LIGHT STUDY 1: LUMINOSITY Light is an indispensable part of architecture.When it comes to the use of light, we have to mention Zaha Hadid, who is a master figure. Zaha Hadid›s projects are remarkable not only for her innovative way of handling tangible materials but also for her imagination regarding the medium of light. Her theories of fragmentation and fluidity are now wellknown design techniques which enabled her form-finding. However, her advances in using light to render her architecture have often been neglected—even though they became an essential element in revealing and interpreting her architecture. The three-decade transition from minimal light lines at her early Vitra Fire Station to the world›s tallest atrium at the Leeza SOHO skyscraper, which collects an abundance of daylight, shows the remarkable development of Zaha Hadid’s luminous legacy. Light closes the gap between architecture and our perception. We sense forms and materials with our eyes not directly but through the reflected light. Zaha Hadid›s use of light might appear graphical at first sight with her light lines. Nevertheless, the grand dame operated very skillfully to enhance her architectural imagination. Luminous lines—either as luminaires or windows—characterize her early work, whereas luminous fields and a play of brilliance emerged later.

design approach and thus moving on from Hadid›s earlier period of lines and sharp corners. The elevated concrete structure generates a large shaded area, with the view to daylight on one side intensifies the impression of a dark void. As a counterpoint, diffuse ceiling luminaires intervene in the dim atmosphere. The diagonal building structure has been translated into rhombus-shaped windows for the façade. In contrast to earlier projects with sharp edges, Hadid›s forms here took on curved shapes, marking a transition to fluid designs. In order to form a coherent exterior surface, the rhombus contour has also been applied to the underside of the elevated museum. Thereby the visitors perceive a holistic formal approach encompassing both daylight and artificial lighting.

PAR GEOMETRICAL DIAGRAMMING OF SEEK LIGHT METAPHOR
IDEA GEN
For my first design. My inspiration came from a glass shading I saw on the Internet. Its called Hance Park. Different from the previous shading, he resorted to specific glass to fade the ultraviolet and light radiation, instead of blocking out the sunlight, which was a good design. For my second design. My inspiration comes from an energy-saving fluorescent lamp, which collects sunlight through the radiation of sunlight and can get full illumination without turning on the light during the day. It is a sustainable development device. So i use this system. The last idea, I used solar panels, and I wanted to make the design more sustainable and creative.The solar panel collects energy during the day to convert the sun›s energy into electricity, and when the sun isn›t shining at night, its stored energy is used to power the bulb.

LIGHT STUDY 4: FILTRATION
For his three sacred buildings, Le Corbusier has played masterfully with orientation, openings and textures to create kinetic architecture with daylight. His pilgrimage chapel at Ronchamp, the monastery of Sainte Marie de La Tourette, and the parish church of Saint-Pierre in Firminy reveal distinctive and individual approaches that each render contemplative spaces with light. In his book “Cosmos of Light: The Sacred Architecture of Le Corbusier,” Henry Plummer, Professor Emeritus at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, has analysed these projects with outstanding photographs taken over 40 years and brilliant writing.Light has been linked with divinity and holiness in many different religions. In Christianity the Bible speaks of God who “is light” or Christ as “the light of the world”. Even if the divine light and visible light are not the same, visible light appears as the most similar to the heavenly and thereby links both spheres. Each epoch has formed a new language of light: The glow of the Romanesque apse, the golden shimmer of Byzantine mosaics or the luminous walls of Gothic stained glass. As an artist as well as an architect, Le Corbusier expressed an exceptional sensitivity for the interaction of colours and light in his sacred buildings. His position as an outspoken agnostic seems very ambivalent in combination with his desire to open the soul to poetic realms.

The light orchestration at La Tourette is more complex and widely dispersed in comparison to Ronchamp, remarks Plummer. The Monastery of Sainte Marie de la Tourette at Éveux-sur-l’Arbresle (60-1953), with its rectilinear geometry, embodies a clear counterpoint to the poetic forms of Ronchamp and Firminy. Due to the fact that all corridors have an open side facing one of the four cardinal directions, the believers encounter diverse light experiences. Additionally, the corridors are distinguished with different window arrangements. The irregular rhythm of light and shadow appears like a musical composition, notes Plummer when he observes the corridor to the atrium: “Unlike the repetitive rhythms of windows and columns in traditional churches, these fluent rhythms are aperiodic, based upon intervals of light and transparency that gradually compress and expand in waves. The lovingly cadenced beats have the intonation and flow of music – not orchestral music, but chant-like sounds, whose tones help to draw people further into a contemplative state.” The highlight of the light choreography in La Tourette›s church begins with the sunset. A crack atop the west wall draws warm lines along the side walls. The north wall connects the two golden lines and with the falling sun the line slowly moves upward. The dramatic atmosphere increases till the moment when the golden light hits the slight upward tilted roof plane and grazes over the tactile ceiling of prefabricated slabs. This effect changes with the seasons – ranging form a small triangle in winter to a large rectangle in summer when the sun reaches its maximum power.
