Abstract

In today's life, lighting design has become a very important part of the indoor environment, affecting not only the presentation of the design, but also human health. In current lighting designs, there is still a lack of attention to the use of lighting, resulting in visual and health discomfort for occupants. Based on the original light research, this paper analyzes and applies the light to explore the most scientific direction of light use. Analysis of color temperature, light flux, illumination, and other data of lighting types on the market, and investigation of the effect on human perception. The types of lighting should also not be harmful to the eye and safe to use for long periods of time. Reflective materials are another alternative method to reflect natural lighting to the room to bring spaciousness when there is no available natural lighting directly. In the future, there should be experimental lighting that may mimic or replace lighting in nature, or lighting that is fully adapted to the user's senses, emotions, and fatigue. This paper looks forward to finding more appropriate ways to use interior lighting and is dedicated to addressing unreasonable lighting designs in interior design.
