Taking Sides
February 24th, 2016
About the Event
Join us for a fun and educational evening of lively, sometimes absurd debate between members of the New York City lighting design community. Enjoy a verbal joust, as the debaters take sides on some of the most pressing topics in the lighting industry, during a light-hearted evening of discussion mixed with humorous provocation and competition.
The topics have been chosen to provoke a dialog, so the opinions expressed by our panel may not be their personal stance, but will surely be interesting to hear.
•Is it important to have a theatrical background to be a good architectural lighting designer?
•Manufacturer representatives are valuable to the lighting design practice.
•New IES color metrics and new color shifting sources prioritize quality of lighting over energy efficiency.
•Controls design should be part of the lighting designer’s scope.
Our confirmed panel members include prominent figures from all aspects of the lighting industry.
