Setting the Mood with Light and Design
You can choose the perfect colour palette, furniture and finishes, but without the right lighting, a workspace can still feel like it’s missing something.
Lighting has the ability to change how we see and experience a space. From warm and inviting to bright and energising lighting can completely change the atmosphere of a room.
Making the Most of Natural Light
Before introducing artificial lighting, it’s definately important to consider the natural light already available in your workspace.
The position of meeting rooms, partitions and furniture can all affect how daylight travels through an interior. Glazed partitions are a great way to create seperation without blocking light.
Different Spaces Call for Different Lighting
There’s no reason every area of an office should look or feel the same, and lighting can help create a change in atmosphere as you move through the space.
Focused areas may benefit from brighter, more practical lighting, while breakout areas and informal meeeting spaces can use softer light to create a more relaxed setting.
Reception areas can use lighting to make an immediate impression, while feature pendants can give canteens a more welcoming feel.
More Than a Finishing Touch
Lighting can easily be viewed as one of the finishing touches to an office fitout, especially feature lighting and smaller lighting accessories and lamps, but the best results come when it’s considered much earlier.
