If you were told millions of people across the world are hungry not because we don’t produce enough food, but because we waste food, you’ll probably laugh it off. But then, this is a fact, an inconvenient truth to be precise, that we have long turned blind eye to. In fact, when it comes to food wastage, India is one of the major culprits.

1) Good lighting design is important for creating the right mood and allowing people to perform activities in homes. Lighting must be tailored to the different spaces and uses within a home.
2) Light is a form of electromagnetic radiation that makes vision possible. Key factors that affect light include its wavelength, sources like incandescence and luminescence, and how it behaves through reflection, refraction, and interactions with materials.
3) Proper lighting design considers factors like illuminance, luminance, lighting types like general, accent, decorative, and task lighting, and how light impacts vision and psychology within a space. A variety of artificial light sources exist that must be selected appropriately.
Postmodern architecture emerged in the late 1970s as a response to the perceived inadequacies of modernism. It incorporated eclectic design elements, ornamentation, and references to historical architectural styles that had been rejected by modernism. Notable postmodernist architects included Robert Venturi, Charles Moore, Philip Johnson, and Hafiz Contractor. They reintroduced decorative elements like colors, columns, and ornamentation to building facades. Postmodernism also emphasized context, symbolism, and playful references over the functionalism and minimalism of modern architecture.

This document discusses different types of lighting sources and fixtures. It describes natural light from the sun and artificial lights including incandescent, fluorescent, and LED bulbs. Incandescent bulbs produce light through a heated filament while fluorescent bulbs use gas and phosphors. LEDs are small, efficient, and produce high light intensity. The document also outlines different methods of lighting installation including direct, indirect, and diffused approaches as well as architectural lighting techniques like cove, track, and soffit fixtures. Common portable and non-architectural fixtures like ceiling, wall, and table lamps are also summarized.
The document discusses the difference between shape and form in architecture, with shape being void of information and meaning while form results from a generative process and ideology. It argues that contemporary "shape architecture" focuses too much on superficiality and empty gestures rather than interrogating what architecture is truly about. The conclusion calls for a renewed focus on form over shape to give architecture deeper meaning beyond self-referential content.
The document discusses the emergence and development of early modernist architecture in the early 20th century. It describes how styles like Cubism, Futurism, Purism, Dada, De Stijl, and the Bauhaus movement influenced architects to explore more abstract and experimental approaches. Notable architects like Le Corbusier, Mies van der Rohe, and Frank Lloyd Wright helped pioneer modernist styles focused on new technologies and functional, minimalist designs that rejected ornamentation in favor of form following function. Early modernism marked a radical shift away from traditional styles and a move towards new visions of art and architecture for the modern industrial age.
A pendant light is a single light fixture that hangs from the ceiling by a cord, chain, or metal rod. Pendant lights can be used individually or in multiples hung together. They come in various shapes and sizes and are suitable for general, task, or decorative lighting. A recessed light is installed into an opening in the ceiling and appears to have light shining from a hole, directing the light downward as a floodlight or spotlight. Recessed lights come in different trim styles like eyeball, reflector, baffle, and shower lens.
The document discusses the architectural styles of neomodernism, deconstructionism, and their key characteristics. It provides examples of works by prominent deconstructionist architects like Frank Gehry, Bernard Tschumi, and Zaha Hadid. Gehry's own house is cited as one of the earliest examples of deconstructivist buildings due to its unconventional use of materials and forms. Tschumi's Parc de la Villette in Paris incorporates deconstructionist principles through its collection of sculptural garden spaces.
Late Modernism, also known as High-tech architecture, emerged in the 1970s incorporating elements of industry and technology into building design. It served as a transition between Modernism and Post-Modernism, revealing structural elements on the exterior. Notable examples include Renzo Piano and Richard Rogers' Centre Pompidou in Paris, with its exposed colored pipes and ducts, and Philip Johnson's Glass House, built simply of glass and steel.
This document discusses different types of lighting used in photography, including hard light and soft light. Hard light comes from a small light source and creates sharp shadows, while soft light has a larger source or diffusion material and fills shadows. Common lighting fixtures mentioned are fresnels, ellipsoidals, and scoops. Methods for softening hard light include moving the light closer, using reflectors to bounce light, umbrellas, and placing diffusion materials between the light and subject.
The document discusses the history of furniture design from ancient Egypt through postmodernism. It provides examples of different types of ancient Egyptian furniture found in tomb paintings and museums, including chairs, stools, beds, and chests dating from the 18th dynasty. It also describes furniture from ancient Greece such as the kline couch and klismos chair. The document then covers artistic styles such as Art Nouveau, Bauhaus, and postmodernism, citing influential designers like Charles Rennie Mackintosh, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, and Robert Venturi.
The document discusses the history and characteristics of various furniture styles including: modern, arts and crafts, Queen Anne, Chippendale, Federal, Empire, Shaker, Duncan Phyfe, Baroque, and Spanish Baroque. Key details include that modern furniture aimed for low costs using new materials and technologies, arts and crafts featured flowing designs and elaborate carvings, and Queen Anne style incorporated cabriole legs and small delicate pieces. Federal style emerged after the American Revolution to show independence, and Duncan Phyfe was an adaptation of other styles rather than its own. Baroque featured large twisted columns and heavy moldings flowing throughout, while Spanish Baroque commonly used beige colors and decorative wood legs and arms.
The document provides a history of interior design from early Christian and Byzantine periods to the Baroque and Rococo periods. It covers major styles including Christian and Byzantine, Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque and Rococo. For each period and style, it describes characteristic features, examples, and how the style developed and was expressed differently across regions of Europe.
Postmodern architecture emerged in the 1960s as a rejection of the strict functionalism of modern architecture. It sought to reintroduce ornamentation, color, and references to historical styles. Key characteristics included drawing from multiple sources rather than pure forms, moving away from neutral colors, and taking elements from different styles and combining them in new ways. Notable postmodern architects included Robert Venturi, Philip Johnson, and Michael Graves.

