ERCO Oceania Events

ERCO presents education programs in indoor and outdoor architectural lighting, with the option of earning multiple Formal Continuing Professional Development (CPD) points per year.

Workshops, Webinars and Project Tours cover various lighting topics, explaining the importance of qualitative lighting design and the techniques that can be used to reduce energy consumption and light pollution.

The available topics all introduce the perception-orientated lighting approach conceived and practiced by American architect and lighting designer Richard Kelly (1910-1977).

NOTE: 3-hour Workshops = 3 Formal CPD Points | 1-hour Events = 1 Formal CPD Point

Language of Light

Covers the perception-orientated lighting philosophy of American architect and lighting designer Richard Kelly (1910-1977), its implications on the design process and a demonstration of its use as a simple communication tool. Language of Light also covers recent developments in lighting technology, with a focus on how to provide the optimum balance between efficiency and visual comfort. This topic allows you to feel how different lighting effects can influence user experience and the perception of interior spaces in a flexible and interactive workshop.

Human Centric Lighting

Building on the Language of Light (Ambient, Accent, Scenic), this topic explains ERCO’s approach to Human Centric Lighting. Human Centric Lighting brings together the work of lighting pioneers Richard Kelly, William Lam and George Brainard to develop the foundational elements of Architecture, Activity & Atmosphere (AAA). This chapter expands on light's ability to influence the Visual, Emotional & Biological requirements of humans, creating environments in which they can perform and thrive. Human Centric Lighting is an attitude to planning rather than a technology, which explores a simple approach in delivering a more sustainable outcome.

Light for Offices

The debate about attractive, stimulating safe and flexible offices is in full swing, but much in an office is still observed quantitatively, including the lighting. Light is essential in knowledge-orientated work environments that focus on people; light contributes to the quality of the room and supports dialogue and concentration. Discover how lighting effects influence the perception of workplaces. Discuss technical and commercial issues with a demonstration of the flexibility of digital lighting and wireless controls.

Light for Public Buildings

This topic considers how to successfully light community buildings and spaces in which people move, gather and exchange information. We demonstrate qualitative lighting techniques for buildings such as public administration centres, educational facilities, libraries, conference centres, government buildings, transport interchanges and airports. Lighting can provide orientation, enhance architecture and support social needs. Light assumes much more than just functionality, it also determines the character and representative symbolic force of public buildings.

Light for Living & Contemplation

Designing places in which we feel fully connected deserves our full attention, as these places help determine our attitude to life and provide refuge in times of need. Either at home or in a place of worship, we want to be with people we love and to feel welcomed. Hardly any other place demands such diversity of function in a small space: reading, thinking, resting, contentment. Finding the right lighting solution to deliver this flexibility means combining ambient and accent elements, and adding scenic flair to introduce individuality and guarantee well-being.

Light for Circadian Rhythm

Light for Circadian Rhythm looks at the technical application of Human Centric Lighting (HCL), and discusses ways to develop lighting designs that synchronise to day-night Circadian Rhythms. We look at why Circadian Rhythms are important, and how well-correlated lighting can influence performance, as well as both physical and emotional well-being. In line with this we explain the ERCO approach to HCL oriented architectural lighting to take into account the perception of Architecture (A), Activity (A) and Atmosphere (A) as they are influenced by light.  This topic brings together both the visual criteria of Human Centric Lighting and the non-visual effects of light on people.

Light for Green Walls

Biophilic design - connecting people and nature in the built environment - is adding a new element to architecture and improving the liveability and sustainability of our workplaces, public buildings and retail spaces. Healthy and appealing green walls and internal living designs require lighting with the correct colour spectrum, intensity and light distribution for healthy and attractive plants. Join us to discover how installing lighting that reaches plants in the right quality and quantity will ensure your biophilic designs remain healthy and low maintenance, and therefore able to deliver the aesthetic and well-being benefits they are capable of.

Discovering Casambi

Beautiful, functional architectural lighting design is just the start. A far cry from the days of basic dimming, the lastest Casambi Bluetooth system gives you handheld control over all aspects of the lighting in your home, office, shop or gallery. Pre-programmed scenes can reflect Circadian rhythms or control the mood of the space according to activity. Select your colour temperature and brightness, choose which luminaires work, and when. Add sensors to reflect the level of movement in a space and enjoy better ambience, reduced power bills and improved sustainability. 

Discover ERCO Lighting and Casambi control systems in a hands-on Workshop delivered by ERCO in partnership with Greg Sutton of Holders Technology or Ian Wijaya of Casambi Australia.
