Educate

Lacey Glass has paved their way in an extremely competitive industry by targeting niche and cutting-edge products and applications. Rather than devoting resources to simply selling their clients a specific product, Lacey Glass has always focused on providing products that meet the wide array of needs that any given project may have. The LG team boasts 150 years of combined experience, and Phil Zeutenhorst – Founder and President, alone has more than 40 years of expertise.

Using this experience, and unique ideology to provide for clients, Phil has gained a passion for educating industry professionals on the many ways that natural daylighting can be utilized to change the way the industry views lighting design. By prioritizing natural daylighting in early design stages, buildings can be built to be more efficient, have higher occupant satisfaction and provide numerous social, health and economic benefits to both owners, leaseholders and space end-users. 

In an effort to educate other industry professionals, Phil provides a variety of training’s and presentations. These training’s are targeted towards building designers, owners, architects and similar professions who have extensive knowledge in whole-building design but may be yearning for further information on natural daylighting, integration and up-and-coming technologies.

As a continuation of Daylighting 101, our Dynamic Design presentation includes a refresher of information then further expands into the complexities of daylighting design. Dynamic Daylighting systems are designed to seamlessly integrate natural and artificial light; Lacey Glass is continuously expanding its product lines to include these newly emerging technologies. This course dives deeper into various daylight model and rendering technologies and how they can be utilized to maximize efficiency and savings. Professionals with experience in glazing and lighting design would benefit from this presentation without having attended Daylighting 101.

• Attendees will be able to identify and select between a vast array of daylighting products and systems to decide which would work best in a given application.
• Attendees will continue to make daylighting a priority in the design process outside of this presentation by following the guidelines we introduce.
• Attendees will have increased knowledge of the benefits of a naturally day-lit space. This includes the social, health, and economic benefits associated with natural light.
• Attendees will have increased knowledge of tools such as daylight modeling software and programmable dynamic systems that allow for lighting to be optimized and automated from beginning design stages.
