Designing With Light - Retail Spaces - Turner Janette

. .

Résumé :
This book looks at a range of lighting solutions for different retail situations, from a fashion store in an 18th-century Paris street to the largest retail complex in Europe, from arcades in Argentina to malls in Hong Kong, from a whisky shop in Scotland to a casino shop in Las Vegas. Specially created icons help the reader understand the lighting used in these case studies, together with comments from the designers themselves. A full technical introduction to lighting is also included, along with a glossary of lighting terms. This book s designed to help architects and interior designers, store managers and design directors to understand the potential of retail lighting, and use the solutions to create that ambience of desire that is at the heart of retail success.
