Light architecture: a new direction in design activities (review of dissertational research)
Abstract: A new direction is rapidly developing in the field of architecture, that of the perception of volumetric and spatial environment under artificial light at night. It has been inspired by the scientific and technological progress, deep social transformations, and changes in traditional habits of the urban population. The previous artistic forming standards based on visual perception of the solar ambient luminescence have proved to be insufficient. A person, when in the dark, perceives visually the space and environing things otherwise than during the day. The experience in creating architectural and artistic environment of a night city accumulated in half a century requires an analytical assessment with a view to provide methodological support for design activities.
Key words: light architecture, artificial light, visual perception, architectural tectonics, city light panorama.
