Illumination during television viewing

Preserve your eyes while watching TV. When you watch television, having background lighting further back is comfortable for your eyes. Do not mount a ceiling luminaire directly above the TV set to avoid streaks of light on the screen. Gentle indirect illumination, realised with LED strips, offers an excellent solution. In this case, a luminaire can be placed in front of a bay window so light is dispersed through a curtain and reflected off surfaces. You can use decorative lights to add another layer to your lighting and to create a cosy, intimate atmosphere for evenings.

Table and wall lamps for desks

Illuminate desks, sideboards and hobby tables. Some ranges include both wall- and ceiling-mounted models, which help create a harmonious appearance for your home and allow you to adjust lighting levels. If you have your home office in your living room, pay attention to ergonomic lighting conditions. In an office space, illumination must be sufficiently bright, even and glare-free. Our desk lamp ranges include freestanding and clamp-on models.
