General information

Subject supevisor: Mr. József Nádas
Seminar leaders:

  1. Mr. Attila Korcsmáros (mechanical engineering part)
  2. Dr. Antal Ürmös PhD. (lighting technology part)

Goal of the subject:
Lighting has significant role in the design of visual comfort feeling and environment. During the lectures, the elements of lighting techniques, devices, circuit assemblies and possibilities will be introduced. The students attain the fundamental conceptions and langague of lighting technique, in order to the interest of successful cooperation with other designers. Fundamental knowledge supervision with tests. The students get to know with the lighting techniques and its visual effects and with the fundamentals of the natural lighting. They make independent analysis about existent interior design of residence and a lighting plan about an imagined residence.

The designed building, from the statical construction comfortable, habitable interior design, i.e. the presentation, how become a lifeless building to a liveable building. The main topics of the building engineering are also introduced, as well as the main requirements related to interior space and the devices, applied to building design. The students make independent analysis about an interior design of existent residence and a building engineering plan about an imagined residence.
