    Spatial Comfort Through the use of Integrated Lighting Design in a University Bookshop
    (Lead City University, 2023-12) Adekola Adeniyi ADEBAYO
    Lighting has long been acknowledged for improving vision and influencing different elements of the humanexperience, such as mood, productivity, and overall pleasure. However, university bookshops lack research on integrated lighting design, which creates a knowledge gap and makes it difficult to design lighting solutions that meet the needs of different users. This thesis aims to showcase how integrated lighting design can improve spatial comfort and promote better health and well-being in bookshops. By analyzing the fundamental elements of natural lighting, including direction, intensity, and color, as well as shading and glazing techniques, designers can create indoor spaces that maximize the benefits of natural lighting while minimizing its drawbacks. A university bookshop was designed using integrated lighting techniques such as proper placement and sizing of windows, combined with light-reflecting materials. Ultimately, this thesis demonstrates the positive impact of lighting design integration in enhancing spatial comfort and overall indoor quality.
