Light is at my will. We long to manipulate light as we please, and to create countless unimaginable miracles like a magician. In ancient times, Kuafu chased the sun to retain the sun, and now the city is shining at night. The landscape lights created by Jin Guangmang have shifted from satisfying the most basic need of "illuminating" to the pursuit of light and shadow art. The progress of lighting technology and scientific and technological concepts has allowed us to see more creativity and possibilities of light and shadow.
Lights have accompanied humans through countless long nights. Today, they have gradually entered the field of environmental art and become an important factor in creating, embellishing and enriching the environment. Today's landscape lighting, in addition to creating a bright environment to meet people's night travel activities, is more important to make it perfectly combined with the garden landscape to create another side of the garden scenery. So, what design principles should be followed in the design of garden landscape lighting?
The design of garden landscape lighting should have a focus, with clear priorities, and it cannot be bright all the time or colorful all the time. This will not only fail to beautify the night view of the garden, but also cause waste of resources and light pollution. In planning and design, it is necessary to reasonably increase the brightness of some areas through primary and secondary logic and virtual and real contrast, and set off the surrounding with soft light, so as to highlight the theme of the garden.
All along, no matter what kind of design is for people, the garden landscape lighting design should be the same. Too bright lighting will affect people's mood for leisure and enjoyment at night, especially for gardens close to residential areas. Its design should form a harmonious pace with the surrounding environment, starting from the perspective of residents' living comfort, adapting to people's daily living habits, and not blindly pursuing beauty and artistic modeling and ignoring the impact on people's daily life.
Lighting is the brocade of the night, and artistic lighting design is the icing on the cake. Light art can enrich people's visual experience and enhance the night environment. Therefore, the design cannot be stereotyped. It must be integrated with certain culture and art. Whether in shape, color or technology, it must be ingenious, and various forms must be combined with each other to show art in functional technology.
In order to improve the quality of the landscape and create a unique night garden landscape, on the premise of meeting the above requirements, lamps with beautiful shapes and soft colors are usually selected in the design process to make them blend into the surrounding scenery. The main content includes making the roads, venues, waterscapes, plants, sculptures and buildings in the scenic area obtain good visual effects according to visual requirements.
Garden landscape lighting design is an important means to adjust the atmosphere and beautify the environment. In the process of lighting design, in addition to connecting lines with lights according to the outline of the courtyard, and then using lines to lead the surface, and using lighting layout to outline the beauty of the courtyard, it is generally necessary to focus on the following areas:
Waterscape is generally the finishing touch of the courtyard, occupying the best viewing location in the courtyard. The lighting design should activate its visual effect with flowing and flashing lights, and implant music with the sound of water flow to create a dreamy space scene.
Steps bear the dual attributes of functional and artistic lighting in the courtyard lighting design. There are many forms and layout methods of step lights. Step lights can be embedded in the side wall, or in the side or facade of the steps, so that they can illuminate the steps for easy walking while setting off the atmosphere of the courtyard.
The image of rockery and sculptures at night is often hard and cold, but good lighting design can make this coldness glow with a different brilliance. The embellishment and rendering of appropriate lighting bring a strong contrast effect, and the rocks instantly evolve into the logo of the courtyard.
Taking advantage of the growth situation of plants, installing decorative lights of different sizes, let the lights illuminate the beautifully shaped flowers, plants and trees, and present a completely different posture under natural light. Not only can small trees and shrubs bloom differently at night, but also create beautiful scenery for the garden at night. Through the contrast of light and dark, it highlights the most ornamental landscape and catches people's attention.
If the garden landscape is a beautiful face, then the lights are undoubtedly the bright eyes. When the night falls slowly, the lights are not a reproduction of the daytime scene, but a secondary shaping of the night space form of the landscape. The landscape lights have good lighting functions and are highly ornamental. Their unique artistic creativity creates a higher artistic conception for the landscape, which makes people bright and becomes a "star" in the night sky.
