Since the discovery of fire, there has been an ongoing search for better lightingÑlighting that has the preferred properties of longevity, safety, energy-efficiency, ease of handling, and clarity.

Whether youÕre an architect or designer, this all-in-one reference does more than any other guide to help you realize fiber-optic lighting indoors and outdoors and in every type of building. And that makes Fiberoptics in Architectural Lighting a resource you simply canÕt do without.
