Below are the key lighting trends for 2019:
Eco-lighting
As the world becomes more conscious about the environment particularly in the reduction of waste and the promotion of recycling, lighting products are also responding to this call.
The Hook portable eco-lamp for one, designed by OiKo Design Office for Faro Barcelona, has been optimized for all stages of their life cycle, reducing the environmental impact between 30 percent and 70 percent. Free of harmful PVC, a harmful material present in most wires and plugs, the housings of The Hook portable eco-lamp are also made entirely of recycled plastic.

Another lighting trend that is fast gaining traction is human-centric design. Proponents of this movement say that CCT shifting, which refers to the correlated color temperature of LED bulbs, can help regulate circadian rhythms, moods, visual acuity and one’s performance.
Towards this end, Bohman&Folenius created the Inviting Light for home lighting, whose main characteristic is how the light moves to accompany you according to your different needs and moods. The head of the lamp adjusts both in its horizontal and vertical axis, while regulating light intensity, changes in color temperature, and also has a dimmable feature.
Its various versions—table, wall or clip—allow for multiple locations, such as shelving units, headboards, study and work desks, as well as in the kitchen.

Multi-functional
Consumers of today now also seek out lighting solutions that can replace multiple pieces of equipment, in their desire for value for money as well as space-saving needs especially for those who reside in condominium units.
Thus, the stylish NIKO by Nahtrang—a homage to scientist and inventor Nikolai Tesla—was borne, which is actually two objects in one: a lamp and mobile charger, with a surface on which we can charge our smartphone without cables getting in the way. With its Nordic design with dual functionality, NIKO is perfect for illuminating bedrooms and living rooms, and is a good choice for hotels.

Mobility
Another interesting trend coming to the
fore is mobility in lighting products, which is a response to those who are
more outdoorsy in nature. The Take Away lamp designed by Nahtrang addresses this need, taking
inspiration from lanterns coupled with the versatility of Japanese ceramic
bowls: small, light, cable-free, and nomadic—allowing it to be placed anywhere.

| Akane by Pepe Llaudet |
Landlite took the opportunity as well to
present its other range of lighting solutions: the Le Vita by Nahtrang,
delicate and simple in design; the MOY by Nahtrang, a modern round light that provides
a uniform illumination ideal for living rooms or busy areas; the Cometa which
allows for uniform and high-quality illumination with anti-glare technology; and
designer lamps inspired by different world cultures such as the Akane by Pepe
Llaudet and the Aladino.
