Halo Recessed Lighting - Lighting Effects

Nov. 25, 2011 - PRLog -- AMBIENT LIGHTING

Lighting throughout an area which produces general illumination. The appropriate Halo recessed fixtures are available with LED compact fluorescent, incandescent or HID lamps to provide wide patterns of light distribution for this purpose. These units direct light in specific patterns to illuminate areas without drawing attention to the fixtures themselves.

TASK LIGHTING

Lighting directed to a specific area to perform a specific task. Use Halo fixtures with narrower beam patterns and high illumination levels. Task-Ambient Lighting–The combination of task and ambient lighting should provide a level of ambient lighting that is lower than the task yet is designed so the ambient complements the task lighting. Here luminance ratio should be considered. Luminance ratio is the measure
of task or accent to surrounding ambient lighting. For example, retail stores may use 5-to-1 task-to-ambient lighting on cash registers for transactions and 10-to-1 accent-to-ambient lighting on displays to draw maximum attention to the products.

WALL WASHING

Lighting of vertical surfaces defines form, space and texture. It can visually increase the apparent size of a room while improving visual comfort. Halo has skillfully engineered fixtures designed to direct a broad spread of uniform illumination on these surfaces. LED, Incandescent, compact fluorescent or high intensity discharge sources can be used based on the size of the space, the level of illumination and intensity desired, energy efficiency and controllability.

ACCENT LIGHTING

Directional lighting used to focus attention on a particular object or surface. Its intensity levels vary according to ambient illumination levels. Higher ambient levels require higher accent illumination to provide the necessary contrast (luminance ratio). This requires adjustable fixtures which can deliver higher illumination levels and precise beam distributions. Halo has the products to fit these specifications. Halo adjustable trims are most often used in accent lighting. Incandescent and tungsten halogen R and PAR lamps; low voltage MR16, GU-10, PAR36 and PAR Metal Halide lamps offer the range of intensities and beam spreads necessary for controlled quality lighting.
