“The office is no longer a grid of tables with light levels meeting a required compliance or standard. Agile work is here to stay. Spaces need to be attractive for people to want to return to. They also need to be able to make people feel more connected. Creative lighting design can help to deliver this”. Founder of Lighting Studio MG Michel Goupy and his associate Linsey Walker are expert lighting consultants and designers and join David and Jonathan on this episode of the Tech Simple podcast. 

Michel and Linsey draw on their years of experience working in the hospitality sector to bring warmth and comfort to workspaces. Different types of spaces or areas in the office are designed to encourage or enable different things – whether it be casual chats or team collaboration work or quiet focused work. Good lighting design will help create the right environments to support these different activities. In this episode we learn about how Michel and Linsey approach a project and work in collaboration with all the other members of the wider design team. 

Lighting for video conferencing is very important in the modern office and we learn some key best practices to lighting design. Michel and Linsey also give insights into what is new in commercial lighting technology and how they can be used to continually make better spaces for people at work.
