IES Webinar: Advanced Computation in Lighting and Daylighting Design
TUESDAY, June 28th
12:00 PM ET
As built projects and design processes become more complex and data-driven, designers must respond to a growing list of demands. Advancements in software have offered opportunities to incorporate parametric workflows within interdisciplinary teams in order to address these challenges. Through idea evolution and practical implementation of data-informed design decisions, our skillsets and knowledge expand to support and leverage these tools. In this presentation, two case studies respectively explore advanced daylighting analysis and photorealistic lighting visualization via parametric workflows. Briefly expressed, “script the challenge and inform”.
Webinar participants are eligible for one (1) IES Continuing Education Unit (CEU).
PRESENTER
Reinhardt Swart
Associate IALD, IES, LC
Reinhardt Swart is an Associate and lighting designer at SmithGroup, adjunct professor, and artist. Reinhardt’s background from The Pennsylvania State University Architectural Engineering program allows him to design holistically with respect to users, form, and environment. His continued interest in theory, daylighting, data, and parametrics have notably influenced his approach to design. During his seven years of professional experience, he has received notable lighting awards including the AEI Professional Award of Excellence for GM Flint Factory One and the IES Award of Merit for the Zeiss Michigan Quality Excellence Center. Reinhardt has given several lectures on daylighting and the philosophy of lighting design and as an active member of both the IES and IALD, he is excited to grow and inspire the lighting profession.
