COLOUR RENDERING: How accurately a light reveals the various colours around the room. Comparing how colours are perceived when illuminated by your light source versus a natural light source like the sun, accuracy is rated on a scale of 1 – 100. This is called the Colour Rendering Index (CRI.)

Both fluorescent and LED bulbs vary in CRI from low 60s to high 90s. We recommend using lights with a CRI above 90.

ILLUMINANCE vs LUMINANCE:
Illuminance measures how much light falls onto a surface. Luminance measures how brightly that light reflects off of the surface.

Lighting designers measure lumens per square foot (often referred to as lux or foot-candles) to determine ideal brightness around a room. Ideal illuminance is determined by a space’s purpose, while attention to luminance can help avoid glare and its debilitating effects.

COLOUR TEMPERATURE: The warmness or coolness of white light, measured in Kelvin.

Warm Light: Anything below 3,500K begins to have a yellowish appearance. This has a calming effect.
Cool light: Anything above 3,500K begins to have a bluish appearance. Great for focus but terrible for rest.
Fluorescents provide warmer, more natural temperature than LEDs, though tunable LEDs are also available.

LIGHTING SERIES:

We all want to save power consumption but how about brightness? How do you make a choice? Well, just remember Watts measure power consumption while Lumens measure brightness.

LED lights put out more lumens using fewer watts. They also last longer and emit less heat.

Lighting can either positively or negatively impact the enjoyment of your space as well as it's utility. Whether it's in your home or office, choosing the right light is important.

This week, we highlight some important lighting concepts to be aware of before designing your next space:
