ALE_01 (Adaptive Lighting Experience project_01) stems from the wealth of experience that HASSELL has in creating some of the world’s best workplaces.

Offices are great places for sharing: we design open foyers, break-out areas, meeting rooms, kitchens, encouraging flexibility and fluidity. But how do we also offer people the chance to individualise their experience of the space?

Lighting is a shared commodity, with no way to turn it on or off, divert it or lower it without affecting someone else.

ALE_01 has grown from this need to personalise lighting in a collaborative environment. Switching from di used lighting to a dedicated task light whilst reading, the need to turn just one section of the light down in order to relax the eyes, or turn it up without anyone else being disturbed. ALE_01 lays the foundations for a new interaction with light, for the well-being of those who work, and for those who do not want to live, constantly, under the same light.
