Abstract :
It is shown how compact fluorescent lamps and smaller luminaires using deeper shielding can now meet, better than traditional commercial lighting approaches, the requirements of lighting the newer space configurations and seeing tasks that did not exist a few years ago. Design approaches are shown that will optimize lighting cost and effectiveness in matching the new hardware and the new lighting needs. Luminaire patterns are shown in various room and furniture configurations. Their effectiveness in delivering light into panelled workstations and practical methods of predicting the delivered light are discussed
