DESIGNING THE WAY LIGHT FEELS,
MOVES AND PERFORMS
LIGHTING HAS A VITAL IMPACT ON THE HUMAN EXPERIENCE WITHIN THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT, AND EVERY ARCHITECTURAL AND INTERIOR DESIGN DECISION HAS A COMPLEMENTARY LIGHTING DECISION.
Creativity & Innovation
AT RESOLUT, WE UNDERSTAND THE WAY LIGHT PLAYS WITH EMOTION AND THE WAY LIGHT INTERACTS WITH THE SURFACES AND MATERIALS WITHIN A SPACE. WE BLEND NATURAL DAYLIGHT & ELECTRIC LIGHT TO CAPTURE THE VISION FOR EACH PROJECT, UTILIZING LIGHT TO MOVE US. WE DESIGN LAYERS OF LIGHT TO PROVIDE ADEQUATE AMBIENT LIGHT PAIRED WITH ACCENT LIGHTING TO REVEAL ART, FINISHES, AND UNIQUE ARCHITECTURAL FEATURES. FROM THE FIRST IMPRESSION OF THE BUILDING TO SITE AMENITIES, AND EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN, WE DETAIL WHERE LIGHT BELONGS FOR ALL INDOOR AND OUTDOOR SPACES.
Flexibility & Control
AT RESOLUT, WE KNOW LIGHTING CAN BE SUBJECTIVE, SO IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT THE CONTROL SYSTEM NOT ONLY EXCEEDS CODE, BUT ALSO PROVIDES MAXIMUM FLEXIBILITY TO THE END USER TO REDUCE STRESS AND INCREASE FOCUS. WE BLEND OUR TECHNICAL EXPERTISE WITH INGENUITY FOR ALL COMPLEX LIGHTING SYSTEMS TO MEET THE DESIGN CRITERIA FOR ALL MARKET TYPES.
Sustainability
AT RESOLUT, WE FOCUS ON SUSTAINABLE EFFORTS TO PRODUCE ENERGY-EFFICIENT LIGHTING DESIGN ON EVERY PROJECT. WE CONSIDER MANY SUSTAINABLE PROGRAMS AND BRING THESE PRINCIPLES INTO OUR DAILY EFFORTS, FROM LEED & WELL BUILDING, THE LIVING BUILDING CHALLENGE, AND DLC, DECLARE, AND RED LIST LABELS. WE LOOK AT CRADLE TO CRADLE, RECYCLE & REUSE, AND THE CIRCULAR ECONOMY TO DELIVER RESPONSIBLE DESIGN.
Quality Lighting
AT RESOLUT, WE SELECT LIGHTING SYSTEMS WITH QUALITY COMPONENTS TO ELIMINATE FLICKER, MINIMIZE GLARE, AND STAND THE TEST OF TIME. WE FOCUS ON SYSTEMS THAT ARE SUSTAINABLE, MAINTAINABLE, AND RELIABLE TO ENSURE LASTING VALUE FOR OUR CLIENTS.
“More and more, so it seems to me, light is the beautifier of the building” Frank Lloyd Wright

TO FINE-TUNING
Deliverables
Design Charrettes
Early collaboration ensures we capture the design vision and carry it through the entire design process. This effort captures the mood, feel and flow while revealing architectural features, finishes, materials, colors and the overall design intent.
Luminaire Layouts & Specification
Once we align on the culture of the space, we define lighting for interior and exterior areas through careful luminaire placement and details coordinated with ceiling types, paint colors, wall materials, flooring finishes, built-in millwork and furniture. We then select quality, reliable and long-lasting lighting systems that meet the overall project budget.
Photometric Calculations
Our lighting designers use reputable lighting software to verify adequate light levels throughout the project. We provide photometric plots as needed for site submittals and spaces with critical lighting requirements.
Renderings
We work closely with architectural designers to provide renderings that show realistic illumination in the space, including both daylight and electric light, to reveal the design intent.
Mock-Ups
We coordinate with local lighting representative partners to acquire fixture samples and organize mock-ups as needed during the design process and value-engineering efforts.
Fine-Tuning & Aiming
Near the end of construction, we assist installers with aiming, dimming and fine-tuning the lighting system. We also verify that lighting controls are commissioned and working as intended before final project closeout.
“THE BEST LIGHTING FEELS INEVITABLE”
Fritz Fryer
LIGHT DESIGNED WITH INTENTION TO ENHANCE THE HUMAN EXPERIENCE IN EVERY SPACE
Across the places people gather, heal, learn, live, work and connect, we shape lighting around the purpose and character of each environment.
