Used by professor Majid Sarmadi, a light booth in a textile lab demonstrates how color and light interact, with the color of fabric samples rendered differently under various light sources. Clockwise from upper left, the booth displays incandescent, supermarket, daylight and interior design light sources. One of the world's leading textile chemists, Sarmadi holds joint appointments in the College of Engineering's Materials Science Graduate Program and the School of Human Ecology's Department of Environment, Textiles and Design.
