Welcome to the Focus On LEDs in Lighting newsletter for Aug. 25, 2022. It's hard to believe that LightSPEC West is only weeks away. I've booked my travel to L.A. and I hope to meet with some of you there at the Magic Box @ the Reef. Need to know why you should attend? Read our conference preview to get the scoop on how the design & build communities can collaborate, inspire new design ideas, meet sustainability goals, and improve the overall experience in the built environment through thoughtful application of lighting, controls, and inclusive practices. Then register before time runs out!
