COMPUTER LAB


a. The space's function is a computer lab.
b. The purpose of the lamps are for aiding in tasks. They illuminate the workspace.
c. Task lighting is located overhead. Additional lighting emits from the computer screens. Also, desk lamps are provided but are rarely used because the overhead lighting provides ample light.
d. No recommendations. I have always felt there is an adequate and appropriate amount of light for computer driven tasks.
----
a. direct/indirect
b. ceiling/suspended
c. fluorescent
d. extruded aluminum
e. fixture= litecontrol le-90
lamp= sylvania
f. direct/indirect, 32w, 2 lamps in each illuminaire
g. aluminum and brushed nickel
h. none
i. fixed
j. non-dimming, instant start, internal to illuminaire
k. dry
l. baffles



LEON'S HAIR SALON

a. Leon's is a hair salon.
b. The two types of lighting within the space are task lighting and ambient lighting.
c. MR-16/task lighting is suspended from overhead. Additionally, there is cove lighting located along the perimeter of the ceiling that provides general illuminance and an ambient glow.
d. The space seemed a little dim for what I expected a hair salon would be. There was overall a good amount of general lighting in the space, but more overhead task lighting would help provide more light to the hairdressers who are focusing on cutting hair.
----
a. direct
b. suspended
c. mr-16/halogen
d. mirrored reflector
e. GE lighting
f. CBCP 525 lumens, 20 watt, 12 volt
g. metal and acrylic
h. acrylic
i. adjustable
j. non-dimming, instant start, internal ballast
k. dry
l. none


JIMMY JOHNS


a. Jimmy Johns is a restaurant where food preparation and dining takes place.
b. Most of the lighting within Jimmy John's was geared towards task lighting. Accent lighting was also seen along the ceiling, being focused onto walls. Hanging pendants over dining tables acted as both task lighting and ambient lighting.
c. In the kitchen and prep room, ceiling installed fluorescents provided an ample amount of lighting for tasks. Recessed can lighting can be seen directly above the countertop, illuminating the counter and service area. Track lighting helped cast light onto the surrounding walls, and pendant lights provided a nice diffuse glow over the dining tables.
d. Overall, Jimmy Johns was successful in using a variety of lamps to acquire the appropriate amount of light within the establishment. My only recommendation would possibly be to provide more light to wash over the wall, to further illuminate the space and accentuate the art work hanging on the walls.
----
a. direct/downlighting
b. ceiling/pendant suspending
c. compact fluorescent bulb
d. light fixture= extruded aluminum
e. light fixture= uncertain but close to Mulinello
bulb= bulbrama
f. each fixture contained 1 bulb, 40 watt, 2750 lumens
g. glass, red glazing
h. glass
i. fixed
j. instant start, internal to illuminaire
k. dry
l. none
