Based on technology developed in collaboration with NASA to support the natural circadian rhythms of astronauts living onboard on the International Space Station, the Good Day&Night solution enables users to easily change between focus-enhancing and sleep-enhancing spectrums. The luminaire is controlled via a standard wall switch, or by a wireless switch accessory. Mounting kits are available for retrofit and new construction, providing living spaces with energy-efficient, circadian lighting for both day and night in any area of your home or workplace in a sleek, functional design.

“The new Good Day&Night Downlight delivers on the company's promise to engineer lighting solutions that provide peak visual performance and biological benefits,” Khim Lee, President, Lighting Science said. “Our human-centric lighting portfolio is leading the global shift in how lighting is applied in residential and commercial applications – our new products are at the forefront of the circadian lighting revolution.”

The first commercial installation of the Good Day&Night Downlight will be in New York City at Manhattan’s new luxury condominium development, Gramercy Square. Partnering with MNDFL, New York City’s premier mediation studio, the team worked collaboratively to create special wellness-focused amenity spaces. The downlight will be installed in the meditation room, and in several shared areas, offering residents healthy, biologically-balanced light.

“At Gramercy Square, integrated wellness is supported through a multi-dimensional approach to programming and meaningfully considered sensory experiences in our homes, gardens and amenities,” David Bistricer of Clipper Equity said. “The partnership with Lighting Science naturally aligns with our mission to contribute living innovation inspired by nature, connectivity and a healthy environment. We are proud to be among the first luxury condominiums to fully incorporate their Good Day&Night Downlights – let there be light!

The Good Day&Night Downlight is available for purchase July 11, 2018 at https://www.lsgc.com/collections/biological/products/good-day-night-led-downlight. For additional information on LSG's technologies and products, please visit www.lsgc.com

Sunlight, UVB and Vitamin D – Human Centric Lighting Beyond Melanopic Stimulation

by Ir. Rémy C. Broersma and Dr. Ir. Marcel P. Lucassen, Scientists at Signify Research Eindhoven UVB radiation initiates vital processes in our body, one of which is the production of vitamin D in the skin. It is well known that over-exposure to the sun may bring a risk. Less well known is that the same is true for insufficient sun exposure due to our indoor lifestyle. In Part 1 of this article, we first describe the scientific understanding behind vitamin D. In Part 2 we describe how artificial light can be enriched with a safe, low dose of UVB, to supplement natural vitamin D production in the skin. Not too much, not too little.

Light in the Service of Health – Bringing the Science of Light and Health into Everyday Life through Evidence-based Communication

Light does far more than let us see. In this episode of the LED professional podcast, Manuel Spitschan and Laura Kervezee, co-chairs of the Light for Public Health Initiative, explain how light acts as the master regulator of the body’s internal clock: it synchronises our physiology with the day outside, shapes mood and alertness, and times the release of melatonin, the hormone that governs sleep. The science is settled enough to act on, so the initiative has distilled it into 26 consensus statements on how light affects the body and well-being, written as practical, evidence-based guidance for individuals, employers, schools and cities. A compact 14-minute briefing on why good light is a public-health question, and what to do about it. Based on the authors’ article in LED professional Review #112.

deLIGHTed Talks #8: Good Light – Good Sleep

Full recording of deLIGHTed Talks #8, held online by LpS DIGITAL on 24 April 2025 (91 minutes). Dr. Renske Lok (Stanford University) shows that bright light during the day deepens nighttime sleep, reduces nighttime awakenings, improves sleep efficiency and lowers next-day sleep inertia. Dr. Jeffrey Hubbard (University of Lausanne / EPFL) compares how light and darkness drive sleep and wakefulness in nocturnal mice and day-active Sudanian grass rats. Chronobiologist Dr. Virginie Gabel, founder of Clock&Me, moderates the session and the discussion on what the findings mean for lighting design.
