The culprit: Too much light. Or too little.
Light is powerful stuff. You don’t want outdoor and indoor light to intrude into your sleeping spaces at night. On the flip side, you need the right amount of natural and artificial light during the day and evening.
The impact:
A small amount of light can disrupt or lower the quality of your sleep. Even a tiny amount of blue light during the hours preceding sleep can throw off your circadian rhythm. During waking hours, too little light, or too much, can strain your eyes, lower your productivity and affect your mood. Too much glare or lighting contrast can strain your eyes and make you tired.
What we do:
We install blackout window treatments that eliminate gaps and block outdoor light. This increases the amount of healthy, restorative sleep you get. We also use lighting systems that control the amount of blue light in your home to promote healthy sleep and wake patterns.
To enhance your day-to-day living, we design task-specific lighting. We lay out rooms and place windows strategically. We select the right surfaces to maximize the light you need and reduce glare. We deploy lighting controls and shading that you can automate and operate remotely. The result is a visually harmonious environment that allows you to relax and recharge your body and mind at home.
