Light & Visual Environments

Lighting design, just like any other building services discipline, can have a dramatic effect on our well-being. Light, be it natural or artificial, shapes our experience and perception of the environments in which we live and work.

Hilson Moran’s lighting designers have a passion for their specialised art. Their mastery of the aesthetic characteristics of light and the related technical issues allows them to deal with the many artistic, practical and legislative facets of lighting that any project presents.

Successful lighting solutions for internal spaces are achieved through careful consideration of economics and flexibility as well as visual factors and technical demands. Analysis of the visual effects of lighting and its interaction with occupants can create high levels of user comfort, essential to an effective working environment.

Daylighting can reduce energy bills and offers psychophysical benefits to a building's occupants, but direct sunlight can over-illuminate, overheat and cause glare. Understanding its potential enables practical guidance to be offered on the design of daylighting and the control of direct sunlight.

External lighting creates attractive nightscapes, enlivens our towns and cities and revitalises our landscapes, but it takes accurate and considerate design to avoid light pollution.

The use of sophisticated computer modelling techniques enables our lighting designers to predict the effects of light and ensure visual goals are achieved.
