Course Title: Limbic Lighting – How to influence buying decisions of shoppers
Course Number: AIAZUMTOBEL2 2015
Course Description: One of the key topics in shop and retail design is creating
unique shopping experiences and target group activation. There is a large interest in understanding the motivation and main drivers of shoppers. However latest neuro science studies show that 90% our decisions as humans are based on emotions, these emotion driven decisions are also driving the buying decisions at point of sale. As lighting experts, we understand that light impacts on people’s mood, emotion and therefore wellbeing – both in a positive and negative ways .However we realized that lighting and emotion has never been researched in the shop and retail environment from a consumer perspective until now. The results of the limbic lighting study show that lighting is closely related to the wellbeing of the customers and therefore dwell times and individual spending significantly, in fact 10% if applied in the right way. Limbic lighting is not connected to specific lighting technology, it is more deeply linked to a better and profound understanding of the shopper and their behavior. This study and course allows architects and interior designers to understand the consumers side of lighting better and enhance shop design according to the needs of the customer target groups
