More people are working from home than ever before and therefore the lit environment at home has never been more important.

The result will be a home working environment which benefits your staff and your company's image. Consultancy is offered on a variety of levels and would be tailored to your needs.
Advances in science continually filter down into design and we are learning more and more about how light affects those with special needs. People who fall into this category could be those with autism or Aspergers syndrome. This could be for the home, retail or education environments. Currently there is ongoing research into the benefits of daylight to elderly people with regards to neurological conditions, through improved mental health as well as physical resilience. Human Centric Lighting is also being examined as a means of improving sleep patterns and neurological well being.
LED technology has revolutionised how we think of lighting as well as brought a new set of technical challenges. From initially displacing small downlighters, LED has long since been able to replace most other light sources up to High Bay applications. no.7design can undertake a lighting energy audit to determine the correct strategy to maximise return on investment whilst delivering a high degree of lighting comfort and satisfaction with users. The audit is the key first step before moving on to provide full design, whatever your application, be that office, industrial, education or healthcare.
As individuals we do not all necessarily have the same response to light. What some find engaging or stimulating, others find to be uncomfortable. If you have employees who are suffering from glare or other sources of dissatisfaction related to lighting, be assured a solution will be available. Our expertise can determine how to best resolve the problem, thereby ensuring your Health and Safety obligations are met. Just as importantly, being proactive with such solutions improves productivity and the office feel good factor.
