✨ PROJECT SPOTLIGHT: Department of Veterans’ Affairs ✨

We're proud to showcase the recently completed Department of Veterans’ Affairs new office in Canberra, featuring a large-scale smart lighting control solution powered by Casambi.

Spanning approximately 14,000m² of office space across six levels and supporting more than 1,000 staff, this project demonstrates how wireless lighting control technology can simplify installation while delivering sophisticated building-wide control.

📊 Project Highlights

2,000+ luminaires

706 sensors

267 wireless switches

17 Casambi networks

A standout feature of the project was the deployment of 267 EnOcean kinetic switches. Requiring no cabling and no batteries, these wireless energy-harvesting switches significantly reduced installation complexity while providing complete flexibility for switch placement and future space reconfiguration.

With 17 Casambi networks connected as one site, the entire building is unified into a single intelligent lighting control ecosystem, delivering seamless operation, enhanced flexibility, and simplified management across all six levels.

This project was delivered through the collaboration of an outstanding project team:

🔹 Engineer: LCI Consultants
🔹 Lighting Supplier: Integral Lighting
🔹 Wholesaler: TLE Belconnen
🔹 Electrical Contractor: Award Electrical

Projects like this highlight the real-world advantages of wireless controls—reduced infrastructure requirements, faster installation, greater adaptability, and lower ongoing maintenance costs.

A fantastic outcome for the Department of Veterans’ Affairs and another great example of how smart building technology is transforming commercial workplaces across Australia.

A great week in Auckland for Wayne and Colin, who took the opportunity to catch up and visit the impressive 137 Great North Road project.

It's always exciting to get off the screen, onto the site, and see a project taking shape firsthand. From plans and drawings to real-world progress, there's nothing quite like seeing innovative Casambi wireless lighting control solutions being brought to life.

Projects like this are made possible through strong partnerships, collaboration, and plenty of hard work behind the scenes. A huge thank you to everyone involved in helping make it happen.

We're looking forward to seeing the next stages of this fantastic development and sharing more updates along the way!
