  While it may be easy to visualize fabrics from swatches and large  samples, lighting is much more complex. One cannot touch or feel it, yet it is  all around and responsible for what we see. Lighting by Design takes an  imaginative and creative look at the potential of creating and using light both  inside and outside the home.  Since skillful lighting is the balance between light and shade, the book begins  with a discussion on the nature of light and the interplay of light and shadow  on buildings inside and out. It demonstrates unique ways to become creative with  light within the home to achieve varying effects from calm softness to  theatrical drama. Lighting by Design also offers a comprehensive overview on  outdoor lighting; entrances and exits; roof terraces and decks; and even special  topics, such as topiaries, swimming pools, and statues. What's more, it also  includes timeless advice for using colored light, patterns, and focus, and  demonstrates ways to use lighting to blend garden and interior dimensions into a  unified whole.  Magnificent full-color photography specially commissioned for this extraordinary  reference details amazing before-and-after effects and creative ways of using  daylight and artificial light to create new moods. Also included are scores of  inspirational photos that feature the interiors of such well-known designers as  Jonathan Reed, Mary Fox Linton, Nina Campbell, and Tricia Guild.   Packed with elegant ideas, superb examples, and imaginative suggestions for  creating a dramatic and changing environment, Lighting by Design offers a brand- new and innovative perspective on outdoor and indoor decor!
