Webinar: How to Incorporate Hot Topics of Today into Daily Design

IES

October 7, 2021

There have always been concerns that impacted our designs such as budgets, schedules, and product availability but today there are many new areas of concern. We are suddenly asked to incorporate circadian lighting, address Coronavirus (or the next pandemic), address concerns for specific individuals who may have medical conditions that make them particularly sensitivity to glare or flicker. Controls used to be a switch or a dimmer on the wall and maybe a 4-scene preset if it was a particularly upscale place. Now we have wireless technologies, PoE, “smart” cities and buildings, digital twins, WiFi and LiFi. Energy use has always been a part or our design but broader topics of sustainability and equity and now being addressed.

How do we keep up? Develop new expertise? How much do our clients care about these topics? Are we really designing for them? With demand for expertise in these areas growing, are our clients changing? Are they asking more from us? We’ll ask these questions and more and get answers from a distinguished guest panel.
