Learning Spaces Guidelines
Generic Guidelines: 11
above: recessed feature lighting
Lighting controls should be available in close proximity to the
entrance in all learning spaces. For larger spaces secondary controls
in proximity to the teaching facilities are required so that the lighting
can be optimised by the lecturer for different sections of the session.
above: example of unlabelled lighting control
Ideally a range of lighting levels and dispersement patterns should
be selectable by the user of the space. Lighting controls should be
clearly labelled, ideally with illustrative lighting pattern diagrams.
Selection of switch units with superfluous buttons (more buttons
than are needed) should be avoided because this can confuse the
end user.
