Lighting design is not merely selecting fixtures; it’s enhancing an environment, telling a story, and guiding users through the space. When done by professional designers, lighting influences users to interact with the space and evokes an emotional response. Lighting designers can be challenged by prioritizing a human-centric approach and conceptualizing the entire design vision effectively. Unlike most building materials and finishes, lighting designers cannot provide a tangible swatch to architects and owners for consideration and understanding of design strategies. Therefore, communicating the value of lighting design is crucial to gaining buy-in and overcoming preconceived notions from architects and project stakeholders.

Having over 40 years of design experience, I was blessed by being mentored by some of the early lighting designer's who openly shared their design principles with me. Working directly under Raymond Grenald and volunteering with names like Leslie Wheel, Howard Brandston, Nancy Clanton, Naomi Miller, Randy Burkett and other luminaires, the speaker will share their tips of the trade. For example, decades before the WELL recommendation of lighting the walls, Ray Grenald would stress the importance of vertical illumination of architectural planes. Likewise, Leslie Wheel would toss out lighting awards is a single scallop occurred on a dropped soffit.
