24 @ Hollands Licht
Dutch lighting label Hollands Licht just introduced 24, a clever design by newcomer Julia Raymakers. 24 is a dynamic lighting design that helps to align your daily rhythm by providing the right light for every time of the day. This principle is called Human Centric lighting. It allows individual control of the colour temperature and/or the light intensity, in plain words: the light is adjusted to the desired function and mood of the moment. Switch between living and working 24 includes two light sources which provide direct and indirect light. The LED strip is multifunctional by being dimmable and adjustable in colour temperature from 2700K to 4000K. It provides general lighting for focus, working and concentration as well as warm light for breakfast and lunch. The LED spot provides intimate light for cosy and relaxed occasions. Both sources can be switched on/off and adjusted in light intensity independently by integrated touch dimmers. The fixture can rotate 360° which makes it possible to switch between working and living 24 hours a day. Sustainable design and manufacturing 24 is designed, developed, and produced in the Netherlands where we work together with local craftsmen. The complete fixture is handmade in a social working place by people who have a distance to the labour market and society. This way we do not only support these people, but we also limit our CO2 emission by staying close to home. About Julia Julia Raymakers, who studied Industrial Design at the Technical University Delft, is driven by the continuous search for more social and environmental friendly design that contributes to a better world, now and in the future. UNICEF calculated that in 2050 70% of the world population will live in cities. With the design of 24 Julia is responding to this trend, as co-working and co-living will get more common every day. This asks for smart solutions such as 24.   [gallery columns="4" ids="13958,13957,13956,13955"]     [embed]https://youtu.be/UuYuvZG7Pd0[/embed]
