Lighting has undergone a revolution in recent years, with new tools and technologies at our disposal: never before have there been so many options to achieve the transformative effects of light. Yet all too often, lighting - which does not just enable functionality, but also mood, aesthetics and flow - is misunderstood, or plain badly done. With so many options available, it's also all too easy to make mistakes; and with new technologies such as LEDs lasting a long time, these mistakes can be expensive. Offering practical insight and visual inspiration on successful lighting solutions and schemes, this is the most accessible lighting design guide, offering a toolbox of techniques to apply in practice. Written by one of the UK's leading lighting designers on both commercial and residential projects, it features a variety of real-world projects - large and small, old and new, interior and exterior, UK and global.

'The advent of machine learning-based AI systems demands that our industry does not just share toys, but builds a new sandbox in which to play with them.' - Phil Bernstein The profession is changing. A new era is rapidly approaching when computers will not merely be instruments for data creation, manipulation and management, but, empowered by artificial intelligence, they will become agents of design themselves. Architects need a strategy for facing the opportunities and threats of these emergent capabilities or risk being left behind. Architecture's best-known technologist, Phil Bernstein, provides that strategy. Divided into three key sections - Process, Relationships and Results - Machine Learning lays out an approach for anticipating, understanding and managing a world in which computers often augment, but may well also supplant, knowledge workers like architects. Armed with this insight, practices can take full advantage of the new technologies to future-proof their business. Features chapters on: Professionalism Tools and technologies Laws, policy and risk Delivery, means and methods Creating, consuming and curating data Value propositions and business models.
