University of Essex Vector Chandelier

(Vector chandelier) University of Essex recently used by the Vector type chandelier Whitecroft lighting production to create bright and carefree atmosphere lighting. These lamps are installed in the new building area of 26500 square meters, the number of students is 13000, the building became the landmark school and the region, but also create new standards for the design of new teaching building. The lighting design of the building is in charge of the Fulcrum consulting company, lighting is one of the core design of the building, and plays an important role in creating a harmonious learning environment. Building consists of 7 layers, each layer is divided into 14.5 meters wide, 450 square meters amitostigma module. Each floor has 6 large open spaces for students and teachers, but also to create a relaxed learning environment. The space of the building is very flexible, the partitions can be connected to each other or can be divided into smaller areas. Teaching lighting needs an equally flexible solution, which is the reason of school choice Whitecroft lighting Vector series chandelier, each lamp is used in a single power line for 35 watt fluorescent lamp light source. The ceiling of the teaching space uses a highly reflective exposed deck, which can play a role in indirect reflection. The multifunctional Vector series lamps can achieve different proportion of inherent space directly or indirectly in different lighting needs, the University of Essex, these lamps are used to provide 70% and 30% upward downward lighting lighting. Fulcrum consultant Bea Etayo said: "a greater height over equipment can reflect more light from the ceiling, which also makes the space appear brighter, but at the same time it has higher reflection properties of devices will make the space segmentation more difficult, practice has proved that 70/30 is the best ratio of spatial segmentation this proportion, the most conducive to the flexibility of university teaching for lighting needs, but also ensure that the work area reached 350 lumens brightness." The implementation of other lighting teaching area flexibility is through the control of three buildings into a row of fluorescent lamps to achieve, these lamps can be independent switch. This design ensures that the luminaire is not in place and does not affect the lighting level of the working area.
