PodcastIs There Good Light?
Lighting expert Peter Dehoff asks what good lighting is and finds that manufacturers, architects and users each define it differently — it is a process, not a fixed number. Good lighting takes all stakeholders working together, from the client’s first requirements through installation to how the user operates it. Dehoff argues for planning early, integrating lighting controls from the start, and designing for Human Centric Lighting, which accounts for the visual and the non-visual effects of light on comfort and well-being.

Peter Dehoff, an expert in lighting, explores the multifaceted question “What is good lighting?” He highlights that the definition varies significantly among manufacturers, architects and users, suggesting that it is a process rather than a fixed number.
Dehoff emphasises that achieving good lighting involves a collaborative effort from all stakeholders, from the initial client requirements to the final installation and the user’s operation.
