Blonde & the sight of lighting
It is a necessity, not to say an obligation, that as a manufacturer of fixtures and lamps, you have an understanding of the principles of light and lighting. The impact that artificial lighting has on people is not something to be taken lightly.
Without the understanding of artificial light and the impact it will have when developing lighting fixtures, it is not possible to take responsibility as a manufacturer. As a manufacturer, we strive to produce luminaires that offer our customers (and their users) the opportunity to create person-oriented lighting.
Every time we create a new experience of light, we go through our three basic principles - our keywords. Identifying these keywords for each new fixture is a necessity to create better architecture and life through light.
The 3 basic principles of lighting - According to Blond
Direct lighting . A direct light flow is used to describe and define a space or artifact by using a focused light. The light has a clear direction and defines the space using, for example, a suspended luminaire, a directional table lamp or a spotlight. The direct light flux focuses.
Indirect lighting . Indirect light flows can be very beneficial in certain spaces and can relieve stress on the eyes. The indirect light diffuses gradients (contrasts), which may be necessary to complete the light picture in certain spaces.
Atmospheric light . The atmospheric light is not measurable, nor functional in the traditional sense. It is also not light that can be studied in a textbook, rather the light speaks to our humanity. It's easily forgotten, but is just as important when creating a space for well-being. Atmospheric light is the most elemental and has been with us since the discovery of fire, it reminds us that we are human.
