Blue Monday

Today is Blue Monday, the most depressing day of the year 🔵 Fortunately, you can get through this day easily, lighting can give you a hand!

The importance of light

Every light source produces light waves and our body recognizes these waves. These light waves affect our mood, and even a small amount of light can affect our sleep cycle. We would prefer to work in an environment with plenty of daylight, but that is not always feasible, especially during the dark days that the Netherlands sometimes has. In this regard, thoughtful interior lighting can provide an excellent replacement for the lack of natural daylight.

Our approach to Blue Monday

Now the question arises: what is the right lighting? While this depends on the space and the person, one thing is clear. Low or warm light can intensify our emotions, while brighter LED light can actually help improve our mental state. Optimal is a workplace where daylight is plentiful, combined with a flexible lighting system where each individual can control his or her own lighting.

Understandably, not every company or person has this ability. This is where the power of good LED lighting comes in, an accessible and effective solution. Curious about some of the offices we have fitted with the right lighting? You can find them via this link.

Go outside!

Finally, we would like to share one more thing. Go outside! Being outside has many positive effects on our mood and well-being. Take a walk or enjoy your outdoor environment for a while. Even when it is cloudy, your body makes vitamin D ⛅
