Summary

In the past the focus of urban illumination has been purely functional. Designing with Light and Shadow, however, is a treatise on the work of Kaoru Mende + Lighting Planners Assiciates, a Japanese firm, which purposely creates spaces to leave a lasting impression through the use. This fascinating full colour book explores the use of light from many different aspects: from the senuous through to the pragmatic sequencing of place and time not forgetting, or course, its relationship to the natural environment. This is an unusual book, full of parctical and innovative ideas.
