Artificial Light in Interior Design and Its Effects on Plants Used
(Konya Technical University Faculty of Architecture and Design, 2012) Aliasghari Khabbazi, Parisa; Hassan Nazhad Damatı, Sevda; Yazgan, Murat Ertuğrul
Light, especially sunlight, plays an important role spiritually and materially in our lives today. In the interior design, artificial light is used since the sunlight is not enough for all dimensions of the space and the activities are limited to the moming hours. All plants need for light as an energy source of Photosynthesis. In the lack of light, nutrient material decreases gradually and plant dies. Plants have an inclination to face to the source of light and only in such a case they become lively and tall. Especially, they leave their old leaves. Mottled plants may turn into green. On the other hand, if the plants are subject to extreme light, they indine to get bumt, discolored and contorted. As a resulting order to grow up the interior space plants successfully, the light requirements and light levels of specific plants must be very well determined. While assessing the light, three reasons, duration, quality and intensity of light must be focused. Main purpose of the interior space landscape design primarily is to create appropriate spaces for the human comfort. For the plants, creating human-centered space is more dominant than space design. Plants produce nutrients and make photosynthesis for further living and for light assistance and chlorophyll. Light is important for the chlorophyll that is necessary for photosynthesis. Stomas on the leaf affect photosynthesis. Stomas let gas exchange on the leaf and they need light to achieve this. While stomas are open on the light they are closed in the darkness. It consists of wavelengths between 430-700 nm. The light comes from the sun is preferred since the light that the plant requires is given from a wide spectrum. In this research primarily interior space landscape design, the importance of light, its aesthetic and functional characteristics will be emphasized. Interior space landscape design criterions will be explained and the characteristics of the sources of lights that are appropriate for the plants' natural light requirements will be expressed. Alsa, while exhibiting plants in the interior space the duration and levels of sources of lights will be determined technically.
Case Studies in the Planting of Structure Surfaces; Roof Gardens

Ever-growing high buildings cause also heating of the air as well as pollution by blocking the air circulation. Decreasing of the soil to be absorbed the rail as a result of concretion leads to fall more burdens on waste water systems of the cities, while increasing the use of water in the cities and industrial areas. Many cities have to struggle with floods due to selection of wrong location and inadequate infrastructure. Our environment, as a result of development of rapidly and irregular of especially our large cities, is covered with concrete and asphalt on a large scale. Use of many green roofs to be taken place in the urban centers as recreation and relaxation areas will be effective in the both economic and more livable formation of the urban environment. Having solved of structural problems in the facility of roof gardens in green structure surfaces in the large cities in terms of static causes giving more and more interest in this green surface type with each passing days. Roof gardens do not take place in only roofs of building where people live. It is possible to encounter with roof gardens in also various locations such as roofs of workplaces, on the buildings of industrial areas, underground car parks, hospital buildings or universities in the cities of the countries where this application is performed. Roof gardens are areas established for their environmental benefits nowadays, while roof gardens were an aesthetic object in previous years and this has generated the concept of "green roor'. In today present situation, they are the type named as "ecological roofs" or "green roofs" and used for ecological purposes, as well as aesthetic purposes of the roof gardens. Green roof is a concept used for buildings to adapt to the environment living. In this study, general design principles related to planting with static properties of infrastructure were explained depending on these green types.
