5 CRITERIA 5.3 Design criteria Working with the final problem statement and design hypotheses, three de- sign related research questions has been formed, as a tool establish the final design criteria for the lighting design: How can lighting design improve the work environment? • Safe/Professional: maintaining current standards, as it is also impor- tant for the staff to be able to fulfil the daily tasks, be safe and keep an eye out for the patients. • Supporting: when the light levels are adjusted for the task and time of day, it will minimise the unwanted sleep delay in night shift workers. How can lighting design add spatial identity and healing atmosphere? • Calming: Avoiding glare, creating visual stimuli by adding contrast and layers of lighting, to avoid the institutional hospital feeling, thus enhancing relaxation and reducing anxiety levels. • Personalised: The private space, where patients go to seek peace and quiet should have adjustable lighting, allowing for personal pref- erence. Providing patients with options and choices of what they feel in the need for – whether it is comforting or focused. “How can circadian lighting be designed, to contribute to the treatment of severe ED? • Dynamic: Specialised, designed and programmed to make a valid contribution to the healing and overall well-being according to the daily schedule and seasons. • Resetting: Focusing on normalising sleep patterns, anxiety and mood as tools to accelerate the healing and reducing the hospitali- sation time.
