EVENT DETAILS
Join us for an intimate panel discussion exploring the artistic and uniquely expressive potential of lighting in the built environment. Our panel of experts, featuring a lighting designer, architect, interior designer, and technology integrator, will examine the intersection of human-centric design, emerging lighting technology, and evocative spatial experiences made possible through light.
The event will also feature a brief demonstration from the Lutron Los Angeles Design Studio with real-time examples of applications and effects discussed in the panel, along with ample time for networking before and after the discussion.

Teal Brogden, IALD, MIES, LC – Senior Principal & President, HLB Lighting Design
As an avid listener, Teal enjoys the refinement that comes with vetting concepts in a collaborative team forum. Just as there is balance inherent in light and shadow, so too comes the balance of art and science, aspiration and pragmatism, in the final solution.
Teal’s combined background in the arts and engineering puts her at ease with both the ephemeral and technical challenges inherent in lighting design. Her holistic design perspective has been honed and applied over three decades of industry leadership and iconic project work, making her an invaluable team member that elevates the aspirations of every project she is involved in.
Teal is a Senior Principal and President at HLB lighting design and a leader in HLB’s West Coast, national and international efforts. She is a widely recognized award-winning industry leader and contributes to the International Association of Lighting Designers (IALD), and a Board Advisor to the Rocky Mountain Lighting Academy.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES – AIA CES: 2.0 LU|HSW Approved
Participants will be able to identify and describe at least three layered lighting strategies when evaluating existing or proposed architectural projects with sufficient detail to explain how each strategy contributes to spatial experience and occupant well-being.
Participants will be able to analyze and articulate the relationship between lighting design techniques and human circadian rhythms when reviewing interior environments in their practice by connecting specific lighting characteristics such as color temperature and intensity to their biological and psychological impacts.
Participants will be able to evaluate and recommend appropriate applications of warm-dim and tunable lighting technologies within the context of specific project types and client needs by weighing factors including wellness goals, budget considerations, and technical integration requirements.
Participants will be able to communicate and collaborate more effectively with lighting designers and technology integrators during the design and specification process using accurate terminology and demonstrating understanding of both artistic intent and technical implementation of holistic lighting approaches.
