Whether it is great design, user comfort and wellbeing, achieving compliance, saving on energy bills or ensuring return on investment, we will tailor each scheme to help you achieve your objective.

Great lighting design is a result of knowledge, experience and creativity.

Health and wellbeing.

Good lighting design can directly affect the health and wellbeing of the users in the space. Poor lighting design on the other hand can lead to fatigue, headaches, eye strain and longer term health issues.

Sustainability.

Alongside a longer product lifespan, professional lighting design using the latest LED technology and sensors will decrease the energy consumption of your lighting scheme and reduce environmental impact.

Improving productivity.

An outdated approach to lighting fails to take into account factors that play a major role in the comfort of occupants. Modern office lighting design prioritises the wellbeing of occupants, thus improving productivity.

From award winning office lighting to ambitious architectural lighting design projects, we've done it all. 

We have delivered projects for many different types of commercial properties ranging from grade II listed period properties, brutalist buildings with concrete ceilings, all the way to newbuilds aiming to achieve BREEAM or WELL accreditation.

Frequently asked questions.

What are the benefits of working with a lighting designer?

Its the same benefits as using an architect to design a building, or a mechanical consultant to design your HVAC system. A lighting designer is an expert in their field, who understands all of the recommendations for lighting, and can create a suitable scheme to your specification.

What types of light fittings are available for commercial lighting design?

The world is your oyster! Take a look at our lighting products page to browse a large selection of available options.

How does the design service work? 

Quite simply, we consult on the design requirements, budgets and specifications with you. We create some proposals and once signed off, can continue with a full technical design package. We can even do the emergency lighting design (which is a legal requirement in any commercial project).

How to understand lux or illumination level requirements for commercial spaces?

Design requirements can be complex, and different on every project. Our design calculation packs have an easy compliance check system, to show you what areas comply with the lighting recommendations set out in the specification.
