DPA's own Emily Tragish and Douglas Pancake, alongside Michael White, Senior Lighting Designer at Schuler Shook, wrote an article for the Winter issue of CALA Magazine. The article addresses ways to use light and darkness in senior living facilities to create healthier and happier environments for the aging. It also features a few examples from some of our projects. Check out the article here- The Effects of Evidence-Based Lighting Design
