This 65,000 square foot facility required a very focused approach to the design of lighting systems due to the unique architecture developed by EHD&D. Peters & Myer, the lighting design studio of O'Mahony & Myer, was retained by the architect to provide this critical service. The resulting lighting schemes, each carefully integrated with the surrounding architectural character, provide appropriate lighting for each of the spaces individually, while contributing to achieving overall energy-efficiency goals for the building. Each lighting scheme is appropriate to the use, is energy- and cost-efficient, and has a dramatic effect on the mood and quality of the interior space.
