Light illuminates the world and shows it to us.
We can say that vision, and therefore light, determines the relation with the environment. And the relation with the environment is the first goal of lighting planning.
With this publishing activity the iGuzzini Study and Research Centre intends to contribute to the cultural debate on light, knowing that lighting planning plays a crucial role in working activities, culture, art and relationships between individuals.
