The how, why and when of systems integration

Tuesday September 17, 2024 9:00am - 10:00am CDT

Inspiration Station

This presentation will focus on when, why and how to engage a systems integrator to ensure a painless and successful end result. This will be a 2 part (40 minute) presentation followed by Q & A.

Part 1) What is a systems integrator and why does my project need one? Not every project needs a systems integrator and during this portion we will differentiate between projects where one is not needed and projects where it would be best to include a systems integrator in the specifications. (20 minutes)

Part 2) Once I have determined my project needs a systems integrator, what is the best method for choosing one and getting them involved. During this portion we will go over how to specify a systems integrator, where the specifications should live in the spec documents and at what stage would it be best to engage the integrator.(20 minutes)

Enhancing Safety: Experience Behavioral Health Lighting & Design for High Abuse Spaces

Tuesday September 17, 2024 9:00am - 6:00pm CDT

Healthcare Vignette

When it comes to patient and staff safety, behavioral health/high abuse facilities need light fixtures that are tested and proven to perform to the highest standard in these specialty environments. This carefully designed vignette will help demonstrate the importance of behavioral health/high abuse luminaires and interior design elements.

All items in these spaces need to be engineered to meet the rigorous requirements of the New York State Office of Mental Health (NYS-OMH) and other industry recommendations. In the last several decades, behavioral healthcare has evolved dramatically – alongside our societal understanding of mental illness. Treatment objectives have changed from symptom control to patient-centered recovery. These changes permeate every element of behavioral health/high abuse facility design, including lighting.

Come experience some of the key components in a behavioral healthcare setting and speak with Subject Matter Experts.

CEU Session, Business Strategies +Development

Women in Lighting+Design DFW is excited to have Amy Bonder, CCO at Luminii speak at ArchLIGHT Summit. Ms. Bonder will be speaking about how Brand statements are integral to long term career development. Personal branding is how you tell your authentic story to others which helps bolter confidence and credibility within your industry and sphere of influence. It helps with building trust, driving focus, networking while setting oneself apart from others. A clearly defined brand statement helps you really laser in on your passion and your expertise. It allows you to have a compass to drive choices on: types of projects that you want to design; cultures in a company that suit you; committees that allow you to feed your passion while delivering your expertise. A brand statement that is effectively communicated allows others to truly understand who you are as a career professional. Employers, customers, peers, etc. can identify you with types or work while getting excited about what you have to say. Careerblast.tv said that a personal brand "allows you to promote yourself at work so your audience knows exactly what you stand for. People with strong personal brands are authentic, stand out from the crowd, and are able to deliver their unique set of skills to a company with moxie and confidence".

Planning for Lighting: Advocating for Better Lighting Regulations in our Cities

Wednesday September 18, 2024 10:00am - 11:00am CDT

Inspiration Station

Any lighting project in our communities - whether for interiors, the outdoors, or infrastructure like roadways - presents our industry with the opportunity to be a good neighbor to those around us or become a nuisance, uphold our obligations to ecological responsibility, and to develop infrastructure lighting that is safe and equitable without leaving the needs of some users behind.

However, conversations with city staff and community members over what makes a quality lighting design and what to expect from our work can be difficult. Many municipal lighting regulations are too minimal or out of date to be useful in lighting design work.

This presentation will provide a vision for what a comprehensive lighting master plan, a lighting ordinance, or both can accomplish for the communities where attendees live and work. These documents help facilitate communication, improve the efficiency of lighting projects by setting clearer expectations, and show neighbors (and ourselves) what to expect from the lighting around them.

The process of developing a lighting master plan offers the opportunity for public outreach and identifying areas currently underserved by lighting infrastructure, improving awareness and equity. For city staff, a dedicated lighting ordinance gives them a more enforceable tool to address and prevent lighting issues in their communities while gaining insight into our industry.

Improving lighting regulations in the areas we live and work in is a win-win scenario we can all advocate for.
