Illuminating Engineering Society’s LD+A Magazine Features Pivotal Lighting Design’s Lessons Learned in Designing Circadian-Supporting Lighting Controls

Studio Leader Lauri Tredinnick's article, "Post-Occupancy Checkup," featured in the Illuminating Engineering Society's magazine, Lighting Design + Application (LD+A), shares valuable insights gained from designing lighting system controls that support patient circadian rhythms.

Referencing Pivotal’s neonatal intensive care unit lighting designs for the University of Kentucky Children's Hospital and the Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center, this feature sheds light on the lessons learned in developing lighting controls that provide circadian support.

The knowledge gleaned from these projects is intended to benefit similar endeavors. From meeting owner requirements and addressing challenges in windowless spaces to executing data collection and finalizing lighting controls programming, these insights offer actionable guidance for design teams that will enhance staff satisfaction and improve patient outcomes.
