Article Abstract:
Lighting designers and manufacturers need to band together to ensure that good architectural lighting is successfully implemented. It is not enough that the designer comes up with an appropriate lighting design, as manufacturers also need to provide clear guidelines for lighting specifications and to have better control over distribution and sales of their products. Only through the coordinated efforts of lighting designers and manufacturers will product design and quality standards be maintained and appreciation of good lighting among consumers attained.
