THE SUPPORTING SPACES
Lighting multi-use spaces
The office areas within a data centre are often busy spaces that require comfortable and controllable lighting solutions.

Meeting rooms and offices have become multi-function spaces. From a global corporate presentation to a sales pitch to a new customer meeting. These spaces need to be flexible and lighting plays an important part. With that in mind strong horizontal illumination is key in order to enhance facial recognition and comfort.
