1. A method of mapping a second light scene onto a plurality of lighting units of a lighting system in a space, the method comprising:
receiving data indicative of a first light scene, the first light scene comprising a plurality of first light settings for the plurality of lighting units, the data further comprising information indicative of which first light setting is mapped onto which lighting unit of the plurality of lighting units,
analyzing the first light settings of the first light scene to determine one or more first light property values of one or more respective first light settings,
analyzing second light settings of the second light scene to determine one or more second light property values of one or more respective second light settings,
obtaining a difference value, the difference value being indicative of a target level of difference between the first light scene and the second light scene,
mapping the second light settings onto the plurality of lighting units based on:
the difference value, the one or more first light property values of respective first light settings and the one or more second light property values of respective second light settings, such that a level of difference between the first light scene and the second light scene, corresponds to the target level of difference, and
controlling the plurality of lighting units to transition from the first light settings to the mapped second light settings and/or storing mapping information of the mapping of the second light settings-onto the plurality of lighting units in a memory.
