Whatever we are dreaming results, we can, before that, starting to design, understand with the AI, creating realistic lighting scenarios, whatever is that lighting is that you are planning. People can be that is, understand much more and they can zoom around inside. Whenever we are looking to that picture how we want, is that feel to that person? It is more or less. Is that creating that drama? Whenever you are showing that is the client. They are like oh, I want to do that is imagination about this thing. Can you do one more render about this? So it is that much more taking time with the lighting system. If creating is a much more accurate, for example, if we can establish like light levels, accurate with the lighting, lighting design, that will be that much more understandable for the future.

Hello everyone. My name is Melike Özden from Design Brilliance. I have a principal design, working in Design Brilliance almost five years and over the 10 years I am the lighting design sector and today I will explain to you a lighting design of that future. If we're going to start to this thing like which kind of that topic? I will explain to you. First of all, that is a virtual reality, which is that every time we are hearing we are system augmented reality and for the future, how does it will be helpful for our presentation and how helping is afforded that lighting design system. And nowadays, everywhere we are hearing about that is the AI for every single things. Of course, the lighting design and lighting systems also is very useful for the AI systems. I will show how and which kind of tool. Much more compatible whatever work we are doing.

Some of today's place architects already started about the metaverse architecture. So parallelly, lighting design also is following this kind of designs and blockchain. It is very less known about that. Whatever this topic I will explain, but blockchain is also future. I think is that we'll be creating a much more difference about. Is that following? Is that our data and our projects and digital events? Which kind of, is that system already that we are using, without note that name, digital events. So I will explain that. All those points to you. So, first, if we are introduction about it, virtually about the future. So again, ai is not about any more future, it's a nowadays we are using, but for the future it will be definitely much more accurate about the lighting systems, about the lighting systems and people even started about creating without any production, without any camera, creating even some filming video and definitely whenever these systems will be more and more accurate about that lighting. So and of course, that for the future, digital TV I will explain that more and more for that next slides, but for that lighting simulation, digital TV, it's a bit more important because whenever we are collecting, is that any data, and about that is lighting design, it will be that is afforded future won't be created that any surprise on the site and when we are starting that project, it won't create any kind of mistakes because all those things that I create, creating is from the beginning. A couple of that is a project that I work with and that project is finalized with Digital Tivins and after six years they will really starting.

Is that all the buildings creating that buildings, of course, the VR, some of that simulation I will show to you and how we can show to our clients. It will be how to that, touching about our emotions. I want to explain about that, touching about our emotions. I want to explain about that and we are AI about. Is that so much integrates nowadays, and when we are creating some of the art piece about that lighting system or some of the lighting components, we are mostly using that AI. So this image, also created by AI and we can see here, is that I give you that basic words about that. What I want from by AI and we can see here that I give that basic words about what I want from that AI, basic, some art for the room and they are very nice as they created something.

It can be that it is executed or not we never know, but some kind of that inspiration can give to us that even the AI of course the predictive lighting analyze can also that create. For example, sometimes when we are thinking about some kind of the super upper design we have to know about that is what is that result will become and whenever is the result? It is that, like, whatever we are, dream of results we can before that, starting to design, understand it with AI. Yeah, and virtual reality. I want to talk a little bit. What is that virtual reality? So, virtual reality is that whatever world is that we are living in, it's completely creating another digital world and we can live, we can be active, we can do something in that world. So what about that? Lighting can be created for us. So, creating realistic lighting scenarios it's a main time when we are trying to explain something to our clients. Sometimes that showing is that render even won't be. That is not enough because, as a lighting especially, we want to show something. But cladding or something, some mistake can be happen. But when using is that VR system you can that make to, that touch to emotionally on that lighting, so people can be that is that see that lighting, lighting effects and how much is that? Even lux level? Some of the test systems that are going through right now and I will explain that next slide. And, of course, is that like whatever is that exactly same building or same kind of design when we are using users that will be much more that understand. Okay, this is at my house or this is at my office and whatever is that lighting is that you are planning. People can be that understand much more and they can zoom around inside and for that, if the AI is the sum of that, how we will do, how we will use it, that can create things.

