About LightCalc
Let's face it, lighting is difficult to learn and, once learned, cumbersome to perform. Interior designers, architects, kitchen and bath designers want to take control of their lighting plans, but don't always have the necessary technical lighting background, not to mention the time to perform the tedious calculations. LightCalc was created to solve these problems. No longer is it necessary to know any of the math! The program works with information the designer has ready access to; ceiling height, room width and length, counter height, color pallette, etc. Upon entering the above type of information, LightCalc goes to work determining the appropriate footcandle level, fixture spacing, and it will suggest a ceiling layout for your fixtures. Designers will enjoy the point and click method and the visual display of what the light is doing.
