Office lighting in Epping
Glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. For office lighting in Epping 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.
Local office lighting in Epping
Meeting rooms are where Epping offices waste most light. Presence detectors that switch off after a set time pay back quickly in rooms that sit empty for half the day.
Reception areas in Epping often need a warmer, layered look than the open-plan floor, with downlights or a feature pendant over the desk.
For Epping premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.
