Lighting
Museum lighting has changed dramatically over the decades, in line with new thinking and developing technology.
In this issue of Museum Practice, Rebecca Atkinson looks at the rise of LED lighting and asks whether this can provide the museum and heritage sector with a long-term, low-energy solution to lighting. Meanwhile, lighting designer Stephen Cannon-Brookes looks at new approaches in predicting daylight levels using climate based daylight modelling.
There are also case studies from the Victoria and Albert Museum, the Museum of the Order of St John and the Hermitage Museum in St Petersburg. You can also share your views and experiences of LEDs and other lighting dilemmas in the Have Your Say forum.
