Abstract

Museums are places to create a solid memory between past and present in terms of comprehension and reflection of historical and cultural accumulation. Lighting is an indispensable factor for museums. In most museums and galleries of developed countries, lighting standarts have been developed according to the materials of artefact. Despite the fact that there are studies on museum lighting in Turkey, there are problems in practice. This research focuses on the basic elements to be considered in terms of lighting the artworks exhibited in the museums. Çengel Han Rahmi M. Koç Museum, which serves as an industrial museum in Ankara, was chosen as the execution area. The illumination levels of the exhibited works are considered appropriate for their material qualities, the types of lighting used in the protection context of the lighting in the museums and their application criteria are examined.
