This sounds like a great event….I am very interested in the topic. I just perused the new WELL standard which addresses this very aspect of lighting design. http://www.usgbc.org/articles/well-professional-credential-becoming-well-ap?kui=q4i-clUHdU_4BG0X6z2Nnw
By Interior Elements | Oct 19, 2015Thanks, Interior Elements! I'd love to see a discussion on lighting, and I will look this up in the Well standard. We are finding it harder and harder to let go and get to sleep, and I do hear that this is likely affected by certain types of lighting, and some of our electronics. It's hard to "let go" of the day in certain ways, and some of our habits and technologies don't help I am sure.
