Reducing distracting light near a workspace
Identify the viewing position and the features to illuminate. Aiming and fixture selection can address the intended effect without simply adding brighter light near the glass.
Explain which indoor activity is affected by distracting light. That viewpoint can guide the discussion of targeting and control without assuming a brighter fixture will improve comfort.
Why consider the occupied room's view?
The direct sight of a fixture can be distracting even when the illuminated feature looks attractive outdoors. Brightness alone does not resolve that conflict.
Discuss the affected activity, windows and operating hours before choosing positions. MKB can evaluate aiming and compatible control choices for the selected products, keeping the desired accent distinct from unwanted light reaching the workspace.
Details to include with this request
- Indoor viewpoints
- Outdoor targets
- Existing distracting fixtures
