Talk About The Relationship Between Interior Lighting And Psychology

      In the decoration design, the light sense space is an important part, generally to match the natural light as well as the interior lighting applications. Indoor light will affect the mood and psychology of people, so decorators must pay attention to the issue of light, the author today focuses on indoor light-sensitive space and human emotions, it is recommended that all decorators should choose the right lighting according to their character and the type of emotions.

Light Sensory Space and Psychoanalysis

      There is an Italian proverb: "Where there is no sun, there must be a doctor." Some experts point out that lower light levels help to relax the mind and body, while bright light energizes people. Through the change of light, human physiology and psychology are stimulated to different degrees. Light-sensitive spaces have an important impact on mood creation. Different colors present different emotional responses at different light intensities, and people's sensitivity to color can have different emotional responses depending on the light intensity at their stage of growth. For example, people who grew up in Northern Europe, where there is a lack of sunlight in their lives, are made to feel happy by pastel colors. The role of light is evident when creating a happy emotional space. The sunlight rate in the western United States and Florida is as high as 80%, so people prefer warm colors such as red, orange and yellow.

Common types of light in interior Spaces

      There are many different types of light in the interior space, the most common is ultraviolet light, which is directly ingested by the sun, which is a stimulating light and shadow. This light gives a sense of mystery, as if entering a secret space of coercion. In addition to the introduction of natural light, we can also use projectors and magnesium lamps to create the magic effect of ultraviolet light. The awakening light is suitable for creating quiet mood, and the space orientation of yarn and sunshine infiltration comes in. Besides, there is the relatively soft awakening light, which is soft, natural and zen. Hiroshi Inomura of Kobe University in Japan has found that when light passes through the eyes, the brain cells give an order to wake up at dawn. Awakening light uses concentrated light to create an atmosphere of mystery and attention and to inspire a happy mood.

      In addition, the common light source is fun light, this light is full of interest, special, pleasant, fun light comes from creativity, some special occasions to use such light, the use of light to describe the plot. Backward light makes people feel that it is waiting in silence, backward light always reminds people of a kind of silent care, as if there is a person who keeps his own. And decorative light represents comparison, pleasure. Decorative light is used the concept of back light, build water overflow waves or early rainbow ice pellets are various sensory experience, can calm mood of entrants, let a person feel happy. Reading light represents quiet company, such light has the function of company, easy to read quietly, at the same time will not feel visual fatigue.

Design and application of interior light-sensitive space

      Light is everywhere and affects us all the time. On rainy days, we like to read and sleep lazily in the sofa or bed, and when the sun is shining, we like to run on the playground. The following introduces the design and application method of light sensing space, to give you a reference decorator:

1. Improve efficiency and avoid light exhaustion

      This is a big principle in interior lighting design. Studies have shown that 700 lux can wake people up from sleep, and 100 lux is more likely to induce fatigue than 300 lux. In the working area, it is customary to use white fluorescent lamps for lighting, and at home, it is customary to use warm incandescent lamps, because it makes people feel comfortable. People like to work and study in the sun, which helps to improve work efficiency and have a good mood at the same time.

2. Clever use of natural light

      In order to create a happy emotional space, enough daylight is very important. The vitamin D produced by sunlight can create a happy factor, creating a happy mood space. You will find that pleasure is layered, "UP" is high, and we want just the right state of comfort, without laser and artificial light to prick the senses and the skin for fatigue consumption. Such a happy emotional space has a strong restorative effect and brings people energy. In addition to the sunlight, people like the mottled light and shadow under the trees in summer very much, which forms a strong contrast with the strong sunlight. It can create a space of Zen mood, which reminds people of the atrium or patio space in the building. Perhaps only one meter of sunlight in the afternoon makes such happiness and Zen peace so valuable.

3. Cold white light is stressful

      If you want to use artificial light to create a happy emotional space, then you can choose warm white light, which is full of happy energy of the light source, let enter the people feel physically and mentally happy, keep a good mood. Cold white lighting is stressful compared to full-spectrum lighting and is not suitable for happy emotional Spaces. It is also best to avoid this type of lighting in your room. What is more interesting is that the coexistence of cool and warm lights can generate happy emotions in people's heart. Perhaps the alternate use of different lighting can provide more design schemes for the creation of happy emotional space.

4. Design Zen emotional space

      Compared with the lighting space of 1500 lux, the dark space of 150 lux makes people want to calm down, get creativity and original energy, which may be suitable for the design of Zen quiet space. Light reflection from nature, such as soil, air, water, plants, etc. causes a low degree of muscle tension to light, which is very relaxing. In the quiet emotional space, more natural plants can be placed and original ecological elements such as logs can be added, because there are not only emotional forces of material itself, but also emotional reactions induced by light refraction. In general, the study is the most suitable space for this type of lighting, but this type of lighting can also be used in the bedroom or office.

5. Point light sources are easier to focus on confident emotions

      To create a confident emotional space, add ultraviolet light to the space. Ultraviolet radiation can stimulate the body's internal functions. If a person lacks strength, appropriate ultraviolet radiation can increase strength and create a confident emotional space. Compared to scattered light, point light sources can focus, which is good for creating a confident mood space. For example, in a 10 square meter space, if the hidden light source is used, the space will be loose and relaxed. Using point light sources, on the other hand, allows people to focus and focus more. In addition, 3000K of warm white light is often used in chess and card halls and stockbrokers' offices, which can strengthen the confidence of entrants and make them more adventurous. However, this kind of lighting can only be an auxiliary lighting in indoor lighting, rather than the main lighting. It can be set in the children's room and used when the children are doing homework or studying, to give the children a sense of confidence lighting. Use other lighting after you have finished studying. Long-term use of this light source can easily cause fatigue.

      In addition, it is also worth noting that different architectural decoration materials have different reflectance of light, and these architectural materials will also affect people's perception and emotions. For example, metal materials, with 85% reflectivity, people often have a sense of admiration, surprise. And pine is 61%, giving people a sense of meditation, quiet. With the same trees, only 53% of the cypress, giving people a quiet, calm feeling. The concrete has a reflectivity of 55%, giving it an empty, secluded feeling. Most plants have very low reflectivity, only about 25%, giving people a feeling of ease and pleasure. If you want to create a secluded space, use a variety of plants and pine for decoration.
