How to Use Lighting Design to Transform your Home

Fogleman connects technical lighting concepts with developing a scheme for a room. The course moves from understanding light into planning its use and evaluating visual effects. It provides a framework for deciding the role of a fixture or light source rather than selecting every lamp only for its appearance.

What you will learn

• Review introductory lighting terminology
• Develop a layered room-lighting concept
• Compare light choices against a design goal

Who this suits

Useful for a homeowner or developing designer who wants a focused lighting course and can work through the activities using a real or fictional room brief.

Before you enroll

The provider asks for paper, writing tools and printer access for resources. About two hours and 12 minutes of video are listed, updated September 2025. This is lighting-design education, not electrical-installation training. Verify current product specifications and use appropriately qualified professionals for technical installation or building-compliance decisions.

Udemy offers paid purchase or subscription access depending on the current course and region. Paid teaching courses provide completion certificates under Udemy’s policy. Check current access terms and any separate software or material costs before enrolling.

Put it into practice

Draft a lighting concept for one room and label the intended role of each source. Identify what can be evaluated visually and which electrical or technical questions require a qualified professional before implementation.
