5 CRITERIA These statements will serve as a tool when addressing opportunities and weaknesses in the implementing of the final lighting design for ED treat- ment. Healing Nutrition: Regulated food intake and strict schedules suggest that patients undergoing ED treatment are already nutritionally synchronised circadian, but nothing suggest that circadian lighting will disrupt anything. Glare and sensitivity: Findings/information from this thesis would suggest that patients with eating disorders are more sensitive and thus maybe they experience CCT and intensity as exaggerated compared to other patients. Low energy levels: Patients with energy during morning and evening might experience more energy in the middle of the day as a result of the after- noon boost. Presuming that this will add to a healing environment and not induce more exercise. Atmospheric Therapy boosts during the day: The relatively high light levels needed for therapy boosts will negatively affect the experience of a warm and homey atmosphere at the facility. Not being able to control the light level and CCT: Cold and bright light can in Denmark be experienced as institutional, professional and be linked institution and health care treatment. Ceiling mounted fixtures: Culturally speaking, Danish people tend to lower the source of light to create a cosy mood in a space. High uniformity demand: Evenly lit spaces prevent for patients to choose whether to sit in the dark or bright spots. Glare: can be hard to avoid with the high illuminance levels required for the CL to have an effect. Functional Minimum standards: By following the current minimum standards for healthcare environments and treatment, the staff should have sufficient work light. Eating situation: Allowing a cosy dim light can be limiting on the level of observation for the staff in an eating situation. High CRi: when observing the patients eat, high Cri will enhance colours and contrast, helping the staff to focus and see clear. Curtains: in the hall ways will prevent the staff from observing the patients when they are in the court yards, allowing for exercise. Vertical light: Cove lighting in hallways, opposite from windows can lower reflections in combination with vertical light in courtyards. Night light: Lower light levels at night will support the circadian Melatonin rhythm in night time staff. Master thesis · MSc Lighting Design · Pernille Bech-Larsen · Fall 2017 69
