The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has supported solid-state lighting (SSL) in the United States for over 13 years, through research and development (R&D) funding that has led to technology breakthroughs, development of intellectual property, and streamlined product manufacturing. OLEDWorks LLC, Inc. is one of the recipients of R&D funding for developing organic light-emitting diode (OLED) materials and manufacturing methods, and is the only US based OLED manufacturer.
DeJoy, Knauf & Blood, LLP is an accounting and business advisory firm with its headquarters in Rochester N.Y. that provides services to companies in the high-tech industry and a wide variety of other industries. DeJoy, Knauf & Blood, LLP’s team approach to providing professional services has resulted in their reputation as TeamDKB. TeamDKB’s new office is located at Tower280 at Midtown in the heart of Downtown Rochester, after having moved from a 1980’s-vintage downtown office that they had leased
for 25 years.
TeamDKB committed to an unconventional office organization philosophy, where there are few private offices, and those offices use glass walls to encourage transparency and the sharing of daylight. Most of the office space is open plan, with work stations aligned along a structural spine. Spines are arranged in rows, which enables teams of employees to work closely together in groups.
OLED luminaires are primarily located in visually prominent areas: conference rooms, partner offices, the break room and lounge table areas, entry corridors and reception desk. An amber OLED marker light is used in the Zen/Mother’s room, a few angled OLED task lights add soft localized desk lighting in private offices, and a couple of pendant lights add a decorative touch to the copy room. All of the luminaires use OLEDWorks LLC OLED panels; almost all the OLED luminaires are connected to 0-10V dimmers.
