Three principles of museum lighting
1. Protect cultural relics
How to safely protect unique and rare exhibits is the primary topic of museum display lighting. Lighting design and technology must prioritize the safety of exhibits, and control and reduce light damage to exhibit materials, colors, and textures.
Controlling the total annual exposure of cultural relics and art exhibits is an important means of coordinating protection and display. The museum should control the annual exposure of the exhibits' lights.
In addition, the cultural relics displayed in the museum are susceptible to accelerated aging and damage due to the influence of infrared and ultraviolet radiation in the lighting environment. This factor must also be considered in the lighting design of the museum.
2. Restore the true colors
High color rendering index lights can truly restore the original appearance and colors of historical relics, and truly present civilization in front of the audience.
In the lighting design of the museum, different angles of light should be set according to the needs of different exhibits to achieve the best display effect and maximize the utilization of light. Multi-angle accurate light distribution, restore wonderful artistic details.
3. Comfortable environment
In the lighting design of the museum, the hue, saturation, intensity and brightness distribution of the light in the display space should be fully considered to create a visually comfortable light environment.
In the selection of lamps, lamps with simple design and emphasis on functionality will be a better choice. Of course, as one of the elements in the scene, lamps not only provide lighting for the scene, but also build the style tone of the museum lighting scene, which is displayed in the performance. In the process of the theme, the appearance design of the lamps should be coordinated with the style of the building.
