Constantly Working on Human-Centered Design

If some years ago the industry underwent a paradigm shift from conventional lighting to LED – which unleashed less energy consumption together with automated and intelligently controlled system opportunities – attention is now moving towards the so-called “human centric lighting”, which considers the impacts of artificial light quality on people’s wellbeing and emotions.

From its very beginning in 1962, Flos has incorporated a holistic human-centered philosophy of lighting design. Flos aims to play an active role in the development of new innovative solutions that are able to enhance people’s physical and emotional wellbeing.

We know that an advanced optical group allows to avoid glare and to enhance the light control. In Flos the technical research on optic elements is always ongoing.

The patented optical group at the core of the Light Shadow family of downlights, the Black Line and Circle of Light systems, or the Super Line luminaire is one of the most representative: it provides the highest standards in efficiency and comfort, like outstanding glare protection, homogeneity in light distribution and delivered level of lighting (measured in lux) compliant to the most strict standards of the industry.
