Quality lighting design at St. Rita Place & Cascia Center makes a difference in seniors’ daily lives
The architect recognizes that effective illumination bears a real impact on the lives of low-income seniors, and considers BEAM’s lighting design and specifications as an important piece to creating a welcoming home. Selecting good quality luminaires provides balanced lighting that the aging eye requires, without glare or shadows.
The first floor of the Cascia Center includes a comfortable gathering space with direct/indirect light needed for the variety of their activities. In addition to adhering to a tight luminaire budget, the lighting met the requirements needed for Energy Star Multifamily High-Rise and Enterprise Green Communities certifications.
