Herlev public school is a private institution that has been providing quality education programmes to students from pre-school to ninth grade since 1967. It gets its name from Herlev, a small town in the Hovedstaden region of Denmark where it is located.

In a quiet and comfortable atmosphere, the school’s almost 250 students receive advanced instruction in subjects such as history, geography, math and foreign languages, and in optional subjects such as music, handicrafts and design later on in their academic careers. And more importantly, students are taught solid values that will help them in their future life and career.

Another distinctive feature of the Danish school is the great importance given to the communication between teachers and families.

The school offers traditional courses and specialised courses. The latter courses were specially created to help students develop a sense of autonomy and responsibility towards their education and the school, encouraging them to share resources and materials. In other words, these courses foster a type of learning that makes them feel part of their educational choices, engaging them and facilitating their relationship with their classmates and teachers.

For the younger students, the school has a playground with swings and other equipment.

Herley is a modern and innovative school, as demonstrated by the recent decision to renovate the structure, focusing the attention, among other things, on the installation of an extremely cutting-edge lighting system where all lights are LED and feature the latest technology.

For this project, the client used Liset 2.0 by Fosnova, a Disano Group company that specializes in high-performance indoor lighting systems that meet the criteria of Human Centric Lighting, a new design approach that places the people and their psychophysical well-being at the centre of the lighting design. Lighting is no longer simply used to illuminate a space, but it can help people feel good in the places where they live, study or work.

These Fosnova luminaires represent the excellence of modern lighting design with their high-quality light output. The dark light optics produce glare-free light while the absence of the harmful flickering effect (low optical flicker) ensures a stable, constant and safe light source to ensure the best possible visual comfort.

These lighting fixtures are ideal to preserve the sight and well-being of school staff and students.
