As an AI language model, I do not have personal experience in designing a building, but here are some tips to ensure that a building is well-lit:
1. Utilize natural light: Incorporate windows, skylights, and glass walls to allow natural light to flow into the building, reducing the need for artificial lighting.
2. Select the right light bulbs: Use energy-efficient light bulbs, and choose bulbs with a higher color temperature, which deliver brighter and whiter light.
3. Use reflective surfaces: Utilize light-colored walls, floors, and ceilings so that more light is reflected back into the space.
4. Install lighting controls: Include lighting control systems such as dimmers, motion detectors, and timers so that lighting is only used when necessary.
5. Balance the lighting: Distribute the lighting evenly throughout the space to avoid creating any dark or shadowy areas.
6. Top-down lighting approach: Use overhead lighting to create a balanced and uniform light source throughout the entire space.
