Green building aims to minimize the environmental impact of structures throughout their lifecycle—from the design stage to everyday use. One of the key components of this process is smart and efficient lighting design.
The integration of natural daylight with advanced artificial lighting systems allows for a significant reduction in electricity consumption, while maintaining visual comfort and supporting user health. Within the framework of green building, efficient lighting involves the use of energy-saving fixtures (such as LEDs), motion and daylight sensors, intelligent control systems, and comprehensive energy management platforms.
High-quality lighting design helps reduce carbon emissions, contributes to higher scores under Israel’s Green Building Standard 5281, and delivers a more pleasant, efficient, and healthier experience for building occupants.
The bottom line: good lighting is not just about appearance—it's an essential part of a holistic sustainability strategy.
