Park lighting design steps

The park is the main place for people to entertain and relax at night, walk and exercise, so the lighting design is particularly important. In addition, lighting is an important means to shape the night scene of the park, and a good night scene of the park can add luster to the city, so the lighting design plays a pivotal role in the design of the entire park. The task of park lighting design is to reflect the concept of park design by using lamp shape, lighting and lamp arrangement according to the functional characteristics and specific objects of the park. So how should it be designed?
 
1. Determine the lighting method
The illuminance level of the park and the appropriate lighting design method should be determined according to the functional type of the park, the surrounding landscape environment, the theme style and the use of lighting fixtures at night. When the scale of the garden is relatively large and the types of roads in the park are relatively complex, it is extremely important to systematically divide the lighting level and determine the lighting mode of each area to express the lighting order of the garden landscape, enrich the night scene, guide tourists, and save energy.
 
2. Select the lighting source
The color of the lamps and the type of light source are particularly important for the performance of the night scene lighting of the park. Because the park road is close to a variety of plants, the lighting of the street lamps will also play a certain role in the light and shadow performance of the plants. In order to make plants with different colors and plant types display perfectly at night, the color temperature, spectral energy distribution and color rendering of the light source must be comprehensively considered.
In addition, color also has a certain impact on human behavior. In the lighting design, different light colors should be used according to the grade, characteristics and surrounding environment of the park road, so that the overall light color of the park can be combined with warm and cold, and it can also play a role in guiding the direction and guiding tourists.
 
3. Arrange the lighting fixtures
The lighting project of the park is not enough to meet only functional lighting, but also to be artistic. The lamps and lanterns should be selected according to the style of the park. The shape of the lamps and lanterns should be consistent with the theme of the park and the atmosphere of the environment. Do not blindly pursue luxury, otherwise it may cause a feeling of incongruity with the environment. The successful selection of lamps and lanterns can not only play the function of lighting, but also can integrate with other parts of the park and become part of the landscape with proper shape and arrangement.
 
4. Optimize lighting control
Park roads, courtyard water features and flood lighting, the switch time of lights can be controlled by light control, time control, microcomputer time control, microcomputer latitude and longitude controller and other automatic control methods. The main lighting such as roads and platforms should be controlled by multiple branches as needed. In terms of control mode, full night light and midnight light can be adopted. Usually only turn on the lights in the middle of the night, and turn on all-night lights on holidays or when there are many people. It is also necessary to set up branch lines for the lighting lines of various non-main lighting fixtures so that the lights can be switched on and off as needed.
