Human Centric Lighting

The Lighting Inclusive Spaces CPD covers, the basics of the science behind human centric lighting and lighting principles. The CPD will educate on inclusive design from lighting for neurodivergent spaces, to visual impairment. Looking at regulations and how to light in application.

The CPD "Qualitative vs. Quantitative Lighting" explores the key differences between the two approaches to lighting design. Quantitative lighting focuses on measurable aspects such as illuminance levels, ensuring spaces meet required standards. Qualitative lighting, on the other hand, prioritises user experience, visual comfort, and aesthetics, enhancing functionality while creating energy-efficient solutions. The session covers energy-saving benefits of qualitative lighting, emphasising its role in reducing consumption without compromising quality. Practical examples "In Application" will demonstrate how balancing both approaches can optimise lighting performance in real-world scenarios. This CPD is ideal for professionals seeking to integrate efficiency and user-centric design principles.

The Vertical Illuminance CPD, covers the perception-orientated lighting philosophy of American architect and lighting designer Richard Kelly (1910-1977), its implications on the design process and a demonstration of its use as a simple communication tool. It further demonstrates how these principles are used to produce vertical illuminance, how vertical illumination impacts a space and the advantages, Perception, Architecture, Efficiency.

The Workspace Lighting Trends, Responsive Design CPD covers the role of lighting in new workspace trends, how lighting can help save energy and qualitative lighting solutions.
