The Aesthetic Side of Lights




Light plays a huge impact in all living things. Without light our ecosystem will collapse. Plants cannot process its food without light. Without plants animals and humans don't stand a chance of survival too.

Nowadays light does not only meant to provide us with our energy source, protection and security but it also provide us for our aesthetic needs. Man craves for all things that are pleasing to the eyes including light. Lighting designers here and abroad created and innovated the lighting fixtures in answer to our aesthetic needs.(credit goes to the photographer)

The Love Month

February, known as the month of love is here again. Star-crossed lovers in general are all looking forward to this month to express their love towards each other. They would express their love by sending bouquets of lovely flowers and delicious chocolates or treat their love ones to a candle-lit dinner in an elegant and expensive restaurant. A few lovers would wait for this month to make a wedding proposal. Its kind of cheesy to some but to those who are in love, they find it romantic.

Most of the time their proposal are made in restaurants decorated with something which spells out romance such as the interior and exterior lighting designs, center table, chairs, wall and counter tables because such decorations exudes a cozy and romantic atmosphere which will normally result to a positive response. Moreover some romantics would go an extra mile to express their undying love by setting up a romantic dinner for two themselves.(credit goes to the photographer)

The Importance Of Light To Man







Light is of great importance in this world. We all depend on it. We wouldn't be able to do anything in the dark. As the song goes, "it is better to light just one little candle than to stumble in the dark." 

Lighting designers vary their design lighting depending on the our needs. They designed night lamps to make sure that we have a good night rest and brightening our bedrooms. They created streetlights and car blinkers to make sure that we won't get lost while travelling at night or to avoid accidents. They created display lighting to showcase the best products we have in our shops, boutiques, or business establishments. And most of all they are committed to design lighting fixtures for our enjoyment.  Notice how pretty our parks, museums, plaza's, offices and building units look at night? They are made possible by the various interior and exterior lighting designs which are meticulously made by our creative designers.

If you'll ask me, the best lighting designs are not designed by man but by our dear mother nature. The great sun which is one of our sources of energy provide us heat and lighting during the day while it lends it light to the moon at night. Stars on the other are use for navigation since time immemorial. It is through the stars that the three magi are able to find Jesus Christ in Bethlehem.

I don't know a single person who loves total darkness. Living in a pitch black world is like living in eternal fear and confusion. None of us would want that. Remember that light gives meaning to our insignificant lives. All of us seek it even in the afterlife.
