CRITICAL DESIGN ISSUES:
Direct Glare: Select luminaires to prevent direct glare. Luminaires may use
lenses or louvers to shield any view of the lamp. Decorative, glowing
luminaires should use low wattage lamps.
Reflected Glare: Select and locate luminaires to prevent veiling reflections
on reading material.
