Outdoor lighting serves multiple objectives including the safety of people at night, but lighting also has unintended impacts collectively described as light pollution. In this course, participants will learn about the impacts of lighting (who, what, and how) and approaches to minimizing it in the design process. Emphasis will be on asking the right questions of clients and applying appropriate design tools for appropriate lighting.
