Lux Meter Reading & Circadian Assessment
You share your screen and a phone camera tour of your workspace. We measure estimated lux levels at desk surface, identify color-temperature conflicts, and log your working hours against circadian science. No equipment shipped. No site visit required.
- Lux estimate at monitor plane
- Color temperature mapping (K values)
- Circadian risk score (low / moderate / high)
- Photo documentation of problem zones

Fixture Selection & Color-Temperature Mapping
We design a layered lighting plan — ambient, task, and bias — specifying exact bulb models, Kelvin values, dimmer compatibility, and mounting positions. Every item links to a purchasable product. Nothing vague, nothing open-ended.
- Ambient layer: fixture model + lumen output
- Task layer: adjustable arm spec + CRI rating
- Bias light: LED strip model + controller pairing
- Dimmer switch compatibility matrix

Wiring & Placement Diagram
A to-scale annotated layout of your room showing exact fixture placement, cable routing, switch positions, and smart-home integration points. Hand it to any electrician or install it yourself — the diagram is written for both.
- Room-scale annotated floor plan
- Cable routing + junction points
- Smart-home bridge compatibility notes
- DIY vs. electrician complexity rating

Install Walkthrough & Final Calibration
Once your fixtures are in, we walk through the setup live on video call — adjusting dimmer scenes, confirming lux targets at the desk plane, and tuning color temperature by time of day. You leave with saved presets and a checklist for future adjustments.
- Live dimmer scene calibration
- Lux verification at monitor plane
- Time-of-day color temperature presets
- Written checklist for future tuning

The pain is specific.
So is the fix.
12-hr billing days
Average client workday
Twelve billable hours under a single overhead bulb.
The fluorescent above your converted spare bedroom washes out your face on client Zoom calls and leaves a glare stripe across every brief you draft. By 6pm, the headache is a fixture too.
After Lumens
After: Layered 3,000 K task lighting, a bias light behind the second monitor, and a dimmer scene that shifts from sharp morning focus to softer evening review — without a single fixture change you didn't approve first.
4,000 K sweet spot
For sustained code focus
The migraine traces back to a single overhead fluorescent.
You've optimized your stack, your keyboard, your chair — but the 6,500 K tube above your desk is still firing directly onto your 4K panel. The flicker you can't see is doing damage you can feel by Thursday.
After Lumens
After: Anti-flicker LED task lamp at 4,000 K, monitor bias light tuned to 10% of screen brightness, and overhead ambient dropped to 200 lux so your eyes stop fighting the contrast.
$4,200 avg desk setup
Undermined by a $3 bulb
A standing desk worth $4,000. One bulb overhead that cost $3.
You built the setup — sit-stand desk, ultrawide monitor, premium chair — but the ceiling fixture came with the house and has never been questioned. The ROI on your hardware is capped by what's hanging above it.
After Lumens
After: Architectural track lighting over the desk zone, a dimmable pendant for video calls, and a scene controller that makes the room feel like a proper executive workspace — not a spare bedroom.

"I'd been squinting at my brief drafts for eight months. Lumens identified a 6,200 K overhead bulb as the culprit in the first ten minutes."