I created some of the examples. I asked that AI basic question, like room with the neoclassic styling and with the warm light chandelier above the bed and good artwork lighting. So only I give this a distinct so you can use that, extend this thing more Made on the corner. You want is some floor lamp or something else. You can use that extra and it's created as some of that option to me. Like it might be like that, it might be like this.

So which kind of that emotion and which kind of is the touch feeling you are expectation from the AI? It is a different, different option creating to you. Or, for example, I give to AI again some living room, contemporary Nordic style and with the spotlighting during the night, the night. So AI gives this result to me which is feeling much more in the Nordic from the outside, even in the auroras we are seeing here, and night time that I give is the image was about really night time and how that is the warm feeling which kind of that lighting effect is giving. So it is creating. It is, again, not so much accurate, because when we are seeing to hear, some of the parties are not really integrated, but for the future, I think, is that it will be much, much more uh created.

But again, is that what we are whenever we are looking to that picture? How we want is that feel to that person? It is more or less, is that creating that drama? And um, I want to show that, um, we are about that. Which kind of is the things we can do? One of the example project I work about this thing. This is in berlin, noe, so it is one of the memorial, uh, basically this memorial about that.

When Berlin is at all time on the war time, people is getting about that pain on that, so many people is dead and we know, is that all the story when we are this event statue about, is one of the woman and um has that, uh, own child. Is that that? And it is about the showing. Is that pain, basically, and she's that crying, um, so, with that lighting, what we want to that create is, at least for that night night images that like showing to us. Is that how emotionally like feeling, sadness and uh, how that creating is that person? That which kind of emotion that feeling is that time? Because everything is a stop. Your child is that, and it is really a bad situation.

And whoever is using to this thing they can see which kind of that image can be surround onto that room. And, of course, you can do that different options too. This option is that coming from that much more like fire, because war integrated with that fire and using is that which kind of warm color and like little bit much umber. So for replicate about it is whatever fire feeling and creating is some of that to react to this tattoo. So this is, for example, basic project, but it is that showing is how that VR can be touched, because this time I can see which kind of that product or how I place it and room and ceiling. I can completely understand that.

What's happening that year? Yeah, and I have recognized enough that, like Berlin University, so I've been to there also and I think that is really what. Which kind of is that VR integrated things they are doing. So they placed it onto that roof, some daylight receptors. So how much is that daylight? Is the coming day inside. It is calculating and it is a created that VR system. They are creating Whatever is that image creating on that sky and environment. They are calculating exactly the same lux level and same kind of the sky image they are creating on that VR and there are some characterization about that is which kind of is a daylight situation happening on the dead year inside and with the dead VR whoever coming? Is that they are feeling really about open the sky somewhere and seeing that all those sky situation and different characterization even is that we can see here, is that like over sky and open, clear to the system so you can directly feeling like it's that first user about it.

And when we are looking, is that like another thing, is that AR? So AR, is that also very, very important. But for the future, I believe, is that much more important for the lighting sector, because what's happening sometimes you are suggesting something, some product or some of that element and whenever you are showing that is the client, they are like oh, I want to. That is imagination about this thing. Can you do one more render about with this? So it is that much more taking time. But whenever we are thinking that ar, it is like how the instagram stories we are creating so many filters. We are showing that ourself like cat or different makeup things, and Snapchat, like, how do that filter? So same thing is that like AR, augmented reality. So with that product, we can place that on the immediately room or whatever place we are thinking and we can display to that whatever we want to show. So this is actually differences about VR and AR. We are basically creating your own world with that inside another kind of that things, and you can feel like you are not inside to that reality right now. You are somewhere else. But AR is exactly the same real world, but placing some object, some logo or whatever you want.

