Andrew Bissell
Director of Light4
Manchester, UK
I lead Cundall’s lighting design team, Light4, with a focus on delivering integrated daylight and electric lighting design, that enhances people’s lives and their perception of spaces while saving energy.
I believe lighting design is a response to the needs of the people who occupy a space and the task they are undertaking. Their needs will be both visual and functional, where the solution is provided will through appropriate control of daylight and electric light as the task dictates.
I regularly contribute to publications and speak at industry events talking about the various ways light can have a positive influence on projects. I was involved in the 2011 re-write of the CIBSE lighting guide, Lighting for learning and the 2012 EFA Baseline Design Standards for Daylighting Strategy.
