SUMMARY:BDQ Online CPD Masterclass with LA Lounge
DESCRIPTION:Designing with the Body Clock\nLight does more than shape how a space looks — it shapes how the people in it feel. \nJoin Susan Stokes of L A Lounge for a closer look at circadian rhythm lighting\, exploring the biological mechanism behind it\, how light signals affect the human body\, and how these effects are measured. Susan will unpack tunable white technology and the electrical system infrastructure required to support it\, giving Building Designers a practical understanding of where this approach fits within the lighting schemes they’re already creating. \nThe session closes with a look at real project applications\, helping you recognise where circadian rhythm and tunable white design genuinely add value for clients. \nDetails \n\nDate: Thursday 20 August 2026\nFormat: Online\nCPD Type: 1 Type F CPD\nPresenter: Susan Stokes\, L A Lounge\n\nClick Here To Register \n
