Intensity The right lighting level can best be determined by the individual’s visual ability and the task itself. Moreover, basic planning parameters and current standards for workplaces must be taken into account. Direction Light is a tool for architectural design. By varying luminance and light distribution the general atmosphere of a space can shift instantly, which can have a major impact on communication, creativity and easing of tension. Colour The human body reacts to the colour temperature of light. While cooler, blueish light colours activate, warmer, reddish light colours have a soothing...

A sky for the office It is a well-known fact in architecture: The bigger the cubic content, the more difficult it is to guide daylight into the inner areas. MELLOW LIGHT plays with light. It brings the depth of the room to life in the mellow colours of the sky until late at night. Walls and ceilings begin to breathe and give people a renewed sense of outdoor freedom.

“1988 - the birth of the MELLOW LIGHT series. The initial design was a square recessed luminaire with two concave metal reflectors painted white. The light source, a compact fluorescent lamp, was covered by a perforated plate. The white luminaire on a white ceiling created a whole new aesthetic and quickly became a popular design tool for many architects.” Harald Schwarzer Product Manager of the first generation of MELLOW LIGHT

“When asked to redefine MELLOW LIGHT, an icon in the world of office lighting, we were not only tasked with writing the next chapter in a long history of archetypal Zumtobel design, but also changing the way we engage with workplace lighting. Taking design cues from the previous five generations of MELLOW LIGHT luminaires, we referenced this iconic vernacular to shape the future of workplace lighting.” Daniel Stromborg Practice Area Leader, Gensler

Daylight and an interplay of colours The closer artificial light comes to resemble daylight, the more invigorating the effect that it has on people. Science has often tried to explain this phenomenon, but we can already feel the effect in the mellow glow of MELLOW LIGHT, with the kind of dynamic lighting characteristics that we normally associate with daylight. This is the ideal solution for computer work and in spaces where reflections have to be eliminated and moods need to be created – even using the changing colours of the sky on request. The minimalist look helps the luminaire integrate...

MELLOW LIGHT evolution / infinity Greater design freedom through controllable light channels MELLOW LIGHT evolution Brightness spreads gently and uniformly through the space – as natural as daylight. The well-balanced illumination of the work surface, wall and ceiling creates an open, bright atmosphere in the room and helps prevent glare and irritating shadows. The perfectly dispersed LED points remain invisible.

MELLOW LIGHT infinity The lighting can be adjusted flexibly to suit different needs and situations thanks to separately controllable light channels. The two lighting wings create a pleasant background brightness to give the room an inviting atmosphere. Switching on the direct light component in the middle supplies the work surface with perfectly targeted light. 2nd channel Activity-based lighting This advanced form of light optimisation adjusts the lighting in line with the particular activity that is being carried out in the space. Activity-based lighting represents the further evolution of...

Lighting effect Gentle homogeneity or outstanding glare suppression Crystal optic This re-interpretation of the classic lens optic guarantees glare-free illumination with up to 4800 lumens. This makes it ideal for areas that require more than 500 lux or where there are greater distances between the luminaires. The contrast with the diffuse lighting wings also creates some impressive lighting effects

Lighting wings The mild diffuse light from the wings softly brightens up the room – as light as a feather. The result is a pleasant atmosphere with no shadows. Lenticular optic Prism louvres create a gentle and homogeneous appearance while offering excellent glare suppression with up to 3500 lumens. The UGR < 19 classification, this complies with the applicable standards for DSE workstations

MELLOW LIGHT evolution / infinity in a variety of colour

Architecture gains greater freedom of design with more colours. While the white luminaire can be discreetly integrated into drywall ceilings, the silver version creates a flexible transition between the fitting and the exposed concrete. If highlights are required, choose from additional versions in brown, black and naturally anodised aluminium. The optional colours can be easily viewed and ordered from the online product catalogue in the myMELLOW LIGHT section.

Just like in natural surroundings Bright rooms with fewer shadows are typical for MELLOW LIGHT. Just like daylight, the luminaire supports the human biorhythm with dynamic colours of 3000 K to 6000 K. Control the light separately or together The brilliant direct light component and the gentle lighting wings can be used separately or together. In combination with the ATIVO sensor, the light is switched automatically between workplace and ambient lighting. Different optics The lenticular optic offers glare suppression with up to 3500 lumens and a homogeneous appearance. Thanks to a shielded lumen...
