Building Information Modeling

Architectural Lighting Planned
Around the Space

Effective lighting is more than placing fixtures on a ceiling plan. It requires an understanding of room function, architectural form, ceiling conditions, furniture layouts, circulation, materials, visual comfort, controls, and the overall experience of the space.

VDC Point supports lighting design documentation from concept development through coordinated drawings. Our team can work from architectural drawings, BIM models, reflected ceiling plans, interior layouts, elevations, specifications, and project standards.

What We Deliver

Our Lighting Design Services - Key Capabilities

Covering every discipline and coordination need from concept to handover.

01

Architectural Lighting Design

Lighting layouts that complement architectural form, room function, circulation, materials and design intent.

  • General and circulation lighting
  • Feature, accent and decorative lighting
  • Architectural illumination
02

Interior Lighting Design

Interior lighting arrangements coordinated with ceilings, furniture, partitions and interior elements.

  • Residential and office interiors
  • Retail and hospitality interiors
  • Healthcare and public interiors
03

Exterior & Façade Lighting

Exterior lighting concepts for façades, entrances, pathways, landscape areas and building features.

  • Façade and feature illumination
  • Entrance, pathway and landscape lighting
  • Parking and site lighting
04

Lighting Layout & Fixture Planning

Coordinated fixture layouts showing locations, types, tags and other information required for documentation.

  • Fixture locations, tagging and mounting references
  • Ceiling coordination
  • Lighting zones and schedule references
Tools & Software

Technology-Driven Lighting Design

Lighting layouts are developed in Revit or AutoCAD from your architectural backgrounds and reflected ceiling plans, then coordinated with ceilings, HVAC, electrical and structure.
