up to the ceiling?). And the best way to ensure a bright ceiling is by using direct/indirect lighting systems. Situations where a direct/indirect approach is not possible, due to low ceiling heights, are discussed on page 5051. B. More importantly, LG3 is
As long ago as 1997 BS EN 29241-7 (Ergonomic Requirements for Office Work with Visual Display Terminals) recommended screen testing, to discover the actual glare limits of individual types of screen, but LG3, written four years later, does not recommend this course of action instead it has arbitrarily chosen a fixed upper luminance limit on fittings of 1500 cd/m2. This figure was not chosen on the basis of any genuine research and is already massively out-of-date, as the real figures for different VDT screens in the Table on page 25 show. Some modern screens can now tolerate luminances above 5000 cd/m 2 without causing visual discomfort.
We would argue that in terms of the visual appearance of most office spaces, getting light onto the ceiling is far more important as the large area of the ceiling dominates the peripheral vision. However, ceiling brightness is a luminance issue, not a question of illuminance (is LG3 compliance really going to be tested by engineers standing on desks, holding their illuminance meters
still fixated on lighting for VDT screens rather than people, whereas recent advances in flat screen VDT technology threaten to make this issue a dead duck within two years. Most modern positive (black on white) flat screen VDT terminals are not susceptible to luminaire reflections but in any case they can be easily tested to determine their actual susceptibility.
To avoid gloom, increase the percentage of light on the ceiling far beyond the recommended levels.
Pillars and air-conditioning are two more considerations when designing task area lighting.
6. SLL (CIBSE) Lighting Guide 7 (LG7) Office Lighting Guide
The draft copy of this document is fairly extensive, but few people will find the document of great interest. In fact it is unclear why it has been produced at all, except as a fund-raising measure. LG7 has all the hallmarks of being written by a committee over an extensive period of time for example, all the criteria relating to VDT lighting remain the same as LG3 Addendum 2001. However, there is no mention of EN 12464-1 or EN 29241 and most of the commentary is very basic and elementary. Most worryingly, it makes a recommendation, that

during this process, of lighting quality. This is because lighting control system sellers are, in the main, electrically biased, rather than qualified in lighting. They tend to consider energy as the number one, easily quantifiable target, while issues such as glare, contrast and the psychology of the lit space, do not impinge on their thinking. Zumtobel Staff believes that simply dimming down or switching off artificial lighting, as daylight increases, is an over-simplified approach in fact, in many situations it may be desirable to increase the light output of artificial lighting as daylight increases.
The highly sophisticated blinds used here turn conventional wisdom on its head. When fully open they allow an unrestricted exterior view but with possible glare issues. The compensation for this are the bright interior surfaces.
When the blinds are fully closed the view out is partially preserved and the glare threat eliminated. However, contrary to conventional thinking, ceiling illuminance is increased because the blinds are designed as sun scoops.
We also believe that the provision of blinds should be part of the fundamental lighting design package for any building. While blinds are conventionally seen as part of the architectural design, their relevance to lighting should not be under-estimated. During the day properly designed, light coloured blinds can be used to maximise the advantages of daylight, while avoiding the downside of glare and at the same time, they can preserve important exterior views from inside the building. Particularly in small cellular offices, they also have a vital role to play at night, by acting as light reflectors on one, or occasionally, two window walls, which has a huge influence on the
lit effect within the space. Without blinds, the windows become black holes after dark, allowing a great deal of wasted light to exit the building. Manually controlled blinds are the norm but experience shows that user positioning invariably leads to a chaotic and messy appearance. Electrically operated, automatically controlled blinds are normally outside the scope of ordinary control systems that typically use internal, room photocells which cannot cope with sophisticated requirements. The provision of blinds, preferably properly automated and controlled, is a fundamental factor in the visual comfort of an interior. Yet they are seldom

Dimming the two light sources (or components within a single fitting) gives access to quantity variations, while the separate, selective control of the direct and indirect lighting components can be used to alter fundamentally the directional character of the light. Equipping the luminaires with mixed colour temperature light sources also allows fundamental colour temperature changes, making it possible to balance the colour characteristics of the lighting from warm and homely through to cool and businesslike.

