Noon and Evening: Two Looks of the Same Room

A Mediterranean modern room in the evening. The sun is already low, almost horizontal, and golden-orange light directly enters from the western arched opening, passing through the entire room and hitting the opposite wall, dyeing the white plaster a warm orange; the light spot is stretched long, and the shape of the opening is clearly imprinted on the wall. The rest of the room is submerged in blue-gray shadows. This is completely different from the appearance at noon when there was only a small patch of white light. Avoid: depicting the light as vertical overhead light at noon, having light evenly distributed without direction, using artificial lighting to smooth out color temperature differences, or keeping the walls pure white unaffected by light color.

一個地中海現代房間在傍晚的樣子。太陽已經低到接近水平,金橘色的光從西側的拱洞直接射進來,穿過整個房間打在對面的牆上,把白灰泥染成溫暖的橙;光斑被拉得很長,洞口的形狀清楚地印在牆面。房間其餘的部分沉在藍灰色的陰影裡。這與正午時只有一小塊白光的樣子完全不同。避免:把光畫成正午的垂直頂光、讓光線均勻分佈沒有方向、使用人工照明填平色溫的差異、讓牆面保持純白不受光色影響。
