Private developers face 1st-in-nation rules
for buildings
By Thomas C. Palmer Jr., Globe Staff | December 20, 2006
“Boston is expected to become the first major city in the nation to
require private developers to adhere to a strict set of green building
standards, officials said yesterday.
The standards will be required before permits are issued for all
projects of 50,000 square feet or more. The goal is to make new
buildings more energy efficient and environmentally friendly.”
Massachusetts Air Quality Emissions
Massachusetts produces 185,000 tons of
polluting emissions each year, with a
large proportion of these coming from
electricity production. This chart is based
on stationary energy production and
emissions and does not include
transportation impacts.

Performance: Suspended indirect lighting can
cause excessive ceiling brightness which reflects on
computer screens, reducing visual comfort and
productivity. Tambient furniture mounted units spread
light smoothly across the ceiling to eliminate these hot
spots. They balance the brightness of the ceiling with
the workstation and provide comfortable illumination
to surrounding spaces
Design Freedom from Clutter is obtained by
integrating the lighting and furniture to have downlight
(task) and uplight (ambient) from a single luminaire.
Freedom of Choice means that you can use any
manufacturer’s open plan furniture system and be
confident that the lighting system will be compatible.
Design Flexibility enables even offices with low
ceilings to enjoy high quality indirect lighting. Work
stations can also be easily reconfigured and relocated
without sacrificing quality as the lighting moves with
the furniture.
Cost Tambient products save the end user money
by offering Energy Savings, Simplified Installation,
Reduced Maintainence and Tax Advantages
because as a furnniture integrated luminaire, the
Owners can write off the entire cost of the lighting
system in 7 years. Tambient also helps building
owners qualify for maximum tax deductions under the
Energy Policy Act of 2005.