5. Combination Lighting

Combination Lighting is a rather simpler lighting set-up which involves two or more types of luminaire to achieve any lighting effect for example a simple downlight, combined with a perimeter wallwasher. In its simplest form, Combination Lighting could be just bulk switched on/off, or separately switched, or dimmed and the FFR neednt necessarily change.
LUXMATE EMOTION Workspace combines intuitive control and extremely professional use of DALI technology without actuators and dimmers; a specific ACTIVE LIGHT script based on scientific and ergonomic knowhow can be prepared for office lighting.
This novel partial blind system is automatically activated at night and at certain times of the day. The suspended LIGHTFIELD luminaires create very even lighting to the ceiling, walls and closed blinds.
Here the blinds are lowered sufficiently to filter out glare at high angles but allow sunlight to penetrate at low levels, preserving the wonderful patterns and shadows of daylight.

6. Controls

The BCO Fit-out Guide states that lighting controls are a fundamental part of lighting design. The simplest controls provide energy savings and flexibility but more sophisticated systems can be used to integrate daylight in a more genuine way. Measuring incoming daylight and adjusting artificial lighting levels accordingly seems like a simple method of integrating artificial and natural light. Yet user acceptance of this simple technique can be very low unless lighting controls are carefully designed. Most systems employ ceiling-mounted sensors, which measure incident light in the room but they
can be easily fooled, since they measure a combination of natural and artificial light. While changing light levels are desirable, the illogical fluctuation of illuminance resulting from poorly designed sensors is one of the main reasons why daylight control systems are often sabotaged by users. By contrast, Luxmate Professional* daylight systems use a roofmounted sensor which measures the quantity of light, its direction and overall sky brightness, in order to register accurate changes in the amount and quantity of daylight and adjust the lighting and blinds automatically.

1. Lamp Brightness

It is an unfortunate fact that as modern lamp sources get smaller and more efficient, their surface brightness increases this can be a problem with open light fixtures in an office, where a small, but very bright light source can create visual distraction in the field of view. Even in luminaires with vertical louvres, which reduce the sideways visibility of the lamp, the view directly upwards into the fitting can be visually uncomfortable and can often be peripherally glimpsed as a distracting area of brightness what has been dubbed eyebrow glare. This issue of lamp brightness is much more significant in interior spaces, where people are working over a full working day, than in a circulation space or a sales area.
The chart below demonstrates the current range of T16, T26 and compact fluorescent lamps with their recommended brightness threshold zones. If these lamps are used in open fixtures, one should always consider some form of lamp obscuration. In general the brightness of High Efficiency (HE) T16 fluorescent lamps at 15,000 17,000 cd/m 2 are within tolerable limits for direct viewing but High Output (HO) lamps at between 25,00032,000 cd/m2 exceed these limits, while TC-L, TC-D and TC-T lamps are even brighter, at 30,000 cd/m2 up to a massive 70,000 cd/m ,
from Zumtobel Staff include the Aero fitting, with the Eldacon Panel which uses a technique of distributed lamp image, and the Mellowlight range, where the lamp is diffused by a Gridmesh optic. Several other Zumtobel Staff products have refractor accessories that can be added to mitigate the problem of using HE T16 lamps. For this reason we would unequivocally recommend specifying an HE lamp, rather than its HO equivalent, in any luminaire offering a direct view of an unshielded lamp from any position in the workplace. In 600 mm modular luminaires this is always an option. In addition, there are energy saving benefits as their name suggests, HE lamps trade lower light output for higher energy efficiency (in fact, energy efficiency is about 15 % greater for these lamps). However this is not always possible see page 41.
depending on wattage. Of course, many of the latest luminaire concepts have human visual comfort as the highest priority and therefore have some form of integral lamp obscuration device. Examples

MPO technology incorporated into the LIGHTFIELDS range overcomes the lamp glare of even the latest light sources, with little effect on the LOR.

