CRITICAL DESIGN ISSUES:
Luminance of Room Surfaces: By lighting room surfaces, the ceremonial
area will feel bright and comfortable. Balance contrast between surfaces
with no brighter, accented surfaces. By keeping ambient lighting low,
accent lighting on a speaker or presentation will be more effective.
Modeling of Faces or Objects: Accent lighting on a speaker should come
from multiple directions to eliminate harsh shadows and render faces or
objects accurately.
Target Horizontal Illuminance ( 10%): 100 lux (10 fc) for ambient lighting.

6-19
