顏色、聲音、光線，可說是決定人們在空間中情緒的三大要素，繼前兩期雜誌內文介紹過顏色象徵後，再次引領讀者進入居家裝潢世界，看聲光如何巧妙入居。Color, sound and light are the 3 determinants of human emotions; as a continuation of discussion on the symbolism of colors on the previous 2 issues, this time we introduce our readers into the world of home decor and examine how sound and light influences the ambiance at home.
中國人重視風水，認為居家環境中空氣以及光線流通，才得以聚氣、納氣，於是才能生財。其實撇開迷信不談，就科學角度來說，倘若家中每個小空間的動線都保持流暢，讓光線不受阻斷，一氣喝成相互串聯，便能讓心境開闊、平穩，自然就有足夠的精力去經營事業進而財源湧進。當我們想要光線充足時，最容易聯想到的就是大面積落地窗，但在地狹人稠的都市中，允許這樣條件的住宅並非比比皆是，那麼小空間的屋主就無權享有美好光源嗎？
Chinese people perceive great importance in Feng Shui; they believe that in order to obtain wealth, Chi must be gathered and preserved; this cannot be accomplished without fluent movement of air and light in the living environment. From a more scientific perspective, if free movement can be maintained in every small space in the house and without interruption in lighting, an open and calm state of mind will be obtained; when this happens, one naturally has enough energy to manage the business and hence the forthcoming of fortune. When we talk about sufficient lighting, large French windows immediately come into mind, however in the crowded urban environment, not many residences have this luxury. Does this mean that small home owners cannot enjoy good lighting?
其實，近幾年照明設備漸漸備受重視，已成為設計師們展現創意的兵家必爭之地，運用在其上的科技也一再挑戰突破。近幾年來，LED燈幾乎可以說是燈具主流，它最大的好處就是亮度高、省電、熱度低，以及顏色多變化，這些優點都可以讓燈具的外型更不受限制，同時燈具也不會因為過於創新的造型而必須犧牲光線。
As a matter of fact, in recent years lighting equipments are gaining increasing recognition and have become a tool for designers to showcase their creative talents. Technology in terms of lighting development has also been met with ground breaking breakthroughs. Recently, LED has become the mainstream in development of lighting equipments; its most significant advantages are high intensity, energy efficient, low heat and variations in color; these advantages have opened up new possibilities in terms of shape design, because light intensity will not be sacrificed due to innovate shape design.
宏觀看之，整體空間建議以間接光來取代直接照明，讓人工光線盡量接近自然光線的柔和自然感，以彌補環境中無法擁有大片落地窗的缺憾；微觀選擇，燈具建議挑選立燈或壁燈來取代弔燈，一般人會誤以為立燈佔空間，但其實弔燈最容易讓空間中的視覺受到阻斷，立燈與壁燈由於倚牆而設，不但無此問題，在小區域的光源控制上更具有靈活的彈性選擇。
Macroscopically speaking, in order to compensate for the lake of large French windows, it is recommended to replace direct lighting with indirect lighting, and make artificial lighting as close to the softness of natural light as possible. From a microscopic point of view, floor light or wall light should replace ceiling light. It is a common misconception that floor light occupies more space, because ceiling light actually interferes with the visual in a room space. On the contrary, since floor light and wall light is situated close to the wall, there is minimal visual interference and has more flexibility in terms of lighting control in small areas.