This very successful combination lighting scheme by Atco Consultants, uses both suspended and wallmounted versions of the OREA direct/indirect luminaire. The fittings are equipped with SLC (side light coupler) Waveguide optics to reduce the luminance levels of the fittings above 65. The end result makes for a very successful, visually comfortable workspace, despite the lack of daylight.
An interesting ceiling design and associated lighting solution at Lincoln University. The continuous runs of CLARIS direct/ indirect luminaires are suspended horizontally from a sloping ceiling which breaks out into a skylight. The overall effect is very pleasing despite the close offset hot spot on the ceiling at its lowest point. www.zumtobelstaff.com/claris www.zumtobelstaff.com/waveguide
This minimally styled CAD-intensive designers studio, at Arup Associates, has been appropriately fitted out with long, continuous runs of the OREA direct/indirect luminaires. The fittings express excellent design synergy with the interior architecture, echoing the square columns and dropped, linear ceiling section. The light distribution on the ceiling has good diffusion, with a gradual change of luminance, to avoid disrupting the visual calm of the space.
Buro Happolds own offices exhibit considerable design ingenuity and make use of the ultimate office luminaire on the market AERO with an Eldacon Waveguide panel, which works to distribute the lamp image, in order to minimise glare.

It is rare to find any single project in which a wide range of lighting design approaches can be used. Here is the office mezzanine floor, with a central atrium, at Buro Happolds offices, which is treated in a very interesting manner. While extensive daylighting is central to the scheme, here it is supplemented, unusually, by COPA high-bay fittings suspended above the double-height zone. User and Consultant Buro Happold

CLARIS II/VOLARIS

The CLARIS II and VOLARIS surface-mounted, wall-mounted or pendant luminaires represent the latest step in a long line of successful louvre-based luminaires for a wide range of workplace lighting applications. CLARIS II has an independent, clear and unobtrusive appearance, with its geometric, symmetric lines. VOLARIS offers the same lighting features as its sister model, but its curvaceous, flowing shapes and soft, gently rounded appearance offers an alternative architectural aesthetic.
Both luminaire ranges use the latest cell louvre technology which set new standards for this type of luminaire. For the first time in linear fluorescent systems, the louvre has been manufactured from injectionmoulded materials, offering the homogeneous 360 Bivergenz terms of light distribution and lighting effect, CLARIS II and VOLARIS out-class luminaires with larger louvres. They both offer efficient, all-round glare control, making undesired reflections on screens and displays a thing of the past and allowing maximum flexibility in luminaire configuration.
CLARIS II and VOLARIS come in four main variants: Darklight Specular Louvre version, for particularly onerous VDT applications; Matt Comfort Louvre version, with its innovative micro-textured embossed finish, which gives a high diffusivity to the louvre surface, offering a very soft image of the lamp, even at high viewing angles. Despite the matt finish, the product meets the 1000 cd/m2 limit at 65 and is the preferred choice for general VDT office lighting. Matt Comfort Louvre with Dealer Room refractor, specially

With its rounded polar curve showing slow rate of change of intensity, MELLOW LIGHT IV epitomises good office lighting. The often conflicting needs of architectural quality, visual comfort, daylight integration and control of screen reflections can all be reconciled through the unique qualities of MELLOW LIGHT IV. For example, the main visual surfaces, such as faces, walls and furniture are better lit by MELLOW LIGHT than by conventional louvre fittings so that the overall impression of interior brightness is enhanced, without added energy consumption. The grid-mesh diffuser sets a new trend for style that leaves behind perforated diffusers. The
grid-mesh diffuses the lamp, yet integrates with the secondary chambers to bring about an attractive luminaire whether it is switched on or off. Design: Studio & Partners

The novel feature of the latest MELLOW LIGHT model, designed by Studio & Partners, is the primary light chamber so that the fitting is enclosed, to stabilise the lamp operating temperature, coupled with the secondary light chamber concept, which gives visual depth to the luminaire. A degree of direct lighting is available from the primary chamber, using a variety of devices, including grid-mesh and SYNTO louvre. One of the most useful characteristics of MELLOW LIGHT IV is its flexibility luminaires can be arranged wherever you like in the room
and its even, omni-directional light output allows arrays to be under or over spaced, without adverse effects on uniformity. Due to the higher lamp output of versions using the TC-L lamp, they consequently have higher brightnesss (see published Lmax values).

