Lighting Design Service
Ceiling and lighting design is a crucial part of the commercial design process. It is here that we can explore Greenlux product options, placement ideas, and configuration types to ensure your project is perfectly lit. Whether it is bespoke architectural lighting design, user comfort and wellbeing, achieving strict Australian compliance, saving on energy bills, or ensuring return on investment, our expert lighting designers will tailor each scheme to help you achieve your objective.

Design for Health and Wellbeing
Good lighting design can directly affect the health and wellbeing of the users in a space. Poor lighting design, on the other hand, can lead to fatigue, headaches, eye strain, and longer-term health issues. By specifying Greenlux luminaires with high Colour Rendering Indices (CRI) and low Unified Glare Ratings (UGR), we ensure a comfortable, human-centric environment.
Architectural Lighting Design
Combining aesthetics, function, and efficiency, our team will help you deliver lighting schemes that not only comply with all current Australian lighting regulations (such as AS/NZS 1680 and NCC Section J6) but will also enhance the architecture of the space and reduce environmental impact.

The Lighting Design Process
Projects rarely develop in a straight line, and we are well aware there will be changes and revisions along the way. To achieve the full potential of your project, it’s wise to involve Greenlux lighting designers from the early concept stages. We work best when we are aware of your design objectives, the guidelines you are trying to achieve, and the deadlines you need to meet.

Lighting design requirements:
To get started on your design, it is incredibly helpful if you can provide:
- DWG drawings and/or reflected ceiling plans (RCPs)
- Sections or at least ceiling heights
- Reflectances for non-standard ceilings and walls
- Confirmation of what lighting guidelines you are working to (e.g., Green Star, WELL,
- PCA Guidelines). If you don’t know, we can advise you.
- Look and feel document or mood boards
- Furniture layouts for the fitout
- Any building restrictions we should be aware of
Frequently Asked Questions
What are the benefits of working with a Greenlux lighting designer?
It’s the exact same benefit as using an architect to design a building, or a mechanical consultant to design your HVAC system. A lighting designer is an expert in their field, who understands all of the complex Australian recommendations for lighting, and can create a suitable, compliant scheme specific to your requirements.
What types of light fittings are available for commercial lighting design?
The world is your oyster! Take a look at our commercial lighting products page to browse a massive selection of Greenlux options. If you can’t see exactly what you want, give us a call and we can discuss bespoke solutions.
How does the design service work?
Quite simply, we consult on the design requirements, budgets, and specifications with you. We create some initial proposals, and once signed off, we continue with a full technical design package. We also produce the emergency lighting design (which is a strict legal requirement in any Australian commercial project).
How do I understand lux or illumination level requirements for commercial spaces?
Design requirements can be complex and are different on every single project depending on the tasks being performed. Our design calculation packs have an easy compliance check system to show you exactly what areas comply with the AS/NZS 1680 lighting recommendations set out in the specification.
