Dementia-Friendly Circadian Lighting for Care Homes
Lighting design, artificial daylight and smart controls to support calmer days, better orientation and healthier day-night rhythms.
Lighting that supports people, not just spaces.
Many care homes rely on static, conventional lighting that can disrupt sleep, reduce orientation and contribute to agitation, confusion and fatigue in people living with dementia.
Dementia-friendly lighting takes a difference approach – using the right light in the right place, at the right time – to reinforce natural body rhythms and create environments that feel calm, safe and familiar.
Kazzar combines circadian lighting, low-glare design and artificial daylight with intuitive smart controls to help staff deliver better care in spaces that truly support wellbeing.
Good lighting doesn't just help people see better - it helps them fee better, every day.
How it works across the day
Morning
Energise & orient
Bright, cool-enriched light helps promote alertness, orientation and a positive start to the day.
Day
Focus & wellbeing
Balanced, natural light supports mood, engagement and comfortable activity throughout the day.
Evening
Wind down
Warmer tones and gently reducing light help the body prepare for rest and a more peaceful evening
Night
Reset & reassurance
Low-level, warm lighting supports safe movement at night without disturbing sleep rhythms.
Where we apply it
Bedrooms
Support rest, comfort and a natural sleep-wake cycle.
Lounges & Dining
Enhance mood, social connection and engagement during the day.
Corridors & Night-time Wayfinding
Provide safe, low-level guidance without disrupting rest.
Artificial Daylight for Deeper Plan Spaces
Windowless lounges, corridors and internal rooms can feel flat and disorientating. Kazzar's artificial daylight solutions introduce natural, dynamic light from above - helping residents feel more connected to time of day and place.
- Restores a sense of daylight and openess
- Supports circadian rhythms and ood
- Ideal for lounges, dining rooms and internal corridors
Evidence-led approach
Vertical light at the eye
Light delivered at eye level supports orientation, recognition and a stronger sense of place.
Tunable white lighting
Dynamic colour temperature and brightness follow natural rhythms to support alertness by day and rest by night.
Low-glare visual comfort
Carefully controlled luminance reduces flare and contrast, helping to minimise agitation and visual discomfort.
Smart controls & scene setting
Simple, pre-set scenes for different activities and times of day - easy for staff, consistent for residents.
Residential Case Study
Home is where we prioritize our well-being and comfort. In today's multi-use home environments, which encompass everything from home offices to the necessity for a healthy sleep environment, Circadian Lighting enables you to live in sync with your body's natural clock.
In this showcased project, we utilized a combination of tunable white LED strips and Casambi-based lighting controls to recreate the sensation of daylight in areas with limited natural light penetration during the day.
