Summary
This paper discusses the design and implementation of Human Centric School Lighting, which varies light intensity and color temperature to improve human health and wellbeing, in a classroom in Malmö.
Categories
Education and learning: The paper discusses the implementation of Human Centric School Lighting in a classroom setting, aiming to improve the learning environment.
Lighting Design Considerations: The paper explores the design of a lighting system that varies light intensity and color temperature to meet individuals' specific needs.
Well-being: The paper discusses the potential of Human Centric School Lighting to improve human health and wellbeing.
Cognitive function and memory: The paper suggests that the lighting system could improve cognitive function by providing activating light in the morning and concentration-supporting light after lunch.
Alertness and performance: The paper discusses the potential of the lighting system to improve alertness and performance by providing activating light in the morning.
