There’s a trick to thinking creatively...

Need a new or creative idea? Turn the lights down...

A new study found that dimming the lights can significantly improve creative performance. The authors of the study say dim lighting enhances our feeling of freedom from constraints and reduces inhibitions which opens our minds up to free thinking and new ideas.

The study also found that the best light for productivity is adjustable light. By having the ability to adjust the environmental lighting in the workplace, we can actually illuminate the setting for urgent or detailed work or take it down a notch for a deeper, darker thought process.
