Inspiration with biodynamic light in the offices of feco-Feederle
Paul Feederle, Karlsruhe, Germany
Maximum openness and simultaneously options for retreat – these apparent opposites are united in the new 'IdeenReich' office environment of the feco-Feederle Group. The concept provides an inspiring ambiance for employees, underlined by an attractive lighting solution: LAVIGO free-standing luminaires with biodynamic light from Waldmann.
The aim of the family-owned company was to combine all office workplaces until now distributed over three buildings on the company grounds in a single building. To this end, it designed a new office environment with 36 workplaces on the 700-square-metre second floor of the feco-forum. The office space was planned on the basis of the concept 'Offices of the Future' developed by feco-Feederle, which offers five space modules for team work, concentration, communication, meeting and inspiration.
LAVIGO free-standing luminaires from Waldmann provide a pleasant atmosphere at the 36 workplaces. They are equipped with the PULSE VTL light management system for biodynamic lighting. By simulating the natural change in daylight with time with a suitable colour temperature and illuminance in the indirect light component, the free-standing luminaires support the biological rhythm of employees, thus extending the emotional and ergonomic aspects of light quality for a sustainable improvement of well-being. The illuminance in the direct light component can be set by the user to match his/her needs. The luminaire saves the setting and regulates the artificial light in accordance with the daylight. In addition to that, the free-standing luminaires are equipped with presence detectors. When the employee leaves the workplace, the luminaires are switched off.
