Dave sits down with Ulysse Dormoy, CEO of Atrium Ltd, to explore a subject hiding in plain sight: the light we live under every day — and how it’s quietly impacting our health, performance, and wellbeing 🌞🏙️
What starts as a conversation about lighting design quickly reveals a much bigger story. From LED flicker and infrared deprivation, to the shocking parallels between ultra-processed food and ultra-processed light, Ulysse shares his journey into the world of light as a biological force.
We dive into:
🔎 How modern offices and homes are robbing us of essential light
🌿 Why sunlight exposure, shadow mapping, and solar orientation matter more than ever
🧠 The science behind photobiomodulation and its rising popularity
🏢 The silent health risks baked into energy-efficient architecture
🚶♂️ What designers, planners, and employers can do to build truly healthy environments
You’ll also hear why Ulysse carries a spectrometer everywhere, what happens when beauty brands get lighting wrong, and how we might be heading towards a "lighting tobacco moment" — where health meets accountability ⚠️
Whether you're an architect, designer, developer, or just spend too much time indoors, this episode will change the way you think about light, space, and health forever 🌇
