In this presentation, the project architect and lighting designer explore the state–of-the-art lighting solutions that were designed to allow maximum healing for patients and visitors at Spaulding Rehabilitation Center in Boston. With extensive interior and exterior areas for rehabilitation, lighting was critical and integral to the process. To meet both LEED and IES recommendations for lighting levels, glare control, and flexibility, a clever and inspired lighting design was created and implemented. This session will enable attendees to:

Identify criteria for lighting for staff and specific patient populations.
Teach options for energy-saving solutions while maintaining required usage lighting levels.
Describe exterior lighting challenges and solutions.
Demonstrate ease of maintenance for institutional users.
