Artificial Lighting in the Future Cities: Creation of Architecture by the Physics of Light

Abstract

The lighting is considered one of the most important factors in urban design and due to its important role in human life; this factor should be further recognized. Artificial lighting should be as profitable as natural lighting and result in material and spiritual growth of cities and humans. Unfortunately, there is not an integrated lighting, appropriate to specific goals for a wide area such as a city: a lighting that helps functional and social factors direct and transfer the population into different segregated areas of the city, in addition to achievements including beauty, variation and Memorability, economy and tourism, population growth, locating and better enjoying of the roads. For this purpose, a plan was provided in which linear lighting with different colors is used in every segregated area of the city that is the main factor for directing the population to each area and eliminates inner-city problems, such as waste of time and violence. Thus, in this study, descriptive analytical (qualitative and quantitative) research was used as survey and library method and assumed that the study objectives are achieved after completing the project and the obtained results proved the hypothesis. Also, since the project is profitable and it also helps heighten the material and spiritual quality of humans, any person with common sense would run it.
