As technology evolves, so do the expectations for modern buildings — smarter, greener, and more efficient than ever.
This month, we explore the role of intelligent lighting controls in Wakefield Hospital’s state-of-the-art redevelopment, the growing impact of light pollution and how thoughtful design can mitigate its effects, and the advancements in green building technology that are shaping the future of sustainable infrastructure.
These insights are driving efficiency, enhancing occupant well-being, and ensuring businesses stay ahead in an ever-changing landscape.
Sincerely, The Intelligent Environments Team
Lighting Controls for Wakefield Hospital
A Smarter, More Efficient Future
The Wakefield Hospital Redevelopment marks a significant leap forward in New Zealand’s healthcare infrastructure, delivering a state-of-the-art facility designed to enhance both patient care and operational efficiency.
Intelligent Environments played a pivotal role in this transformation, providing an advanced lighting control system tailored to the hospital’s unique needs.

Light Pollution The Hidden Impact of Light Pollution
Artificial lighting has transformed the way we live and work, but excessive or poorly managed lighting can have unintended consequences. From disrupting ecosystems and human health to obscuring our view of the night sky, light pollution is a growing concern.
The good news? Thoughtful lighting design and smart controls can make a significant difference.
Learn how better lighting choices can reduce light pollution and create healthier, more sustainable environments in this article.
Green building technology is transforming the way we think about sustainability.
From energy-efficient lighting controls to intelligent automation, modern buildings are designed to minimise environmental impact without compromising on functionality or comfort. But what does this mean in practice, and how can businesses integrate these innovations into their spaces?
Find out how cutting-edge technology is shaping the future of sustainable buildings in this article.
We love debunking common lighting control myths – one myth at a time!
Myth
You need different types of sensors to measure different things.
Busted
The innovative zencontrol multi-sensors can provide feedback on many aspects of a buildings' performance as well as lux levels and occupancy sensing. They can report back on air quality, humidity, temperature, pressure, sound, as well as light colour and intensity.
