There are several ways in which lighting can be incorporated into urban design:
1. Street lighting: Incorporating street lighting in urban design is a must for safety reasons. It ensures that streets and public spaces are well-lit, making it easy for pedestrians and motorists to see and navigate their way.
2. Architectural lighting: Architectural lighting can be used to highlight the features of buildings, plazas, or landmarks to make them stand out and create visual interest. It can also be used to enhance the aesthetic beauty of the urban environment.
3. Landscape lighting: Adding landscape lighting to public parks, gardens, and green spaces can create a beautiful ambiance and make these areas safer and more accessible at night.
4. Public art lighting: Incorporating lighting into public art installations can make them more engaging and interesting, drawing attention to the art pieces and enhancing their impact.
5. Façade lighting: Adding lighting to the façades of buildings can create a dramatic and dynamic effect, helping to enhance the city's skyline and creating an inviting atmosphere.
