Since ancient times, China has had the custom of watching the lights and enjoying the scenery. The Lantern Festival held a lantern commemorative meeting. Various lanterns were hanged at the meeting, and the lights were shining. Nowadays, people can't help but express their joy in the festive season and festive days. The lamp culture is a display of higher requirements for spiritual and cultural life after the improvement of material life in the environment of Guotai Min'an.
Looking back at the historical process of urban and architectural development, we can clearly see the forward footprint of the simultaneous development of light technology and light culture with cities and buildings, and also see how important technological advances in lighting lighting have made cities and buildings and modern urban life. The role. With the development of urban construction, the pursuit of "beauty" has become more and more obvious. The lighting project as a "face" of a city also plays a key role.
LEDs dominate the lighting project
In 2009, the LED industry developed rapidly, and the new LED Light source continued to lead the application market of lighting engineering and became the protagonist. Nowadays, many lighting companies that operate traditional street lamps have now tried LED elements in product development. And LED guardrail tubes, LED lights and other products also "decorated" the dream of the entire city. The urban lighting project, also known as the urban glory project, plays an important role in beautifying the urban environment and improving the overall image of the city. Among them, LED is indispensable.
“Ten Cities and Ten Thousands†is hot, LED applications need to be cautious
In 2009, 26 cities across the country have comprehensively carried out urban lighting pilot projects, and will select ten LED lighting promotion demonstration cities. There are many different opinions on the application of LED light source to street lighting, but from such a big move by the government, the development of LED in night landscape lighting will continue to be "hot." It is only because some cities have not carried out overall planning and positioning before the construction of urban nightscapes. In the construction of nightscapes, LEDs are simply promoted as energy-saving products, especially in the large-scale use of LED lighting in architectural landscape lighting, such as some iconic Construction, administrative office buildings, residential buildings, etc. also have the phenomenon of improper use of LEDs, prompting some cities to look at the night scenes, architectural lighting design disorder, lack of taste, lighting features can not be reflected, but also affect the image of the city.
In this regard, although LED has a broad and broad development prospects, based on the consideration of aesthetic art, making good use of LED and using LED is the real key.
Shanghai World Expo and Guangzhou Asian Games lead the "lighting" momentum
The 2010 Shanghai World Expo and the Guangzhou Asian Games were held, which opened up the development momentum of domestic lighting projects. It is reported that in order to realize the "a major change in the urban environment of Guangzhou in 2010" and the arrival of the Asian Games, Guangzhou will complete the comprehensive renovation of 1512 communities before the Asian Games, benefiting 3.5759 million residents. According to the relevant person in charge of the Guangzhou Municipal Construction Committee, Guangzhou will upgrade and transform the bright projects on both sides of the Pearl River, deepen the transformation of the bright landscape of the second and third lines on both sides of the Pearl River, and create a nighttime dynamic and bright landscape of Guangzhou, and upgrade to the night view gallery on both sides of the Pearl River. Through the construction of bright projects in key areas of each district, we will create a three-dimensional nightscape brand, while paying attention to energy conservation, environmental protection and cultural connotation, and comprehensively improve the nighttime landscape level.
On the other hand, the night scene lighting of the Shanghai World Expo Park has also begun to take shape. It is reported that in terms of lighting planning, the Expo Park presents four highlights: in terms of strategy, the Expo will become an energy-efficient urban lighting demonstration; in terms of culture, the Expo Park adopts an ecologically-protected lighting model of historical sites and is the best in the city. For the first time, the practice area integrates the application of semiconductor lighting technology on a large scale; at the human level, the lighting art and people interact with each other to enjoy the creative life brought by lighting technology; in the industry, it promotes the maximum application of Chinese manufacturing participation. In addition, the entire Expo Park is divided into five levels according to the brightness, the brightest is the celebration square, the central venue area, the pontoon bridge and other crowded squares and landmark buildings.
Lighting needs to conform to local cultural characteristics
Deng Lishan, general manager and chief designer of Guangzhou Barton Lighting Engineering Co., Ltd. believes that the lighting design of a city's nightscape needs to conform to the local cultural characteristics. If it is loved by people in the current era, then this work is suitable for the time. The society, this work was a good work at the time. As a lighting designer, preventing light pollution, saving energy, and rationally designing and coordinating are the top priorities.
What should be the overall night lighting design of a city? It should be orderly. The city night illumination can be divided into regions, and the light culture represented by each region is different. This is the direction of future lighting design.
Lighting fixtures need to be carefully selected
Zhou Hongliang, designer of Beijing Zhongtai Lighting Group Co., Ltd., believes that LED is now widely used in lighting engineering. Monochrome and surface mounted LED lamps are generally stable, but full-color color-changing LED lamps installed in hidden ways, he personally I feel that it is not ideal. At present, in many urban lighting projects, due to product quality and installation problems, the number of lamps is broken and the frequency is high. This requires the designer to analyze the cost performance of the expected effect, product quality, installation method, initial investment cost and maintenance cost to be realized, and then decide to use it after careful consideration.
postscript
In the early days of "lighting", there was such a thing heard. Ten lawyers from Nanjing jointly wrote the mayor of the book, questioning the sharing of urban lighting fees. Behind these lighting "halo", a huge cost problem is also placed in the government. In front of the enterprise, who should pay for this lighting cost?
As a glorious project, urban lighting not only enhances the bustling atmosphere of the city, but also enhances the overall image of the city. As a public utility, it cannot rely solely on government investment, and companies and individuals are duty-bound. Some people in the industry believe that the current lighting project is mainly led by the city appearance department. For the squares, parks and scenic spots, the government departments also pay for the lighting costs, and the cost of building that needs to be brightened needs to be The burden on the three sides of the owners and the government.
Here, who should pay attention to this "paying", in fact, sometimes we should also ask ourselves, is the urban lighting project a face project? Like the city, people need the necessary packaging and beautification, but Factors such as energy conservation and environmental protection cannot be ignored, and should not cause waste of resources.
In recent years, all city governments have attached great importance to urban lighting work, and have carried out urban lighting construction to varying degrees, and the construction of urban lighting projects as an important measure to improve and beautify the urban environment. Let the city shine up and be beautiful, it has become the consensus of leaders at all levels and all walks of life. Indeed, the importance of leadership is the key to doing a good job of lighting. The main leaders of many cities personally questioned the construction of urban lighting projects and included this work in the work plan of the municipal government. Organize special personnel from the organization, and set up special institutions such as “Lighting Office†and “Glory Office†to vigorously implement night lighting projects such as “Glossy Project†and “Lighting Projectâ€, and a large number of outstanding lighting projects have emerged. project. However, it is hoped that the relevant departments will also formulate a master plan for the development of urban lighting projects with high starting point, high standards and high level according to the characteristics of the city, and truly make the urban lighting project reflect the art of the city. Cultural characteristics. It is gratifying to note that many lighting designers are now working on these tasks, gradually realizing the transition from lighting to shaping the artistic image of nighttime image and lighting, and becoming a masterpiece of night lighting.
