Circadian Rhythm

Adjusts to your body’s natural rhythms, promoting healthier sleep and wakefulness.

Blue Spectrum 
Component

A possible cause for certain illness may be the daylight colour of artifical light.
Exposure to blue light in the evening suppresses melatonin release, increasing alertness and delaying the circadian system’s natural phase.

Why Do Flights Throw You Off Balance? Or Why Do Jet Lag Throw You Off Balance?

Jet lag happens when your body’s internal clock is out of sync with a new time zone. This disruption primarily affects the body’s internal clock, which is heavily influenced by exposure to sunlight regulating melatonin production. often causing fatigue and difficulty staying alert. Adjusting to local daylight patterns can help ease these symptoms over time.

Melatonin holds the key for sleep-wake up synchronization

Melatonin, produced by the pineal gland in your brain, signals when it’s time to sleep and wake up. Typically, melatonin levels rise in the evening as the sun sets and decrease in the morning with daylight.

How light affects our

Bright Light

Bright light, especially sunlight, is a natural mood enhancer. It boosts our energy, elevates mood, and improves focus by increasing serotonin levels and reducing melatonin.
 

Dull Light

Dim light is perfect for bedtime, but during the day, it can cause drowsiness and sluggishness which is helpful in case of inducing sleep.
 

Coloured Light

Colored light can change our mood! Amber-Red and orange can energize and stimulate, while cool colours like blue and green promote focus.

Achieving Realistic Lighting with Directional Light-

Directional lights behave similarly to sunlight, with their light rays running parallel and having no fixed position. This allows you to adjust both the direction of the light and the intensity of specular shadows, along with colour as needed.
