It is mainly about arriving at the very conception of artificial light over space and the importance of the designer in the application of strategies to achieve optimal spatial functionality, between the strategies to be used to balance the shadow and light that will be generated inside and adapting it to the envelope. Therefore the importance of these elements will facilitate the transformation of the spaces that these in turn will generate sensitive and perceptible emotions, to improve visual quality and greater sensory appreciation, improving the quality of life of users. The aim of the project will be to take advantage of an artificial resource to the well-being of users in religious interior spaces, achieving a harmony and integration between LIGHT-USER and SPACE, thus being a primordial principle of the interiorist. To achieve the goal of seeing light as a perceptible need that must be included from the conception of design and not just as a spatial adornment. Emphasis is placed on documentary, field and bibliographic research, which determines the factors that affect users' activities and their influence on visual aspects in religious spaces, Therefore, the type of exploratory and descriptive research allows to know, analyze, record and provide timely solutions to real problems of daily life for which the elaboration and definition of a technical light guide is allowed to facilitate the use, it will promote the use and guide future professionals by improving the light aspect in contemporary religious spaces.
