Light has a positive effect on people’s well-being. Most people feel more energetic and refreshed during bright and sunny summer days. When we are exposed to the right type of light, it helps to align our daily rhythm or wake us up more easily. Light can also influence our daily performance. Especially in the working environment, light can be an important aspect to boost visual performance, comfort, ambience and job satisfaction of employees. This graduation project consists of the explorations of future potentials for the use of lighting in office environments to optimize performance and productivity of employees. Based on extensive research both on current office environments in general as well as the experience of performance at work, several user issues are identified.
