Humancentric Lighting Design and the WELL Building Standard

You may have heard of the WELL Building Standard, but do you really know how it relates to how a space is lit? How is it different than code? Than LEED?  In this presentation, we start with an introduction into the WELL Building Standard, why it’s needed, and what it is trying to accomplish.  Then we take a closer look at the 10 overall concepts included in the metrics and how projects are scored. Finally, we deep dive into the LIGHT concept pre-conditions and optimizations.
