Artificial Lighting Design
A COHORT OF SIX (6) STUDENT WILL BE PRESENTED WITH A SPATIAL SELECTION FROM A MYRIAD OF BUILDING TYPOLOGIES, AND TASKED WITH UTILISING THE LUMEN METHOD IN CALCULATING THE APPROPRIATE NUMBER OF LIGHTING FIXTURES NECESSARY FOR THE DESIGNATED AREA. THE PRIMARY LIGHTING CONFIGURATION MUST BE SUPPLEMENTED WITH SUPPLEMENTARY DIAGRAMS SUCH AS FLOOR PLANS, SECTIONS, THE LUMEN METHOD COMPUTATION, AND PROPOSITIONS FOR OTHER TYPES OF LUMINOSITY THAT COULD BE INTEGRATED IN THE DESIGNATED SPACE
THE CHOSEN LOCATION
RESEARCH
AFTER CONDUCTING AN EXTENSIVE SEARCH, WE EVENTUALLY IDENTIFIED A SPACE THAT WAS APPROXIMATELY 10M X 6M AND UPON FURTHER EVALUATION, WE DETERMINED THAT THE GALLERY OF THE BUILDING WAS THE IDEAL LOCATION FOR OUR PROJECT DUE TO ITS SUITABILITY FOR DAYLIGHTING SOLUTIONS. DURING THE INITIAL WEEK OF OUR ENDEAVOUR, WE ENCOUNTERED A NUMBER OF CHALLENGES RELATED TO DAYLIGHTING. YET ULTIMATELY, OUR DILIGENT EFFORTS PAID OFF AND WE WERE ABLE TO SECURE THE PERFECT SPACE FOR THE PROJECT.
THE RESEARCH COMPRISES TASK DELEGATIONS, ISSUES PERTAINING TO THE SPATIAL DOMAIN INVOLVING DAYLIGHTING, AND THE POTENTIAL INTERVENTIONS. ALL OF WHICH ARE ACCOMPANIED BY ILLUSTRATIVE
DIAGRAMS AND TECHNICAL DRAWINGS TO ASSIST IN CONVEYING THE INFORMATION.

OVERALL
ALTOGETHER, OUR VENTURE HAS BEEN A ROLLER COASTER OF TRIUMPHS AND SETBACKS. DESPITE THE PERIODIC OBSTRUCTIONS WE HAVE BEEN PRESENTED WITH, WE HAVE COLLECTIVELY UTILISED OUR PROBLEM SOLVING CAPABILITIES TO PROPOSE VIABLE SOLUTIONS TO EVERY CHALLENGE. THIS VOYAGE HAS BEEN AN INVALUABLE EXPERIENCE FOR US, HIGHLIGHTING THE VALUE OF TEAMWORK AND THE RELIANCE ON EACH OTHER'S EXPERTISE, APTITUDES AND UNDERSTANDING.
OWING TO THE COLLABORATIVE NATURE OF THE PROJECT, I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO HONE MY COMMUNICATION SKILLS AS I HAD TO WORK WITH VARIOUS PEOPLE. AS A RESULT, WHEN THERE WERE DISCREPANCIES, I WAS ABLE TO COMMUNICATE EFFECTIVELY RATHER THAN RESORT TO ARGUMENTS.
Reflection
DUE TO THE NATURE OF THIS TASK REQUIRING A CERTAIN DEGREE OF INDIVIDUAL WORK, I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO EMPLOY SELF-SUFFICIENCY IN THE COMPLETION OF THIS PROJECT. THIS COLLABORATIVE EFFORT HAS ENABLED ME TO INTROSPECTIVELY ANALYZE MY OWN ABILITIES AND KNOWLEDGE.
IN THE NEAR TERM, IT IS NECESSARY TO DEVELOP THE CAPACITY TO WORK COLLABORATIVELY. THIS PROJECT HAS PROVIDED ME WITH THE OPPORTUNITY TO PRACTICE AND HONE THE SKILLS I NEED FOR MY FUTURE CAREER, AS WELL AS DEEPEN MY UNDERSTANDING OF PROFESSIONAL PRACTICE WITHIN MY FIELD OF STUDY.
