Glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. Offices in Stone range from older suspended-ceiling floors with 600×600 fluorescent panels to newer exposed-soffit spaces where suspended linear LED looks and works better.
Local office lighting in Stone
Reception areas in Stone often need a warmer, layered look than the open-plan floor, with downlights or a feature pendant over the desk.
Many Stone office landlords upgrade lighting between tenancies, because LED with presence sensing helps the EPC and leaves the next occupier with lower running costs.
For Stone premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.
