Light Up Your Life Legacy Lighting is a proud contributor in the green technology movement, and it is constantly finding ways to design environmental energy-efficient projects. It has witnessed the evolution of LED and is knowledgeable on it as it has spent the last nine years focusing on this technology. Austin is a LED city, and Legacy Lighting has supported the city in its shift towards a more sustainable choice in lighting. It has illuminated everything from historical renovations to modern skyscrapers of Austin. Some of its most notable projects are The Austonian, City Hall, Capital Renovation, The W Hotel, The Hilton Hotel, The Marriott Courtyard and Residence Inn, Malaga, Bridges, and The University of Texas Tower. LED lighting is an alternative to incandescent light bulbs that has a low energy consumption because it doesn’t waste energy in the form of non-light production heat. Not only does it reduce the demand on the natural resources that power the energy grid, making it sustainable, but it also saves the end user money. The manufacturing process of LED is environmentally friendly, and the bulbs are easy to dispose of when they reach the end of their lifespan, which is 40 times longer than incandescent bulbs. The benefits don’t quite end there; it also has a design flexibility, produces no heat or UV emissions, provides instant lighting that is able to withstand frequent switching, provides low voltage options, is able to operate in cold conditions, and offers dimming capabilities as well as directionality. The LED lighting industry is expected to continue to grow in the next three years and there is research being done that is looking at LED being the possible solution for Seasonal Affective Disorder. Finding sustainable alternatives often open doors to new opportunities; if we are receptive to change, we can reap the rewards of stepping out of our comfort zone. Legacy Lighting is always open to new advances, and it maintains a foundation in industry innovation by staying up to date with the newest technology and regulations. We look forward to seeing what is next for Legacy Lighting as it continues to deliver clients with beautifully designed lighting spaces that are sustainable for interior and outdoors.
