In these images we have beautiful examples of lighting with LED and recessed LED as in photos 1 and 3, combination of table lamps and natural light in an office (photo number 4) and ceiling lamps with warm light that creates atmosphere in a restaurant photo 2.

As it shown in the pictures, lighting is not suitable for these rooms. In fact, in the number 1 there are no lights for the sofas and for living room; in 2 is poor light. In the 3rd picture the room is not completely illuminated and in 4 the studio is wrongly illuminated with a floor lamp and not with a table lamp.

1 In all the images the audio system is well connected to the video system and in all of them we see how each is well connected also to the lighting with spotlights and speakers recessed in the ceiling. The picture number 1 is also enhanced by another element that supports this example, namely the projector.

3 The photo number 1 has the bulky and dangerous speakers (they could fall down). The photos number 2 has a good sound system that does not support the video and they are really bulky as well. In the photo 3 it should be better to use air conditioned instead of fan because the window should it keep closed while you watch movies, so you can’t change air in this way. Pic n°4 is a biggest audio system related with the size of the room.

Rationale - 1500 words

Taking up the briefing of Mike and Luke that the house was set with a minimalist style in the furnishing and classic in the finishes, the lighting and the audio video systems were also integrated into the furniture with the same criterion. This contrast is visible both in the ground floor and in the first floor. On the ground floor I installed: a large, very classic suspended chandelier at the entrance, immediately behind a row of spotlights recessed up to the kitchen and on the left a wall light. On the right instead of the step lights embedded in the steps of the stairs. Spotlights and a pair of lamps suspended above the table continue in the living room and in the kitchen. A neon in the laboratory concludes the list of lighting on the ground floor. On the upper floor, 6 types of light have been installed in all rooms, including bathrooms; these are hanging lamps, the spot lights recessed like on the lower floor in the corridor characterize the plant in the same way. Also for the electronic audio video system I installed a TV aerial and a telephone in each bedroom and these have been enriched with single and double switches and a light circuit that operates in 2 positions, thus reaching the 5 types of AV system. Going down, we return to the ground floor where we find: single and double switches, the telephone in the kitchen, the TV in the living room and the fan in the laboratory also going to complete the 5 types of AV system. The goal is to create a pleasant, homogeneous environment in the details, to ensure that the subtle character of minimalist finishes does not invade or contrast with the much more striking classic details than the minimal ones.
