Abstract

The article considers an integrated approach to creating expressive images of the internal and external spaces of palliative institutions in two forms – with natural and artificial lighting. The priority of natural lighting that meets regional standards is indicated. The article proposes division into public and functional areas and gives special recommendations for their artificial lighting. The attention is focused on artificial night lighting of the palliative care facility building and the lighting design of its territory. The negative physiological, economic, and energy consequences of indiscriminate light pollution are revealed.
