Lighting Designers & Lighting Design


A lighting designer is a technical expert with a high degree of lighting equipment product knowledge and advanced training in photometric calculations and software design. Your lighting designer takes the raw data that pertains to your facility and industry type and inputs that data into advanced software platforms. This software then calculates the necessary lighting levels and renders three-dimensional models of the proposed lighting system.

This allows you to actually experience what a new industrial lighting system would offer you before actually buying the equipment. You can then either purchase the design from us or have a local contractor source your equipment. Or, you can buy the equipment from us too and pay your contractor only for the cost of labor. We reimburse you the cost of the photometric if you obtain your industrial lighting fixtures from us.

Look at case history to gauge the experience level of your lighting design consultant. Previous projects and case studies on a website can give you a very clear picture of level of precision and skill when it comes to building turnkey commercial lighting systems for our clients.
 
Since 1985, Residential Landscape Lighting & Design has applied and mastered the art of lighting and design concepts in the following areas:

While universities do not offer a degree in lighting design per se, a good lighting designer should have some type of hands-on or academic training in either electrical design or interior architectural design. Knowledge of building interiors and wiring is very important because it directly correlates to understanding how light will disperse within a particular type of structure.

It is very necessary too that the lighting design specialist be a problem solver by nature. Clients come to specialists like ours because they have problems that need to be solved. The designer must be a solutions finder who can come up with new ideas through in-depth consultation with the client and analysis of facility data.

Software training is the final piece in the lighting designer’s skill set. Design software is complex and requires a high level of expertise to master. The accomplished lighting designer should be able to take an overhead plan of your building, along with an AutoCAD representation of your current lighting system, and therewith generate photometric layouts and models for your consideration.
