The Woodland Trust’s headquarters in Grantham, Lincolnshire has become one of the first task-lighting projects in the UK to win a BREEAM ‘Excellent’ certification. Building services consultancy Max Fordham worked with architects Feilden Clegg Bradley Studios to come up with an open design brief for the Trust. They wanted to create an environment that was well lit and energy efficient, with localised control. About 100 iGuzzini Y light floor standing task lights were installed for direct and indirect illumination. Each set of desks has its own luminaire with local manual controls and the working plane has levels of over 500 lux. The overall install lighting load is 17.5W/m2.
