The system further includes a light control module configured to determine at least one optimal lighting condition for the light source based, at least in part, on the object attributes, wherein the optimal lighting condition is configured to enhance the appearance of the object illuminated by the light source while maintaining the overall appearance of light within the environment. The light control module is further configured to adjust the spectral composition of the light source based on the optimal lighting condition.
