Organising our research, we prepared the following write up on LED lighting in Museum.
Appropriate lighting for museums' artefacts and environment had been made easier with LED lighting. Compared to bulkier fluorescent / incandescent fixture, LED lightings smaller size makes lighting artefacts much easier. With the high quality directional lighting, customisable lighting colours ('CCT') and accompanying filters and add ons, LED lighting will bring out the best of an art piece. The reflective effect of LED light can be managed far more easily to allow photographers to photograph art pieces. This is done by choosing suitable power rating, filters and making use of ambient light. We can work with different angle light beam that forms the basis on whether that is spot or flood lighting effect. This may give a different effect in a camera. On top of using dialux, a consultant that possess knowledge in available hardware globally and experience in the lighting effect will give you the most suitable lighting solution. This will minimise implementation time cost to bring out the best of your environment. Above is probably a snapshot of the bigger discipline in 'Museum lighting research'. We shall bring you more updates soon. Disclaimer: We do not claim to have ownership on the pictures and information presented below.

After a long day at work, sometimes we require subtle things to perk us up. Bright yellow in our home is surely the colour that may invigorate a tired soul. ON top of the energy it possesses, the colour does provide a sense of security and stableness. The right tone of yellow will further add a touch of class.
Will the colour be too loud? Probably not as it blends in well with natural sunlight or white lightings or white washed walls. Yellow goes well with colours like; magenta, sky blue, brown, green, orange, white and even black. It is one colour that can blend into furniture and wood panelling without much effort. Most people would prefer to use warm white lighting to create a soothing environment at home. The warm white light bouncing off the wall will create a superbly relaxing environment that is truly warming. If you have any ideas or experience with a bright yellow concept home, feel free to share with us! Disclaimer: Note that we are merely sharing some designs that we have came across being simple and fitting of our publication theme. We do not receive any direct incentives for such sharing of information. Today, allow IASPL to present our top 5 picks of a GREEN coloured home in the literal sense!
Green sections in a home usually makes the place seem more naturalistic and giving a 'GREAT OUTDOORS' vibe. Together with a small water fountain and soothing classical music; I'm sure it eliminates the stress from a hectic city life. Having green colours at home to look at might also be a good thing for our tired eyes. The conventional way of having a green theme are about painting, adding fabrics, wall papers, furnitures etc. These days we can do up a green wall system easily. Apart from real plants, using realistic but artificial vegetation will save you time and cost in maintenance. Mix and match the right combination of plants and you will not discount on the 'GREAT OUTDOORS' feel factor. Even a small apartment can have a mini green area. Common areas to consider; 1. Along the walkway or aisle to your rooms 2. Near the entrance to your front door; 3. Around your TV console 4. Out at your balcony You can assess the different types of wall mounted vegetation to the different texture carpet grass according to your preference. The artificial plants are guaranteed to be a simple hook up exercise. You can even do a special painting on your wall to complement the vegetation. This adds a layering effect to your wall. With a painting beneath the vegetation, you can anytime alternate the concept of your home by removing the vegetation. This will surprise your regular visitors! Green goes well with many colours, most of all white, yellow, light purple, oak brown and light baby blue. In terms of pairing it with lighting, this really depends on the shade of green you have. It will give a good vibe with natural sunlight ranging from colour temperature of 4800K - 5800K. For simplicity, one can use lighting and different types of plants for contrasting purposes. Do note that uniformity in the shade of green over a large area might just make your place look too commercial.

December.23, 2014 - 16:14 — judy.lin “Large LED manufacturers will be speeding up expansion plans, and enter a last production expansion peak,” said Roger Chu, Research Director, LEDinside. "The new subsidiary regulations will raise the bar for future subsidiary applications, and prevent potential new players from entering the market," said Figo Wang, Senior Analyst, LEDinside China. The Chinese central government’s policy to terminate LED industry subsidies will be extended to local governments, according to a latest Chinese-language UDN report. .... ... analysts noted the reduction of subsidiaries in the LED industry would benefit the LED market, as uncompetitive LED players are removed from the industry. This perspective was also shared by other industry players that believed the policies will aid the Chinese LED market to eliminate manufacturers without the technology capacity. An LED package manufacturer even projected 85% of Chinese LED epiwafer companies will become insolvent without government subsidies. Our thoughts on above: The high level of subsidies for LED industry has definitely led to a hugh take up rate for LED lighting. This might seem a good thing for both sellers and adopters of LED as it lowers electrical consumption. The subsidy is probably also the catalyst that made the price of LEDs fall drastically over the last 2 years. As LED lights become cheaper, it also made it easier for any seller (specifically those without know-how and lacks resources to build it up) to enter the market. While many of us only see the successes of people / institutions implementing LEDs; we as a top specialist in South East Asia also notice an alarming defect rate / failures from people buying from cheap sources. Things can be cheap and good, but we should first learn to value the worth of an LED. The hugh amount of subsidies had resulted in a depressed price level, which might not be achievable with existing demand. The previous situation may have contributed to the hugh disparity in quality and performance of the LEDs. Removing the subsidy should lead to a more stable quality supply of LEDs in time to come. Stanley Managing Director for IASPL Schemes to support LED lighting and energy efficient products available on e2 Singapore website16/9/2014 1) Finance Programme for Energy Efficiency Projects What the scheme does?
With the above description, we presume that LED lights are a well proven item that will help save energy in any building/infrastrcture. This scheme will help offset the high capital investment that companies may incurred for using quality and reliable LED lighting.
We are also available if you have questions on the above. The above information are available easily at the following link; http://app.e2singapore.gov.sg/Incentives/Finance_Programme_for_Energy_Efficiency_Projects.aspx |
