interlinked, one is indispensable.

1.What to illuminate

What you take is usually determined by the purpose of the space, such as the living room, bedroom, and dining room, which are different. Therefore, we need to understand the owner’s functional conception and expectations for each home space.
 
Step 1: home space analysis
►Functional requirements: what kind of activities people do in the space;
►Architectural characteristics: which things are worth highlighting;
►Visual tasks: what visual tasks people need to complete in the space;
► Object decoration: What do you want people to see most;
► Furniture location: where people will sit or stand;
►Mood and feeling: What kind of atmosphere do people desire and do they need to change;
►Design style: There is something that lighting should match.

Step 2: Set priority

What is most important in a space? It is necessary to give the space a visual focus that can catch people’s attention. In the dining room or living room, it may be a table, a painting, or a vase and a fireplace.

Of course, in a space, there may be multiple lighting targets that need to be prioritized at the same time, and these targets need to consider task lighting and accent lighting. For example, the wooden pier in the living room in the picture is the accent lighting, and the porch is the task lighting.

Step 3: Consider the space as a whole

Washing and brightening the walls with light strips and using indirect light sources to outline the lighting method of the ceiling can make the space look more open;

The soft light hidden around the furniture creates an intimate atmosphere;
Focusing on a small piece of carpet may make the space feel warmer and more comfortable, but when the light is projected directly onto very smooth surfaces, such as glass table tops and marble floors, it may cause uncomfortable glare.

2. How to illuminate

After analyzing the space and the desired effect, three basic lighting methods can be used for lighting design.

①Ambient lighting-basic lighting

Basic lighting means that people can easily and safely move in the space, show the characteristics of the space, make the space look bigger, and make the space more comfortable by balancing the brightness of the surface of the space.

The down-illuminated basic lighting that illuminates the objects and surfaces in the lower space can create a feeling of warmth and intimacy, while the indirect lighting that illuminates the ceiling and walls makes the space look more rational, quiet, and spacious.

The bedroom uses light strips to indirectly illuminate the ceiling and walls, making the space look quieter and more spacious.

The wall lamp belt is simple and fashionable, and has a three-dimensional and virtual sense. It can collide with rounded curves or interesting geometric shapes to bring full vitality to the space.

②Key lighting-illuminate special areas

light your art work.

lighting for art

If it is in a space, all lights are equally bright. What will happen at this time? There will be a situation where Liushen has no master. You don’t know where to look, or where you want to look. If you go to a place, it is obvious that a picture is particularly bright, or a flower is particularly bright, you will feel very comfortable all at once.

Therefore, key lighting shapes the soul of the space, creates a visual focus, attracts the eye, and directly draws the attention of the space.

For example, the lighting on the washbasin in the bathroom, because there are mirrors, this area is generally used for accent lighting, but there is often a problem, as shown in the figure:

interior lighting design 39

Lighting for Mirror makes

∆Lights from overhead and lights from the front The lighting effect from the front pavement is better than that from overhead, because the light from the front pavement makes the expression of the face very integral, and the light from the overhead will make the protruding parts of the face very bright and recessed. Very dark, the contrast between light and dark is too strong;

Therefore, the toilet in the picture adopts the form of no main lamp, and the washbasin uses the wall lamp as the accent lighting to weaken the contrast between light and dark, which can make the expression of the face when looking in the mirror is very overall, and has a certain beautification effect.

③Task lighting-illuminate the working surface

When a person is reading a book or writing a series of tasks, it is necessary to have sufficient diffused light hitting the work surface from the shoulder or side.
Therefore, according to the reading habits of the owner of the room, the designer used the chandelier as work lighting and installed it on the bedside. The angle of the chandelier was adjusted according to the reading posture of the owner;

Key element for how to light

When determining "how to light", a key element is to control the position of the lamps, which is particularly important when avoiding glare and light curtain reflections. as the picture shows:

interior lighting design 43

Buffing near the wall and washing wall a little further in front

At the same time, this is also the decisive factor that emphasizes or weakens the surface texture of the object. When the lamp is very close to the wall, the light is very likely to expose the flaws of the wall or the illuminated object. And in this case, glancing is easier to highlight flaws than washing walls, as shown in the figure below.

3. What kind of lighting

What kind of lighting is used is to choose the most suitable light source, lighting method and control method for each space of the project.

①The main considerations when choosing a light source:

Light distribution requirements

Color rendering

Color temperature

Maintenance costs

The light distribution is not only related to the light source, but also related to the luminaire, because the luminaire is not only the light source installation base, but also redistributes the light emitted by the light source to accurately illuminate the target area and shield the light source to avoid glare.

②How bright light is needed?

How bright light is needed to achieve good visual conditions depends on:
1. The age of the user;
2. The reflexivity of visual targets;
The elderly need higher brightness (65-year-olds need twice the brightness of 20-year-olds) and are more sensitive to glare. Therefore, for places where users are elderly, not only sufficient light is needed, but also To control the glare.
