Human-centric

According to LPT, the human-centric light trend is quickly getting traction. Correlated color shifting (CCT) of LED bulbs fall under this category. CCT helps regulate one’s circadian rhythm, moods, visual acuity, and performance.

The main feature of this light fixture is that it moves according to a person’s different needs and moods when you’re working. The brightness of their light fixture can be controlled by sliding its dial from one side to the other, when it is rotated, the temperature of the light can also be controlled. This light fixture can be used in various locations such as shelves, headboards, study and work desks, the kitchen, and so on.
