Transition spaces - corridors, lifts, lobbies and so on-are often ignored, unloved or simply overlit when it comes to lighting design. But if you want to bring real cohesion to your scheme, it can pay to pour a bit of design TLC into these oft-overlooked spaces - and it may be an opportunity to get your creativejuices flowing. How do you judge or evaluate the interior design in a place? Take a hotel for example; do you stand at the entrance, take it all in with one brief glance and think 'nice!' to yourself? Do you instead look at the detailing, the colour choices of the lobby, the material selection of the reception top? Or do you do, as I do, withhold any judgment on the time, care and money that has been lavished on a space until you arrive at the secondary or tertiary spaces, the toilets, the lift lobby?
