In the paper we focus on the problem of large-scale distribution of lighting points. Its solution is constrained by economic issues like power consumption or exploitation costs and, on the other side, by the computational complexity of design process. Multi-agent computational environment combined with graph and hypergraph representations of a problem allow meeting design requirements and objectives and, on the other hand, make the method applicable for large systems for which computational effectiveness is a crucial factor.

The intent of this paper is to illustrate a personas system effective design to aid development of new products. This system would help a design team find and understand the lifestyle of target customers by using personas method in early concept development stage. In order to quickly realize market trends, easily collect customer requirements and readily integrate user opinions, the proposed system is capable of helping experts in different domains concurrently share their ideas in real time and discuss with each other without geographic limitation. In addition, a novel approach is proposed, named as ‘Personas Matrix’, to quantify the requirements which can accelerate the assessment of true needs. Finally, in order to validate the proposed system, a LED (Light-Emitting Diode) project was applied to test the functionality of the approach and the usefulness of the system thus helping the design team refine requirements, simplify requirement gathering, and prompt the assessment.

This paper outlines a research methodology and design strategy aimed at realizing sustainable lighting within (sub)urban multi-functional parks. It does so by detailing the research process, as well as resultant vision and design concepts, for the Delftse Hout (a park in Delft, The Netherlands). This process included formulating value-level design requirements, undertaking a detailed site-study to understand stakeholder needs, and combining these to provide conceptual and practical grounding for the future development of a lighting masterplan. A key – and we argue generalizable – outcome of the process is the development and application of dark acupuncture, a scalable design strategy aimed at strategically-placed interventions of darkness and illumination. The paper thus provides three contributions to sustainable lighting theory and practice: a detailed case study of innovative lighting design research; the refinement of dark acupuncture as a design strategy for nature-inclusive park lighting (which itself can be more broadly applicable to urban lighting policy and design); and, as a practical example of transdisciplinary research into artificial light at night.

Architectural and artistic construction of museum is one of the most complex genres in environment development and design, with its inherent qualities, means of expressiveness, principles of environment and image development, scientific concepts, in the context of historical development, artistic styles and trends. The author of the article considers the artistic lighting design in isolation from the integral dramaturgy of the project to be deeply flawed, and the setting of accent lighting at the final stage Ц to be simple, but not outstanding. Based on extensive hands-on experience in the construction of museum expositions, the author of the article reveals some peculiarities, especially significant to the participants of the lighting system setting for museums and other cultural facilities.

In lighting design, the main concept is to achieve a healthy environment, which addresses energy efficiency, cost, maintenance, and quality. User-friendly lighting systems shall be adopted to architecture and interior architecture. User control over the lighting system is important, by dimming or increasing light output, by changing the colour of the light sets the inner atmosphere and affects user mood. Standards and codes on lighting shall also be evaluated by means of these topics. The paper aims to analyse how the luminous environment is affective on the perceived environment. Hence, a series of experimental studies and recent research will be evaluated in regard to understanding and designing luminous environment.

This paper considers the fundamental problem of artificial lighting in various types and scales of industrial facilities, focusing on exterior lighting design solutions. There is a lack of interest from investors, customers and society in high­quality lighting design for industrial facilities in Russia, which in many cities are very imaginative structures, practically unused in the evening. Architectural lighting of various types of installations is illustrated with photographs. The purpose of the article is to draw attention to the aesthetic value of industrial structures, provided not only by the architectural, but also by a welldesigned lighting solution.
