Good lighting, so studies say, can create a more pleasant environment that improves one’s mood, create a sense of place and desired atmosphere, and boost productivity.
But what’s good lighting? The Canadian Centre for Occupational Health and Safety defines it as providing enough illumination so that people can see printed, handwritten or displayed documentst clearly but are not blinded by excessively high light levels (a cause of glare).
