DIMO opens most modern Lighting Studio

DIMO recently opened the most modern lighting demonstration studio in Sri Lanka at No. 50, Jetawana Road, Colombo 14. This state-of-the-art studio will demonstrate various modern concepts in lighting, technical demonstrations and visual mood selection rather than ordinary product displays.

Improvements in lighting quality can yield high dividends for businesses. Gains in worker productivity may result by providing corrected light levels with reduced glare. In retail spaces, attractive and comfortable lighting designs can attract clientele and enhance sales.

A thorough understanding of lighting fundamentals is essential for top decision-makers who are evaluating lighting options and upgrades. DIMO Lighting Studio has been developed to fulfill that need. The lighting concepts visualized include color washing, cove lighting, up lighting, spot lighting, feature lighting, signage lighting and application specific lighting. The technologies displayed include color dynamics of LEDs and controlling methods, LED retrofit lighting, fluorescent lamps and electronic control gears, compact florescent lamps, halogen lamps, discharge lamps and fiber optics. The fundamentals of lighting which are color temperature and color rendering are also explained and displayed in detail in the studio.

The effects of light on human beings are many and varied, and not all the effects are fully known. They go far beyond the simple process of recognizing objects. Light gives rise to moods and emotions and affects our biological rhythms. Recent studies have shown however that there is another dimension to light, namely its considerable influence over our well-being. DIMO Director Channa Weerawardena commenting on the DIMO Lighting Studio said, “This will add a new dimension to the creativity process of architects and interior designers in Sri Lanka. This allows them to virtually “play” with light and equipment before deciding on their requirement.”
