It requires thinking outside the box for the designers, manufacturers and owners. As a designer, I want to push thing sometimes but I am constrained by budgets and owners without imaginations. As LED's become more readily available and more manufacturers utilize them in existing luminaires as a sort of "retrofit" application, I believe that we will continue to see a slow creep of new and interesting ways to utilize LED's. The demand isn't there yet, but the seeds are planted and will grow soon enough! I think change comes slowly. It requires thinking outside the box for the designers, manufacturers and owners.

There are so many factors involved in it. It raises more questions like it indirect/direct or completely direct? What is the wall/ceiling/floor finish? What are the tasks involved in that particular office? What is the average age of the worker? Is there daylight available? All of these additional questions carry some additional factors. As an example, an office with 30fc at task level but the walls are a very dark color may lend people to believe that the space is darker than it really is. Human perception could possibly be more important than the actual number. Ultimately, each project must be viewed by itself and the needs of the client.

Making use of something that's already in motion is the most environmentally responsible form of generating electricity. There is minimal material needed and no impact on the surrounding area. Really cool! This is brilliant, really. Making use of something that’s already in motion is the most environmentally responsible form of generating electricity.

In those conditions – now NASA confirmed (www.guardian.co.uk) - we could say that darkness is merely a forecast of light’s return to space it previously occupied. Gets a bit more complex with frame dragging, the other half of the relatively theory which could be interpreted to suggest that darkness is a moving target, but there you go – and light shed on a problem with philosophy. Which reminds me of the fact that they eye gains more information from contrast and shadows – degrees of darkness, in a manner of speaking – than it does from light. Makes you think, don’t it?

Another way to look at it: darkness is the void, light interupts the void, but never eliminates it. Light is transient, Darkness, omnipresent. Before light, there was only darkness. The light obscures the darkness, but darkness continues to exist, unchanged. The light passes leaving only darkness in its wake.
