Why do a Lighting Plan?
There are many reasons by a lighting plan is essential for a successful outcome on any project, here are some of them:
- Often a requirement for progressing to RIBA Stage 4 and beyond.
- It will take into account the Lighting Zone and select appropriate lighting levels.
- Can combine a lighting impact assessment to include light pollution, wildlife disturbance mitigation, impact of artificial lighting on the environment.
- It ensures that the lighting levels are correct for the location, balancing the apparently conflicting requirements for human safety and wildlife enhancement.
- The chosen materials can complement the location either by blending into the background or standing out as an architectural feature.
- It will enable the total energy consumption to be calculated to ensure the scheme is environmentally and financially sustainable.
What will a lighting plan show?
They can be configured in different way according to the requirements but these are the essentials:
- Plan showing the layout of the area to be illuminated including the immediate surroundings which could also be affected.
- Lighting product to be specified including manufacturer details.
- Lighting temperature (usually 2000k – 4000k in landscape lighting)
- Lumen output (amount of light emitted)
- Lux levels (amount of light hitting the ground/surfaces)
- Location of cabling, feeder pillars etc.
- Isolines (coloured bands showing the spread of light)
- Lighting zone and notes.
We can also include coloured visuals to give a true indication of the lighting levels after dark.
