Target accent lux is ambient lux multiplied by contrast; fixture count follows required lumens.
How to use this tool

- Enter measurements in the displayed units and select the choices that match this project.
- Select Calculate / Generate, then compare the outputs with the stated Accent Lighting Planner method.

Example calculation or use case
For a worked Accent Lighting Planner example, use Feature width = 2 m, Feature height = 1.5 m, Ambient level = 150 lux, Accent contrast = 3 ×. The tool then applies this method: Target accent lux is ambient lux multiplied by contrast; fixture count follows required lumens.
