Lighting design is very much a matter of cause and effect. By understanding the role that fittings play and the consequences of their position it is possible to minimise adverse effects on quite normal standards of workmanship.
When specifiers, builders and home owners are considering the type of finish they require from plasterboard, it is important to understand how the overall appearance is likely to be affected by glancing light and the choice of decoration.
Although a flat finish is the common requirement this is not always possible with present building technology. No matter how flat a surface may appear, there are always undulations and deviations from flatness. What is possible is the appearance of flatness, though this is dependent on the level of finish and the way the lining is perceived.LIGHTING VARIATIONS AND CONDITIONS
Where possible ceiling and wall joints should run in the direction of the light source e.g. at right angles to windows or large openings. Avoid butt joints wherever possible.
Finished joints are subjected to a variety of lighting conditions. Light intensities are constantly changing throughout the day, depending on the position of the sun, sky conditions, window, door or the location of light source, reflections from surrounding buildings, ground etc, subjecting the ceilings to diffused light from all directions.
At night, the intensity varies again.
Glancing light is the light that shines obliquely across the surface of the wall or ceiling. The worst instances of glancing light occur with single unshaded light bulbs fixed directly to the ceilings or walls or in rooms with windows up to ceiling level or windows adjacent to walls.
Because of the angle of the light, illumination of one side of the most minute undulation creates a shadow on the other side. This highlights perceived imperfections or the different light reflection characteristics of surface texture variations (joints, patches) which under more diffused light would not be visible.
NATURAL GLANCING LIGHT
The best way to present circumstances that accentuate glancing light effect is by illustrating common conditions. Windows that extend up to (or close to) the corner of the room, allow natural light to fall upon the side wall at a very shallow angle. The angle of light will, vary during the day.
Accordingly, the plasterboard joint will be more apparent at certain times.
A similar situation to that described above occurs with windows that extend to the ceiling surface. Obviously, dawn or dusk will produce the most pronounced 'glancing light' but reflection from an outside surface can extend the duration of the effect considerably.
Another situation is a raked ceiling coupled with high level windows facing critical light or louvered windows. In this case, the problem is invariably complicated by reflections from adjacent roof surfaces.
REMEDIAL MEASURES
Where the physical circumstance producing glancing light effect already exists, the situation can be improved by appropriate soft furnishings, pelmets, curtaining, blinds or redecorating with light matt finishes. |
