Office lighting in Sedbergh
What we do in Sedbergh: glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. We usually phase office work in Sedbergh over evenings, one zone at a time, so nobody loses a desk while the ceiling is opened up.
Local office lighting in Sedbergh
For office lighting in Sedbergh we design to about 500 lux on desks, as BS EN 12464-1 suggests, and keep glare off screens by choosing the right optics rather than simply adding more light.
Reception areas in Sedbergh often need a warmer, layered look than the open-plan floor, with downlights or a feature pendant over the desk.
For Sedbergh premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.
