Lighting Controls for Higher Education

Universities and colleges require lighting controls that will help deliver dynamic and inspiring learning spaces.

Modern higher education buildings are inspirational places and need solutions that enhance their architectural aesthetic with energy efficient and dynamic lighting, whilst also providing a comfortably lit environment.

Create inspirational learning spaces 

Lighting controls have an important role to play in a modern learning space offering a flexible, technology rich environment with both individual and group workspaces supporting different learning styles. They must be intuitive, simple and logical to the user as well as deliver energy saving benefits such as maximising daylight harvesting and the inclusion of an occupancy strategy, typically absence detection.
