Note from June 29, 2020
Although we do not yet know how long the social distancing related to the Covid-19 pandemic will last, and regardless of the changes that had to be made in the evaluation of the June 2020 session in relation to what is provided for in this learning unit description, new learnig unit evaluation methods may still be adopted by the teachers; details of these methods have been - or will be - communicated to the students by the teachers, as soon as possible.

Main themes
This course aims to train future architects in strategies and design tools integrating the space-light dimension; more specifically this module develops the relationship between space and light, both natural and artificial.
Projecting spaces with light is based on an analytical approach, integrating the sensitive dimension: establishing "light strategies" materialized by "light effects" and generated by "light mechanisms".
Understanding the link between space and light implies understanding its sensitive and poetic dimension, through theoretical input, in situ observations and life-size experiments.
Objectifying any project with light requires mastery of computer lighting software: from the insertion of photometric data to the reading and interpretation of results, and the expression of the atmosphere obtained through synthetic images.
At the end of the course, students will be able to design spaces, both indoor and outdoor, integrating light and to draw up lighting plans for environments built on the basis of spatial perceptions and the way these places are used.
