Architectural lighting style may be field among design, interior style and electrical engineering that’s involved with the look of light system as well as natural light-weight, electric-light bulb, or each to serve human wants . Lighting design using virtual reality is an innovative approach towards electrical system design. The lighting design process and the current problems associated with them are solved by integrating two different branches of engineering along with electrical engineering. The problems associated with current lighting design such as excess illumination, improper arrangement and non uniformity can lead to several problems. This includes energy loss, cost overruns and eye strain. Implementation of lighting design using virtual reality helps to overcome many of these problems. It enable the identification of problems in the early stage of design itself by creating a 3D model of the proposed building and transforming it to a real time visual experience with the help of virtual reality concept. Hence the proper lighting calculation along with this will improve overall lighting design in terms of energy savings, cost ,and aesthetics.
