Precision Lighting for Art and Conservation

DesignLux is a specialist in gallery and museum lighting design in Ireland, delivering solutions that showcase art while preserving it for future generations.

Managing Light, Preserving Heritage

We understand the delicate balance between visibility and conservation. Our designs strictly adhere to CIE 157:2004, EN 12464-1, and BS 5544 recommendations, ensuring UV, IR, and lux exposure limits are respected.

Standards, Sensitivity, and Sustainability

Our team follows CIBSE LG6 and EN 12464-1 recommendations to achieve appropriate contrast ratios and energy performance. Lighting control systems (DALI, Casambi, DMX) provide scene-setting and intuitive control for showrooms, galleries, and retail spaces.

By integrating tunable white LEDs, controlled beam optics, and intelligent dimming, we provide curators and conservators with flexibility and precision. Lighting scenes can adapt to exhibitions, enhancing the visitor experience while safeguarding exhibits.

Our approach also supports WELL and LEED standards for sustainable design, with low-energy, high-efficacy luminaires and optimal maintenance strategies.

Recommended Light Levels:

Highly sensitive artefacts: <50 lux

Moderately sensitive works: <200 lux

General viewing areas: 300–500 lux
