Accent

Light directs our view and focuses the attention on details. The direction of light, illuminance and the light distribution all determine the effect of an object in its surroundings.

Directed light from the front produces a strong modelling ability. Light from above causes the object to cast strong shadows on itself. Light from behind creates a silhouette. The steeper the incident light, the more pronounced the shadow effect.

The steeper the incident light, the more pronounced the shadow effect. Objects can be illuminated well when the direction of light is between 5 degree and 45 degree to the vertical. The optimal direction of light for illuminating objects is at 30 degree. This avoids strong reflected glare or undesirable shadows on people or objects.
