Vitasolis™ is installed in Mitsubishi Electric Lighting Corporation’s fixtures and equipped in the working space of WELLCO. This product is effective in reducing eye strain, stress, and improving work efficiency by regulating circadian rhythms which are the biological rhythms of humans. These benefits are the reason the Vitasolis™ was selected for this project as they fit the purpose of the space and the concept of the building.
Mr. Shogo Yamazaki, Group Leader of Design Department at Takenaka Corporation, noted “After a long 7 years, the building has been completed. From the onset of a comprehensive planning stage, we searched for the right office technology that would be suitable for this project and happened to come across the light of Vitasolis™. We believe that the comfort and work efficiency gained by the spectrum of Vitasolis™ will contribute to improved workers’ productivity. Therefore, we decided to install it in the building.”
Professor Masayoshi Kamijo at Shinshu University proved the effects from Vitasolis™. “Upon measuring the level of physical and mental comfort and the level of stress, there has been a tendency that people working in a room lit with the Vitasolis™ spectrum experienced reduced tiredness and stress, and an increase in work efficiency in terms of psychology and physiology.”
Nichia continuously explores how light brings value and enhances people’s life and will endlessly pursue the ideal light source.
