glare Glare happens ... ... when sunlight hits your eye directly. The same effect occurs when lights with light intense bulbs without any blends are used, such as a 75-watt low voltage halogen floodlight. There should be no glare in a well-lightened room.

TIZIO 50 black table luminaire This timeless table luminaire is represented in all renowned design collections of the most important museums worldwide.. The transformer is integrated into the luminaire base, the power supply to the luminaire head occurs completely without cable but by the bars of the luminaire construction.

These luminaires are designed for applications around the house, alongside doors, gates and on pillars. The light from the luminaires is as vivid as the material. Copper forms its own protective coating and develops its distinctive character when enhanced by its resulting patina. Quality, durability and beauty are attributes which have characterized this material for centuries. manufacturer: BOOM all products made by BOOM material: hand-blown crystal bubble glass, copper

light and shadow Clear perception ... ... of objects and structures depends on the diffusion of light by a lamp, and its arrangement in a room in accordance with an object. A ceiling light with an opal glass shade creates a soft and even light with minimal formation of shadows. A narrowly shining low-voltage floodlight creates sharp-edged shadows. Hardly anything can be seen in such a shadow. It is dangerous when such lamps are used in places like landings and staircases. A combination of the above-mentioned lighting variations often is the best solution. Shadows with soft edges are ideal. Three-dimensional perception is not possible without any shadows. A room which is too evenly illuminated appears to be boring. Most people prefer their light shining from the upper left-hand corner. It prevents the emergence of shadows during the writing process.

8687 ceiling luminaire Downlights for tungsten halogen lamps with thick-walled crystal glass and reflectors of pure anodized aluminium. The glare from the main downlight is optimally suppressed by the partially frosted inside of the crystal glass. A small part of the light is directed laterally by the glass onto the ceiling and into the room, and provides additional visual comfort due to horizontal illuminance. manufacturer: Glashütte Limburg all products made by Glashütte Limburg award: iF-product design award material: crystal glass, partially frosted; reflector of pure anodized aluminium; housing white aluminium enamel Borg S pendant design luminaire Modern pendant luminaire with transparent crystal glass diffuser. The inner part of the diffuser is sandblasted to provide an additionally soft indirect light distribution. manufacturer: Otylight all products made by Otylight designer: Harbour design, 2005 material: steel brushed

colour of light The colour of light is the characteristic light of each lamp. This colour of light is measured in Kelvin. The more red parts in a light, the warmer it seems to be, and accordingly, the lower the colour temperature. The more blue parts in a light the colder a light seems to be and the colour temperature is higher. We can see a warm light in a sunset or a white candle light. The closest to this is a bulb because it produces a white and warm light of about 2,700 K with a high amount of red. Energy saving lamps exist in different colours ranging from 2,700 K up to 8,000 K. 6,000K, contain more blue and less red elements and create a light similar to daylight. They resemble the colour temperature of midday sun.

colour rendering Colour rendering is not to be mixed up ... ... with the colour of light. Colour rendering determines how close a colour of an abject is reflected to its original colour. Colour rendering is divided into different categories ranging from 1A – excellent colour rendering - to 2B – good colour rendering (such as lamps for property protection). Very good colour rendering should be given in the living area which means lamps of the category 1A should be used.

HALOS S-ADJ pendant luminaire The luminaire consists of two reflectors which can be positioned indepently to achieve different light outputs: direct, indirect or direct/indirect light. manufacturer: Tre Ci Luce all products made by Tre Ci Luce designer: Quantic, 2000 material: anodised aluminium, die cast aluminium, nylon, PBT (polybutylene terephthalate) FRAME 30 W wall luminaire Wall mounted direct/diffused luminaire with 6 mm thick tempered, etched and serigraphed glass diffuser.

comfort lighting Comfort lighting means ... ... the ability to adapt light to each situation. Lamps and groups of lamps should be switched on and dimmed separately. This can be done with a fixed switch or dimmer as well as from each point in the room via remote control. Bulbs and tungsten halogen lamps can usually be dimmed easily. If you want to dim any kind of energy saving lamps or fluorescent lamps, do not hesitate to inform us so that those lamps can be modified according to your needs if possible. Please be aware that this includes differing prices as well. Light Vision24 recommends lighting control for bigger and multifunctionally used rooms. You will be able to set and to recall different lighting scenes with the help of lighting control, such as partying, watching television, reading a book or dining.

EU labels Energy efficiency ... ... is an important criterion when choosing new lamps. It is rated in terms of a set of energy efficiency classes from A to G on the label, whereas A (dark green colour) is the most energy efficient category and G (red colour) the least efficient one. On every label, you will find additional information on the luminous flux of the bulb in lumens, the electricity consumption of the lamp in watts and the average life length in hours
