Approach Detail
Create dedicated viewing alcove with high-output D65 sources (6500K, Ra>95, TM-30 Rf>95). Use diffuse illumination to avoid sparkle—pure color evaluation. Paint walls neutral gray (Munsell N8). Include daylight-balanced LED desk lamp for hand viewing.
Key Fixtures
GTI ColorMatcher, SoLux daylight lamps, VeriVide light booths, D65 ceiling panels, diffused LED panels from Brightline or Cineo
Designer Notes
RENDER GUIDANCE: Show clean, bright evaluation space with natural daylight quality. Gemstones should appear exactly as they would outdoors on overcast day. Scientific precision aesthetic.