Free-standing Luminaires

Variable, adaptable lighting solutions
Flexibility in the office requires variable, adaptable lighting solutions which can be personalised to cope with the changing needs of individual users or with frequent reconfiguration of the workstations. For many installations, free-standing luminaires may be the favoured option. Research has also shown that by giving office workers control over their local environment their productivity will increase. Zumtobel Staff offers a number of free-standing variants of its existing ranges, as well as some specific free-standing models offering a range of distinctive features.
programmed individually by the user or controlled through four pre-set scenes. Its daylight sensor and presence detector and timer unit ensure the highest quality illumination of the task area at all times. As its name suggests, the FLEXOS free-standing direct/ indirect luminaire, designed by Da Costa & Wolf, takes the principle of flexibility in workplace lighting one step further. The

ID-S FLEXOS

Commissioned by Zumtobel Staff in 1987, from Italian designers Sottsass Associati, the ID-S range has since become a design classic due to its clear, simple lines and its versatile technical performance. The luminaire incorporates a safety diffuser made of either 4 mm heat-resistant tempered silicate glass or ceramic glass, and has a 12 mm glass frame with luminous edges, integrated into the head. Featuring a range of tungsten halogen and metal halide lamps to produce a substantial indirect uplight component, the ID-S can provide a pleasant, warm lighting ambience. The adjustable matt anodised aluminium reflector in the head of the luminaire can be used for effective task lighting.

With its slender luminaire head the free-standing direct/indirect KAREA luminaire model (and matching wall light) has slim, geometric lines and is made from simple, elegant materials. The direct light component is controlled by a perforated metal optic, ensuring pleasant light distribution in the task area. At the same time, the integral SensControl lighting manage-

This means that a single luminaire, with one base and one electrical connection can illuminate up to four desks highly efficiently and according to individual requirements. Even the wall light version can be adjusted in two axes, offering a variety of options for optimum vertical illumination or mounted on the top of partition walls or inclined ceilings. FLEXOS comes with a choice of two optics a louvre optic, guaranteeing a large direct light component on the working plane or a perforated steel optic, with a reduced direct lighting component, to ensure

LIGHT FIELDS-S

With its slender luminaire head, uncluttered lines, expressive materiality and elegant looks, the LIGHT FIELDS-S free-standing luminaire is sympathetic to its surroundings. In terms of lighting quality, the free-standing model shares the same unique micropyramidal optic as all other versions of LIGHT FIELDS. This guarantees brilliant, glare-free lighting and a high output ratio. The asymmetric indirect component provides pleasant general lighting and brightens up the depth of a room. The light provided by LIGHT FIELDS-S can be individually adjusted to suit both mood and taste, using the integral SensControl lighting Management system, which can be

The SensControl system means that lighting levels can be optimised individually, depending on the task, ambient light and users requirements. The user can choose between automatic and manual control in addition to a pivoting PIR sensor which automatically switches off the luminaire whenever no movement is detected in the task area during a set period (up to 15 minutes). Depending on the luminaire version, the control system is set and operated either via buttons or via an LCD display.
The LANOS luminaire has an altogether softer, less angular appearance but still provides a high output direct/indirect light distribution. Sophisticated controls are also built-in to LANOS for manual or automatic control.

VPI Wall Lighting

All current codes of practice for lighting primarily refer to the notional horizontal working plane. This has tended to popularise the use of regular arrays of luminaires optimised to light a plane that none of us actually see. In fact, in almost every building we enter its the walls that dominate our vista. So, in every main interior space we would recommend the selection of at least one wall for a specialist lighting effect. Here we offer a sample of different wall lighting approaches, from wall-washing to scolloping. While wallwashing is a fairly well established technique, it is often not done well; on the other hand, wall scolloping usually happens without the designer intending it and usually has a messy, unplanned appearance. At Zumtobel Staff Lighting in the UK we have taken up the cause of wall lighting and developed the concept of VPI (Verti-Planar Illuminance, to give it its full name). This is a major design aid to the art of lighting walls. Here we present the VPI spectrum in a shortened form, with advice on simple offset and spacing. The brochure Lighting Up the Wall: a VPI Design Guide is available in english.
