Principles of Light 2


PGLT 5101 | Spring 2012 | Faculty: Craig Bernecker

This course continues the technical examination of natural and electrical lighting factors but introduces human factors; human physiology and physiology responses to qualitative and quantitative aspects of light and space. The need to control the quality and quantity of light has profoundly affected the organization of architecture and public space. Students develop an understanding of how human beings react to and interact within light by exploring contemporary theories of perceptual, somatic, and aesthetic responses to light.
