Mexico. Workplace wellness advocate Humanscale introduces the two new task lights, Nova and Horizon 2.0, which use advanced LED technology for greater comfort, optimal light output and energy-saving electrical efficiency.
Nova and Horizon offer a smarter choice for offices and the environment. "As the lines between the office and the home blur, products must offer functionality combined with a simple, clean aesthetic. Nova and Horizon 2.0 are highly versatile LED task lights that combine industry-leading technology with contemporary yet timeless design," said Alberto Elizondo, Director for Latin America and the Caribbean at Humanscale. "We are thrilled to introduce these new lighting additions that are at the forefront of sustainability and performance."
Nova and Horizon 2.0 reduce eye strain and improve overall comfort by providing a light that intuitively adjusts for a variety of activities, from reading documents to writing emails. With these new additions that improve ergonomic health and productivity, Humanscale continues to demonstrate its leadership and advances in the desktop lighting category.
While natural light in the workplace is widely recognized as a positive influence on productivity, creativity, and mood, it is just one of the many light sources needed to fully address wellness. Today, with the plethora of backlit displays, desk lighting as a complement to natural or ambient lighting has never been more important to the optimal employee experience.
Nova
Designed to complement any work surface and enhance any interior design, the new Nova work light offers infinite adaptability in a striking and sculptural way. With a custom lens and a wide-range multi-chip LED, Nova creates a smooth, glare-free light. This new ergonomic design protects the eyes against tension, faithfully highlights colors and produces a single shadow on the work surface. With precise and effortless control, Nova illuminates and attenuates any space with the touch of a finger. Its responsive counterweight arms swing 180 degrees while its revolutionary "Forever Hinge" hinge ensures that the light position remains secure. Sustainably designed, Nova received Energy Star certification and contributes to leed, WELL and Living Building Challenge standards. Its advanced occupancy sensors, which recognize the lack of movement, automatically turn off the light to save energy and costs. Responding to today's needs for smart and efficient lighting with a timeless aesthetic, Nova will be able to complement the design in both the medium and long term. This ergonomic tool is available in two sizes and three colors: black, gray and white
Horizon 2.0
Enhancing michael McCoy and Peter Stasis's prestigious Red-Dot Product winning design, Humanscale's Horizon 2.0 implements the latest LED technology for the best and most efficient lighting. Committed to the use of healthy and sustainable materials, Humanscale's Horizon 2.0 uses TPU material, an alternative to PVC, in its power supply. At the base of the task light, it has a seamless touch interface for more precise control and adjustment of brightness. As a result, Horizon 2.0 features a cleaner aesthetic complemented by its sleek, slim base. This state-of-the-art design raises the bar for task lighting and will no doubt inspire, like its predecessor, the permanent collection at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA). You can find it in six vibrant colors.
