Key features of commercial lighting

So what are the key features of commercial lighting? Well, there are several, including:

  • Functional lighting- lighting a space suitably for general use, and to complete certain tasks is important for any commercial property, from an office block to a retail store. This will involve a blend of direct and indirect lighting, as well as simple ceiling down-lights, and specific wall lights.
  • Effective task lighting- for some companies and businesses the specific task lighting is just not in the right place. This may be because of an internal reshuffle, after the initial installation, or simply down to poor design. One of the key features of commercial lighting should always be effective task lighting as this can make a big difference to your employees and their productivity.
  • Lighting for effect- for your reception space or hallway, you might choose to use accent lighting. This is lighting designed to provide a specific effect, putting the spotlight on a specific area or feature in your building.
