Traditionally, lighting design could be a tedious process, often involving physical mockups, time-consuming calculations, and static renderings using multiple software tools. With advancing technology, these traditional methods are giving way to more sophisticated tools that enhance precision, speed, and visualization. On the downside, many of the new tools are not particularly intuitive and the learning curve can be high. Light ARchitect is a notable exception. Light ARchitect is the multiple award-winning lighting simulation app developed by Cooper Lighting Solutions. Using real-time surveying capabilities, instant photometric calculations, and augmented reality (AR) visualization, Light ARchitect eliminates the guesswork from lighting design and fosters a more efficient and collaborative process involving all stakeholders and resulting in expedited decision-making throughout the project.

Most indoor spaces can benefit from the application of different types of light. This benefit is valid for commercial and residential applications. There are three types of lighting systems: ambient (general) lighting, task (focused) lighting, and accent (attention) lighting. The key components of layered lighting design are ambient, task, and accent lighting. They create a balanced, functional, and aesthetically pleasing space when used together.
There are many socket options available in the lighting market, and consumers often wonder whether to choose shunted or non-shunted sockets. Selecting the correct sockets for a linear lamp is paramount to prevent hazards such as electrical shorts or compromised safety. Using the wrong socket type could lead to a fire hazard, causing damage to both the tubes and sockets or, in the worst-case scenario, endangering lives. Moreover, using the incorrect sockets might void the UL listing on the lamp or reduce its overall lifespan.
