The purpose of Light Design is to introduce lighting professionals to the principles of quality lighting design. These principles, related to visual performance, energy and economics, and aesthetics, can aid designers in providing high-quality lighting for a wide range of interior and exterior lighting projects.

The text is divided into four parts:

1. Light Human Needs describes the principles and technical background involved in designing lighting that satisfies vision and visual comfort needs,

2. Light Economics Environment deals with economic and environmental factors related to quality design,

3. Light Architecture addresses lighting the built environment, and

4. Light Application presents an updated and excerpted portion of the IESNA Design Guide, introduced in the IESNA Lighting Handbook, 9th Ed.

Supplementing the Design Guide are questions that provide a checklist of critical issues to lighting projects and an applications guide. Numerous sketches and photographs, glossary, and end notes that reference other technical papers and IES publications are included.
