Today any approach to a workplace lighting project relies on design criteria that go beyond the mere application of laws and regulations in force.
A key requirement to be considered for a workplace lighting project is flexibility, which takes account of the interaction between people, architecture and light. Light, in particular, should convey a feeling of wellbeing in the working environment, define its identity, enhance the existing architecture, and build variable lighting scenarios. For this very reason, light should be controlled through maintenance-friendly and energy-saving control technologies. Other essential requirements for a lighting project to be successful is visual performance and comfort, the biological effects of light, and the installation of individual control and switching devices.
