Window adjacent zoning

Luminaires are grouped into zones based on distance from windows. Each zone dims independently, allowing perimeter fixtures to reduce output while interior fixtures maintain full power, creating smooth gradients across the space.

Easy Budget
Approach Detail

Create 2-3m deep zones parallel to window wall. Each zone on separate DALI group or circuit. Zone 1 (0-2m from window) dims to 20% during daylight. Zone 2 (2-4m) dims to 60%. Zone 3+ (4m+) maintains full output. Program smooth transitions between zones.

Key Fixtures

Standard fixtures with DALI dimming, zone control relays, basic daylight sensors, building management integration

Designer Notes

Show the gradient from bright windows to consistently lit interior. Section diagrams illustrating the zone concept work well. Practical, logical approach that's easy to explain and commission.

Best For
Deep floor plates with limited daylight penetration, offices with single-sided glazing, retrofit projects with existing fixture infrastructure, practical energy savings focus.
