• Architectural lighting is more than light in a space. At the intersection of engineering, tech, art and design, architectural lighting upgrades spaces for breathtaking illumination, evoking a desired feeling and functionality


  • Whether you are an LED module buyer for a big lighting company, a small business owner developing your own lighting fixtures, or a stay-at-home mom buying LED lights for your home, there are key features that you should know when buying LEDs.


  • The lighting industry has been buzzing with news of solid-state light source advancements for several years. As one light-emitting diode (LED) lighting fixture manufacturer puts it, flat printed circuit boards versus bulbous or tubular linear sources open up a whole new world of design possibilities. Now, the LED and its sister technology, the organic light-emitting diode (OLED) two light sources that constitute solid-state lighting — have the potential to replace many light sources that either heat a tungsten filament to incandescence or use a pair of filaments within a glass envelope to create an ionized arc stream.


  • Us, as humans, have a unique way to know when we are tired and when we need to hit the hay. Our bodies are able to communicate with our brain and release a chemical called melatonin (you’ve probably taken it as a supplement for your insomnia) to help get to sleep soundly. This process is known as our body's circadian rhythm. This rhythm is affected by light; natural and artificial.


  • We are in unprecedented times of a pandemic that is affecting the global community, at a scale we have never seen before. Financial ramifications of the coronavirus, COVID-19, are taking hold at the world’s largest LED lighting companies. As number two Osram said, it will not hit its 2020 targets, and industry leader Signify notified OEM customers that the “force majeure” is prompting price increases (Halper, LED Magazine).
