At Clerkenwell Design Week 2025, Ryan Wigham (Associate Director at Bimstore) joined Miles Cantley (Innovation Director at Mount Lighting) and Bethan Hellings (Head of Design at Avent Interiors) for a BIM-focused panel discussion. Taking place at the Mount Lighting Design Studio, the discussion ranged from 3D design and BIM in practice, to how we conceptualise and create spaces.

At Mount Lighting, they feel that a high-quality lighting design is more than just a product selection, it’s about precise coordination, visualisation, and a seamless integration. While many projects still rely on 2D drawings, there’s a shift towards 3D lighting design and BIM for lighting design as industry standards evolve.

Excessive glare holds the potential to disrupt concentration and strain the eyes, potentially amounting to welfare issues and an overall decline in productivity and well-being. To address the issue of glare, the concept of Unified Glare Rating (UGR) has emerged as a valuable metric in the field of commercial lighting design, and it is a crucial consideration when creating a lighting design for working environments.

Mount Lighting is a leading manufacturer of customisable architectural, commercial, and emergency lighting, focusing specifically on the workplace. Have a look at their case study to find out about their journey with BIM, why they view Bimstore as a different type of partner, and how working with us has led to huge increases in brand awareness and product downloads.
