Dynamic Lighting in ofces

BackgroundThe VUB bank is one o Slovakias leading nancial institutions and

has its headquarters in a new 22-storey building in Bratislava.

The bank employs over 3,500 people at its 207 retail branches,

35 corporate branches and 11 mortgage centers across the country.

In 2006 it was named Slovakian Bank o the Year.

The ChallengeThere is a growing recognition that human actors like well-being

and motivation are becoming increasingly critical to the success o

knowledge-based enterprises like the VBU bank. Lighting can play avitally important role in this respect.

The SolutionDaylight the orm o light with which we are most comortable is

never constant. It changes in level and color temperature throughout

the day, aecting our emotions, moods, perception and perormance.

With Philips Dynamic Lighting we can bring the dynamic character o

daylight, with its seamless changes in brightness and warmth, indoors.

Dynamic Lighting was installed in the VUB banks Executive oces

and in the adjoining meeting rooms, in the orm o Savio recessed

and additional ree-foor standing luminaires.

BeneftsDynamic Lighting utilizes the dynamic characteristics o daylight

(changes in the level and tone o white light) to enhance peoples sense

o well-being. It also gives them control over their own environment,enabling them to set the lighting to suit their individual preerences

or the task in hand, e.g. working at a computer, reading, meeting, etc.

This has an inspiring eect.

Inspired by the dynamicso daylight

The new lighting helps me concentrate better

and makes me eel more inspired.
