In our opinion lighting, both natural and artificial are what make a space, after all without lighting the space will not function.

This concept is fundamental to all our lighting designs and does not necessarily mean a complex and expensive solution, often the most practical solution is the correct solution.

With the increased understanding of ‘sick building syndrome’ and the increase in people found to be suffering from Seasonal Affective Disorder, it is becoming even more important to provide people, particularity a workforce, with the correct lighting solution.

External lighting can no longer be considered as ‘rule of thumb’ engineering. Sky glow concerns, energy usage and tighter European Standards mean that every external lighting scheme, from an access road to sports stadia needs careful and considered design and engineering.

Whilst we believe that exterior lighting should be provided for the comfort and safety of the users, we also believe that, where practical and appropriate, lighting should provide a visual interest and enhance the night scene.

At Avoca we understand the importance of good, practical and appropriate lighting design and follow the simple concept of providing the right light, in the right place, at the right time.
