The importance of good Public Lighting

Lighting for public spaces is essential for safety, security, accessibility, as well as community well-being. But let's not forget the importance of ambiance. Lighting for public spaces should also connect our spirit, provide emotional well-being, a sense of community, and belonging.

Adequate lighting not only reduces accidents and deters crime but also instills a sense of security and comfort. Well-lit areas create a safer environment, fostering a feeling of protection among residents and visitors alike. Proper lighting not only increases visibility and vigilance, discouraging criminal behavior. It doesn't always need to be high in Kelvins; the warm glow of well-placed lights can evoke feelings of safety and reassurance, enhancing the overall security of public spaces.

Good lighting illuminates potential hazards and promotes a sense of caution, reducing the likelihood of accidents. In addition to enhancing visibility. By illuminating features such as trees, archways, or building details, we indirectly create more luminescence providing additional security while also adding emotional content to the landscape. Well-lit public spaces serve as gathering points for communities, fostering a sense of belonging and connection.

Conscious lighting design not only enhances general accessibility but can at the same time create visual comfort and ambiance. Warm soft lighting can turn public squares and parks into a comfortable and familiar space, where people can mingle and socialize in calm. When people don't have the possibility to walk freely from their house or workplace for security reasons, a range of social issues and safety-related expenses may ensue.

Public lighting serves not only practical purposes but also as a carrier for emotional well-being. By addressing and prioritizing lighting in the public arena, we not only instill security but also encourage a safer and more secure and comfortable space for communities.
