Is it possible to achieve optimal lighting in the museum space, which improves its functionality? And how is that done? This article discusses the previous question to achieve specific purposes: highlighting the importance of lighting in public buildings, especially in museums, and emphasizing the importance of using computer technology in the process of studying and proposing solutions that contribute to improving the performance of lighting in the museum (Lattakia museum in Syria as a case study).
The study method is concerned with the use of environmental analysis software (ECOTECT Desktop RADIANCE) applied to the case study, which leads us to main results that can be summarized in: emphasizing the role of lighting in the process of optimal performance in the museum in the event that the lighting is natural, and choosing the appropriate lighting element in the event that the lighting is artificial, which later recommends the architects or designer the necessity of conducting research and design studies on natural and industrial lighting in the design stage to upgrade the museum to perform the optimal performance of the View exhibits process.…
