Current office lighting recommendations stress the importance of vertical surface illumination over horizontal desktop illumination for VDT work, where the occupant is primarily in a ?heads up? position. We investigated this recommendation by creating two very different lighting conditions in two workstations in a mock-up open-plan office space. One workstation was provided with conventional, dimmable ceiling-recessed parabolic fixtures. The other, adjacent, workstation featured an innovative, dimmable, ?partition washer? system designed to preferentially light the vertical surfaces in the occupant's field of view; this was supplemented by a fixed 150 lx on the desktop from overhead. Participants (lighting experts) were assigned to one of t...
