Many people jump into lighting design software without considering the road or street user needs. This webinar will describe considerations the designer needs to accommodate prior to opening the software or situation analysis as it has been referred too, but also review some of the issues that occur in the design process. Changes in the recently released BS5489-1:2020 will also be discussed in a Question and Answer session hosted by LDC Birmingham at the end of the webinar.
This event is a pre-curser to the launch of the ILP online training course ‘Good practice in lighting design’ and follows on from the previous BS5489 launch webinar in June of this year. The course will be available from the ILP training platform soon, with discounts for ILP members. It should be noted, this will not be a software training course that Nick usually delivers.

The effects of artificial lighting on landscape character and visual amenity: Assessment and interdisciplinary working
‘Landscape character’ is intrinsically linked to a variety of aspects including visibility (views), ecology, heritage and lighting. Assessment of effects (e.g. of development) on landscape character and visual amenity regularly forms a chapter of an Environmental Statement (i.e. an Environmental Impact Assessment) as a ‘Landscape and Visual Impact Assessment’ (LVIA), and are most often assessed for the daytime, with other times of the day often overlooked. Landscape character of a location immediately after dusk, during the night and immediately prior to dawn are recognised as being different to, but as important as, that described during the daytime, and accordingly the process LVIA of is evolving. The process of iterative design, and assessment of environmental effects (including those on humans), is becoming an increasingly multi-disciplinary task, and requires a common understanding and multi-functional solutions.
This webinar aims to provide a sound basis to help further the effectiveness of lighting professionals working in partnership with landscape (and other environmental) professionals on their designs and assessment areas in an informed and co-ordinated way.