So for the future, again, like I said, with the lighting system, if creating is much more accurate, for example, if we can establish light levels accurate with that AR system, so I think for the users will be much, much nice system. And I want to shift that digital, which is that we are already using that nowadays, creating Autodesk Revit systems and all those things integrated with it. So, as I told you, that whatever project we are creating sometimes starts with that building and execution. Is that after six year, but six year before? Is that I finished that all the project we did, that all the simple detail to the screw detail and all the estimation also same time is done because it is creating is really accurate systems for you before you are starting, exactly all the things calculation, estimation, which kind of material you will use everything is that same time ready and if you want to change again, the same time is that all system automatically will be changed from the drawing, from the detail or from the data estimation. And it is really helpful because earlier what we were doing is AutoCAD we are drawing and whatever detail is that phase is coming is that whenever product select is, we are creating the detail and that detail for another things we are using and after some of that update coming from the architecture, we are creating the detail and that detail for another things we are using and after some of that update coming from the architecture, we are again doing. But now we are not working like that anymore. Of course, some of the projects like that, but Revit and Autodesk building information modeling is much more accurate about this thing. So whatever we are creating is that system. It is directly attaching onto that all the not only lighting other disciplines also like AC systems, piping and wiring, everything is automatically coming and of course the four revit, especially that Lighting. Relaxes created this kind of tool. Same time you are able to understand which kind of deadlock level you are creating. You don't need separate system for calculation. It is, for us, a very nice system. It is creating basically digital data Metaverse again like metaverse suddenly so much explode, but nowadays again it's a little bit loose about so many people's interest.

But whenever internet also comes, so many research it is again so much explode and lose all that interest. But again so much explode and lose all that interest, but again that increase. So I think the metaverse also will become this kind of status and so many actually architectures started to this thing and metaverse architecture they created. So how that is that you are not able to physically to place? It's virtually you are able to do so that place. What is that that you are not able to physically to place? It's virtually you are able to do. So that place. What is that they are creating right now, that architecture designing and that is much more utopic and much more like. Is that not real world kind of thing? But again, like for the lighting also will be parallely, even whenever I'm working with this topic, I notice about that some of the projects they are buying to that land, about that places, like in the metaverse system. So, again, in the parallel, whenever architecture is increasing, our job also will be parallel will be follow. So that's why metaverse also, uh, we are, uh, we will do, and yeah, of course, the understanding is the metaverse also really important? Because, uh, it is, we don't need to follow with the real world rules. Whatever real world creating is that like real buildings or real problems every time that we are getting through. So, uh, metaaverse is a much more easier way for the future and internet is that whenever being is a much more 6G is awaiting right now to people. Metaverse also, adaptation will be great with this thing.

And blockchain system. I want to talk a little bit so blockchain actually, whenever sounds like it's about the money people directly thinking about the Bitcoin, but it is not about Bitcoin, because you can create all things for blockchain. So it is basically creating about your own data and that own data for completely protected and different, different optional. So that's available, of course, that some of the optional the users can buy the clear each, some of the option you can only reach or some of the option you can only allow someone. So this is that for the lighting and lighting system and lighting your lighting data, it will be much more protected. Whatever users in there, especially the automation systems, it will be much more secure. Even the blockchain that works with IOT systems. It is much more automation and lighting control basically, and lighting control basically.

So whatever is that lighting configuration in a virtual environment also it will be. That is a protect and it will be directly reach. About that is the user. So it is not about it. Is that mail system or sending? Is that things? And again, whatever potential lighting design, also, like whenever you are open data, created this kind of things, whatever is the potential, is the coming and other users also can be that do this thing. But this system is not so much we are using these days. This is about, again, like futures will be, create this kind of things, yeah, and when we are coming to that.

