How to illuminate your bedroom

Over a lifetime, you'll likely spend more hours in your bedroom than in any other room, so it's crucial to create the perfect sanctuary. Choosing the right bedside lamps is essential for creating a calm and pleasant atmosphere, helping your eyes adjust as you prepare to sleep or wake up:

Decide on the style

Create a classic expression with a table lamp on the bedside table or keep the bedside table uncluttered and clean with a wall mounted lamp.

For evening readers

Try dimmable and directional lighting that allows you to adjust the light intensity and angle for direct illumination on the text.

Where comfort meets illumination

A lamp that diffuses light more widely in the room can be a better option if you watch tv at night to secure that your pupils don't get strained.

Select the right color temperature

Light temperature between 2200 and 2700 kelvin should be the aim for the bedroom to achieve a soft and warm atmosphere. With lampshades you are allowed to choose the bulb yourself, offering flexibility.

Small bedrooms

In small bedrooms, consider mounting a lamp directly above the bed to maximize the space.

Transform your space with the right illumination

Available in two lengths and various colours, the Asteria Wall lamp is highly flexible with adjustable brightness.

Featuring a tranquil wooden design, the Komorebi lamp is perfect for the bedroom, directing light both upwards and downwards to illuminate the room effectively.

The Omni Wall lamp provides focused yet wide-spread light, is dimmable, and can be directed to both sides.

A small, cordless lamp with four light settings, the Asteria Move emits downward light, creating a calm atmosphere without spreading light throughout the room.
