The National Lighting Bureau announces “Simply Light”


4th March 2025

(USA) – National Lighting Bureau (NLB) in partnership with the American Lighting Association (ALA) and The Lighting Agora, have introduced a new educational initiative designed to uncomplicate lighting terms for the everyday.

Simply Light, features high profile lighting professionals who break down the essential concepts in simple terms:

  • Mark Roush, Experience Light, “What is colour”
  • Jason Livingston, JL Studio Design, “Colour Temperature”
  • Jason Livingston, JL Studio Design, “Colour Rendering Index”
  • Tom Butters, The Lighting Agora, “Lumens”

Mary Beth, Chair of NLB, says: “By introducing this much needed simple lighting vocabulary for the everyday users of lighting we can educate many non-lighting professionals with these concise and informative videos presented by top industry experts and spread the word. It’s Simply Light after all.”

Tom Butters, Director of NLB, adds: “The National Light Bureau is proud to work with our programme partners to provides Simply Light free for the benefit of our industry and general public. It is one of a number of collaborative programs with other like-minded organisations that the NLB will be launching in 2025 and beyond.”

Simply Light will be available to stream on www.nlb.org and YouTube.
