Summary: "This Standard sets out basic recommendations for the creation of good seeing conditions in buildings by means of apprriate lighting and interior colour treatmeant. The aim of the recommendations is to create a visual environment in which essential task detail is made easy to see and adverse factors which may cause visual fatigue are either excluded or appropriately controlled. The Standard is primarily intended for reference by those professionally concerned with interior lighting practice. It does not purport to specify the precise types and arrangements of lighting equipment necessary to meet the recommendations: the technical knowledge and experience of a qualified illuminating engineer will normally be required for designing the lighting system best suited to any particular interior." -- p. 7
