Abstract :
D.L.D., Dynamic Lighting Design, is a three year, E.U. funded, ongoing research project, concerning ways of designing dynamic luminous environments for pedestrians in open public spaces. This paper presents a set of ideas about how space and the surface of architecture are defined in a dynamic luminous environment, which enhance pedestrian lighting and encourage people to walk and visit public spaces. The D.L.D., parametric interactive lighting software in urban public space, will also be outlined in this paper.
