Office lighting in Lichfield
Glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. Reception areas in Lichfield often need a warmer, layered look than the open-plan floor, with downlights or a feature pendant over the desk.
Local office lighting in Lichfield
For office lighting in Lichfield 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.
Many Lichfield office landlords upgrade lighting between tenancies, because LED with presence sensing helps the EPC and leaves the next occupier with lower running costs.
Lichfield is a substantial town, covered by postcode districts WS13, WS14 and WS7. We regularly work across Staffordshire, so access, parking and out-of-hours working are planned before we arrive.
