Lighting that makes employees vital and alert

NatureConnect brings daylight into offices

In a typical office building, approximately 30% of the workplaces are located close to the window. The remaining m2 does not facilitate sufficient daylight, and is dependent on the lighting. Specifically meeting rooms are often located in the center of the floorplan lacking daylight.

 

NatureConnect brings the benefits of daylight indoors, which supports to stay active during the day. It energizes employees, and creates productive areas. ​

Meeting rooms

Meeting rooms

Meeting rooms are spaces where many people sit together on a relatively small space. Nowadays such rooms facilitate technologies to easily connect with employees who are located elsewhere.

 

NatureConnect impacts the feeling of spaciousness in the room, and supports people to stay alert and productive while ensuring the quality of the camera image for online meetings.

Open offices

Open offices

If it is not possible to realize an office floor close to a window, it’s allowed by regulations to design workplaces without daylight, for instance basements.

This yields for both large open offices and small flex-offices. Not having enough exposure to natural light impacts alertness and creativity.

 

NatureConnect creates engaging spaces, and energizes employees.
