Lighting is an essential to one's household and it is found everywhere in our world and society today. The design of lighting shows how designers combine the essences of form and function. We see basic lights installed in our homes today but what we don't realize are the designs that is implied within them. Lights come in all shapes and sizes which expresses it's form. There are certain lights that are small and mounted into your wall or ceiling and there are free standing ones.
The form of the light does little if it wasn't followed by the function of it, i mean what's a light if it didn't shine or light your household right? So as designers they have to take into consideration of how much function the design will put out, so how much light will be expressed. We can see most lights that follow the element of balance and is round because that being round spreads the most light using function to it’s fullest. They also take into consideration about how the light will sit or be presented and also how many light bulbs will be used or what type of light bulbs will used.
There are many designs for lighting out there, all over our society and everyday household, we just have to keep an open mind and give the designers credits for their thoughts into creating it.