Overall that's a conclusion biometric driving, customization. So whatever is that personally you are creating, is that data? So it will be. That is that for the future will be that it is much more protected and much more that creates a virtual environment and, of course, the blockchain how you will protect your data, protect even the money. Also that we can think, whatever you are dealing with that client whenever blockchain is happening, so it will be that much more secure kind of system will become. And, of course, ai, as I told you, that is that, like all the dead artworks and whatever lighting artworks you can create with that ai and, yeah, this is that my conclusion.

Virtual reality about is that I talk a lot and how that lighting design is, that will be that much more understandable for the future. It is that I explained and we can think about like is that how we are telling to that person is that, how do that, emotionally, that or how do that lighting design, that will be happen. It will be that accurate before. That is the creating all that building or creating all that system we can show to that person For the beginning. Is that much more healthy way? I'm finding at least it will be. That is that again. That other systems also. It is getting much more integration. That's why we are doing this video also. And, last of this thing, I want to show one of that video, another AI system. So this is it again for you. I created. There is one of the website, gohome, so I can share the link also. I'm not sure that we are able to share or not.

We are bringing whatever data we have, which is the DWG or whatever PDF, so I selected the PDF, one of that house plan to that here, for example, and we are setting, is that about the scale, which kind of that scale we want to do Generally whenever I'm calculating for taking the door or elevator. So it is that bringing is much more accurate. So some of that dimension I knew it because DWG also beat me and I'm giving that 800 mm, so it is my scale and it is automatically will scaling system and asking to me what is that floor height I want? And here, if you are talking about Z real project, and my project was like 3,500 mm3, 500. And after we are saying the generate floor plan and automatically it is creating all the wall and all the elements, that whatever architecture plan that for you, because sometimes what happens you don't have any 3D model, you have it on the reference image, sometimes on AutoCAD plan, and they are expecting that from to your creating. Is that all the lighting design and lighting planning? And here we can see that how automatically it's created and with all the dimensions also given with that scale and yeah, and you can see that here, how that, uh, it will be that happen and yeah, little bit is that, because I don't want to wait so much I can see that how the perspective also, how the walls we can see, uh, and even we don't need is that create so much? Is that each cladding or something like, how do that other system creating? Yeah, we are seeing that other parts and after, of course, is the whatever we want, is that customized? We can customize all that though a wall, which color we want, which kind of cladding, but we can tell about that, that system.

Also, we want to style something and style some element and it is showing that room-wise and they are directly notice about the bathroom, whatever balcony, but if you are thinking this is not bathroom, you can tell that it's not bathroom. I want the living room, that space, so you can use that change and it is automatically creating some of that option for you. Yeah, it's coming Now I'm selecting that. It is after the bathroom. I'm selecting, like living room style. Yeah, and again I'm bouncing that living room image to me.

Yeah, again, create that bathroom and all that furniture layout also automatically coming. So, of course, some of that furniture you want to change. Maybe sink is not there, you can shift, or you can that too, but anyways, for the architecture it is that really nice system I'm finding and, yeah, when we are selected that, uh, bathroom, I'm shifting this, this status, a little bit. Is that longer way or not taking the time? You can just play that with yourself and, yeah, there is. We can see that furniture layout as well, like which kind of that element we want and we can directly attach, for example, in many, many things is that it's able to create, but this furniture, little customized furniture it didn't understand, but for the future I think that it will be also coming.

And yeah we are seeing that whatever we created and here to map which kind of place we are looking to, that room, which camera angle we can see here, and I see some of the style also the Nordic, let's say, some Mediterranean is there, japanese was there? So many, many. So according to that, it is automatically creating which kind of that styling is that you want? But of course, this is without the lighting, but after all, I want the lighting because for the future, is that we are talking about lighting I'm changing is the soft, soft lighting that I'm giving Some option I created for the AI. Yeah, this is the result. So it is. Of course, it can be the change. Maybe this lighting you can shift, each element you can play with. This is completely for you, but this is one of the AI systems for the architecture design. Many of them, I believe, is there, but which is that I'm using is recently this one.
