Reviewing Interior Cladding Under Grazing Light
Grazing light can make wall cladding joints and surface texture much more visible. Review interior finishes under the proposed lighting before accepting a sample seen only in diffuse daylight.
Selection considerations
Build a representative sample area or arrangement with the selected material and adjoining finishes. Review normal approach views and intended seated or standing positions. Include the direction of any texture or pattern rather than approving an isolated small swatch.
Compare the arrangement under the room's expected lighting scenes. Record the lighting and finish references used in the review. Keep the result within its appearance scope; a visual mockup does not establish fire, acoustic or structural performance for the complete wall.
Retain the accepted arrangement and drawing revision for installation checks. If panel size, orientation or lighting changes, revisit the relevant appearance review. Make exceptions visible on the elevations so installers do not reproduce a sample arrangement in a location it was never intended to cover.
Before you specify or order
- Use representative adjoining materials
- Review normal sightlines
- Compare intended lighting scenes
- Record the appearance approval scope

Common question
Why can a joint become obvious after lighting is installed?
Grazing light and viewing angle can emphasise texture and alignment, so review the actual lighting arrangement with the finish.
