Yale University’s Lewis Walpole Library, is a research library for eighteenth-century studies and the prime source for the study of Horace Walpole and Strawberry Hill. The lighting in both spaces integrate lighting with the architecture to meet strict curatorial requirements for the rare books and decorative arts collections and to provide a visually attractive and comfortable environment with modest energy usage.
