adapted to support HCL through collaboration between Simac and TRILUX.
“You could keep it simple, but we chose to develop a custom lighting solution together with TRILUX. That caused a few months’ delay for those units, but now everything fits perfectly. I’m very happy we made that choice.”
Data-driven flexibility for the future Alongside the lighting upgrade, the building layout was reconfigured to support flexible working, replacing fixed desks with shared, activity-based spaces.
Data collected through the lighting and sensor system provides ongoing insight into how spaces are used, allowing continuous optimisation.
“We know exactly which rooms are used and when,” says Van Tilborg. “And that offers opportunities. If a space is structurally unused, we can redesign it.” Because the system is fully wireless, luminaires can be repositioned easily without structural changes. “Just regroup them and it’s done.”
The same data can also be used to optimise building operations, including cleaning schedules and room booking systems.
Collaborative delivery under
tight timelines Close coordination between all project partners was essential to meet the programme.
“The pace of our renovation was high, but we were able to align instantly,” says Van Tilborg. “Thanks to the clear
architectural drawings and TRILUX’s pragmatic approach, the lighting concept turned out exactly as we envisioned.”
A phased installation approach, working from the top floor downwards, allowed the project to progress efficiently. “TRILUX adapted seamlessly.”
A workplace designed to perform The completed headquarters has been well received by employees and visitors alike, with lighting designed to support both comfort and interaction.
“The light doesn’t stand out – exactly as intended,” Van Tilborg notes. “I work at the office more than before. Not only because of the building itself, but because of the pleasant atmosphere and interaction it creates. The lighting definitely plays a role in that.”
The building also serves as a demonstration space for clients, showcasing the potential of integrated smart technologies.
“It’s great to see how impressed visitors are. They immediately get a clear picture of what we can offer. And that’s what it's really about: inspiring people.”
Van Tilborg concludes: “Pay attention to the details. Trust me, they matter. More than you think. If you have the chance to do something really well, then do it. We’re glad we made that choice.”
