The Need There is a need for a monument to light
Existing research institutions, expositions,
museums, and industry provide piece-meal
information, targeted towards specialized groups There is a need to cultivate integrated design
practices for high performance lighting applications
and improved aesthetics
There are two kinds of light--the glow that illumines, and the glare
that obscures
