SITE INFORMATION In the university of adelaide, the spacious and bright maths lawns consists of two lawns in between the Braggs, Molecular Life Science, Ingkarni Wardli and the Engineering and Maths Science building. There lawns are lined by picnic tables where we can have a bench to sit on to have a meals under the sunlight or study with couples of friends as well. A water bubbler stands in front of the Braggs entrance. On important days, events are held here such as clubs performance in orientation week each sememster every year. Sometimes there are BBQ here help staffs and students with an enjoyable rest in the busy life. It encourages students to have social activities with each other.

LIGHT STUDY The term “luminosity” is about the quality or state of being luminous, emitting or reflecting light as well as the relative quantity of light. It is related to brightness, which is the luminance of an object in a given spectral region. The antonyms of it are dark and blackness. Luminosity is usually used in astronomy to describe the total amount of energy that is emitted by a star, galaxy or other astronomical object per unit time. However, in terms of the philosophical theory, it is often connected with light, illumination, flux and brightness etc. Whatever it is about, the principal part is the supply of light. It can be said that the brighter, the more luminous. And the value for this is expressed in “lumens”. Besides, the use of light sources as well as lighting is illumination. Flux can be used to measure luminosity as it is a flow or discharge of energy or particles across a given surface. We feel a building not straightforward but through the light. Light is able to be necessary to reveal and represent an architecture to the audience.

Case study: Walt Disney Concert Hall/ Frank Gehry It is a good example to look at Walt Disney concert hall designed by Frank Gehry as a case to research how luminaire help with visual effects of an architecture. Since it is a concert hall, the WDCT has both excellent acoustic and lighting design with a unique form and special metal material.
Looking far away from it, the WDCH is like a luminous collection of metal pieces. The outer shape of the main body is like a blooming f l o w e r co n s i s ts o f s e ven petals folding each other and is surrounded by stainless steel surface reflecting light of a cool color. The smooth metal surface also reflect the scene nearby. As a result, the external form and material characteristic is different from traditional music centers. In the morning, the surface of the main entrance will be under the action of day light showing a mixed color of khaki and silver gray ; in the evening, this color will be transformed into dark blue and dark gray. Fluidity is enhanced with daylight and artificial light result from the titanium surface. As a building medium to connect light, reflective stainless steel surface help individual panels and curves of the facade clearly displayed in the sunlight and are colored by the city's lights after the darkness.
The interior design of the concert hall is one of the most elegant of Gary's work, and the interior design of several of his other buildings is dark and somewhat depressing, but the Disney concert hall is bright, transparent and elegant. The use of Douglas fir as walls make the interior of the building filled with a sense of romantic and warm. The design of the auditorium is a warm, golden and glossy atmosphere. Some little lights up in the ceiling remind the audience of a golden, glamor and splendid starry sky.
The other work of Frank Gehry -The Guggenheim Museum Bilbao is quite similar to WDCH in terms of the surface. It consists of a number of irregular streamlined polyhedron and pieces of titanium sheet, shining under the light. Although the building itself is a consumption of 5,000 tons of steel monster, it is nothing with a heavy sense because of elegant, bright colors. Inside the museum, light and shadow pour down straightforward to reflect powerful geometric order that any other high straight space do not have. Under this circumstance, visitors are activated with all senses to enjoy an artistic carnival . Ref: http://www.archdaily.com/441358/adclassics-walt-disney-concert-hall-frankgehry
