Increases of 6-16% in employee productivity (Rocky Mtn Inst)

Imagine working in a poorly lit office. Would you take a nap? I probably would. Here there is some natural light but no added artificial light to ensure that on dark days the employees can see to perform their best work.

Adding task lighting and overhead track lighting provided not only additional functionality but also accent lighting to highlight key areas of the space. There are three types of lighting: ambient, task and accent.
