The key feature of any lamp – the naked light bulb – may be effective, but it is also merciless. The more light it gives, the more potentially destructive it is to its surroundings. Its hard light blinds the eye and does nothing good for the atmosphere in a room.

The job of a good lamps is to transform the light from the bulb before this light meets its surroundings. To disperse the rays with purposeful direction, leading them to exactly where we need them and to waste as few rays as possible in the process. To create light which is as comfortable as it is useful, for both eyes and souls.

LC Shutters has been design with the purpose of transforming hard to soft.

The hard light of a single powerful bulb is filtered through this perforated shade, resulting in a completely different, gentle ambience. Close to the intimacy of candlelight, yet far more effective.

An initially flat sheet of dense aluminium is machined until a soft rolling landscape is achieved. By slicing and punching the form throughout, the shade is given two interacting layers, in between which the light can tease its way through, giving the shade a life of its own, where shadows play, but nothing is left in darkness.

LC Shutters is an accommodating lamp. It is rounded and easy on the eye. The lamp blends very naturally into its surroundings, regardless of the lifestyle or interior design.

LC Shutters spreads light softly and comfortably. The diffused light is particularly suitable for illuminating a conference table. Diffusion provides participants at your meeting with comfortable and honest lighting – essential for effective communication. The lamp also helps create a homely atmosphere if the often cold, functional nakedness of a conference room. Good lighting creates good dialogue.
