Office lighting in Furzedown
In short: glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. Reception areas in Furzedown often need a warmer, layered look than the open-plan floor, with downlights or a feature pendant over the desk.
Local office lighting in Furzedown
Many Furzedown office landlords upgrade lighting between tenancies, because LED with presence sensing helps the EPC and leaves the next occupier with lower running costs.
For office lighting in Furzedown 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.
We cover the whole of Furzedown, including the SW17, SW16 and SW12 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Streatham, Tooting and Norbury.

Rules that apply in Furzedown
Approved Document L (2021 edition, with 2023 amendments) asks for new general lighting to average at least 95 luminaire lumens per circuit-watt, or to use the LENI method. The 2026 edition raises this to more than 105 for work under it from 24 March 2027.
In Great Britain, common T8 fluorescent tubes were caught by ecodesign rules from 1 September 2023 and the mercury exemptions for ordinary T5 and T8 lamps ended on 1 February 2024.
Privately rented commercial property in England generally needs an EPC of E or better, or a registered exemption, and lighting is one of the cheaper ways to improve a rating.
