The Martin Luther King Court House was originally designed with several large skylights to allow for natural lighting of their courtroom. It was soon realized that an excess of natural light could be a distraction in the rooms proceeding. DEL Motorized Solutions was able to manufacture a cellular skylight system which allowed them to regain control of their lighting environment.
