With the growing trend toward more human-centric designs in the commercial marketplace, Focal Point is providing the architecture and design community a tool to better understand how technology allows the quality of light to be tailored to human preference.
The AIA accredited course, “Advancing Light Quality for Human Preference and Well-Being,” is worth 1.5 Learning Units for Health Safety and Welfare in architecture (LU/HSW). It explores the evolution of light sources and how, over time, gains in light source efficacy have not necessarily translated into gains in light quality. The course also reviews recent studies as they relate to human preference lighting and key metrics used to assess the quality of light sources, including the most recent technical memorandum released by the Illuminating Engineering Society (IES), TM-30-18.
The accredited course is available through The Continuing Architect (TCA) website or at Focal Point’s site here.
