2006 Design Problem
Design a vanity light fixture for mounting at a mirror that is over a sink or countertop in an institutional or hospitality restroom. The light fixture should create a flattering pattern and color of light on the face and body of the user. Consider the issues of sustainable materials, lamp access for ease of maintenance, cost and a design that is adaptable to different aesthetic styles. Incorporate controls integral to the fixture to save energy. Your fixture should use energy-efficient, high efficiency sources, such as linear fluorescent, compact fluorescent, or other sources with excellent color rendering, long life and instant on. The ballast should be integral to the fixture. Self-ballasted lamps and other retrofit lamps are not acceptable. Identify all major components and materials.