Modernist architecture emerged in the late 19th to early 20th century as a philosophical movement to reconcile architectural design with technological advancement. It emphasized form following function through simplicity and clarity. Postmodernist architecture arose in the late 20th century as a reaction against modernism, replacing its functional forms with diverse aesthetics through pluralism, irony, and contextual references. Notable modernist architects included Mies van der Rohe and Le Corbusier, while postmodernists included Michael Graves and Philip Johnson.

2. Modern Furniture and
Vivid Colours
• When you are designing your home, it is always a good
idea to keep a theme and aesthetic in mind. Too many
people simply throw a number of different designs
together, hoping that things will pan out, and when they
do this, things seldom do! If you want to create a very
modern look for your home, you will of course need
modern furniture, and this is where a few important tips
can help you. Check out these tips and trends for
modern furnishings that will keep you on track.
3. Colours
• When you want a very modern look for your home
furnishings, it is important to pick a colour palate and to
stick with it. For example, consider the fact that the show
Mad Men has had a very iconic influence on our modern
style, which hearkens right back to the fifties!
4. Colours
• If you are invested in the Mad Men aesthetic, consider
choosing furniture that has a very bright, but very limited
palate. While an entire furniture set in bright orange
might be a little outrageous, you’ll find that it catches the
eye like nothing else.
5. Wood or Metal?
• People often wonder whether wood or metal is more
modern, and though it is very tempting to say that metal
is always more modern than wood, nothing could be
further from the truth! For example, compare a chair with
wrought iron trim to a trendy couch that uses re-
purposed wood with a great deal of character as part of
the frame?
6. Wood or Metal?
• The key to remember is that wood can be just as modern
as metal if you look for the right pieces. Take a moment
to think about how the piece hangs together and what
kind of effect the piece of furniture creates as a whole.
There is a big trend right now for eco-friendly, renewable
wood, and that’s a fantastic modern aesthetic for your
furniture.
7. Textures
• When you are looking at furniture, you of course want to
know what it feels like against your hand. Modern
furniture tends to be more sleek and more slick than
traditional furniture, though of course, there are
exceptions.
8. Textures
• If you truly want a piece of furniture that is plush rather
than sleek, consider choosing a piece that has a unique
and angular shape to it. For example, if you want a plush
armchair, consider choosing one with very sharp edges
and a very square look to it. This is a good way to make
sure that your furniture matches even if the upholstery
does not match in terms of textures.
9. Be Willing to Experiment
• There is a big trend right now for retro pieces, so you
never know when a random piece of furniture that you
pick up at an outlet store is going to work perfectly. One
way to stay on the look out for gorgeous modern pieces
is to carry a schematic of your living room.
10. Be Willing to Experiment
• Map out where all of the furniture goes, and record the
dimensions of the space. This will help you decide if a
new piece will fit.
11. • When you are looking for modern
furniture, there are some fantastic options
open to you.
