Light creates atmosphere, determines how we see, and has a direct impact on our mood. This makes the right lighting concept for living spaces all the more important.
Hotel, restaurant & bar
As places to take time out, hotels and restaurants should above all offer a pleasant ambience.
Office
Office lighting must both meet standard specifications and create a pleasant working environment that enhances concentration.
Meeting rooms
One room, many functions: Modern meeting rooms are equipped to serve a variety of purposes, from meetings to presentations.
Entrance hall & lobby
The entrance area is where the first impression of a building is formed, both in terms of the feeling of space and orientation.
Corridors
Access zone lighting ensures safety and spatial orientation.
Staircases
Appropriate lighting in stairwells boosts safety. In the event of a fire, the upper floors of a building must be exited via the stairwell. Excellent visibility is crucial here.
Sanitary facilities
Luminaires with a higher degree of protection are required in sanitary facilities and wherever water is involved.
Secondary rooms
Lighting in ancillary rooms such as storerooms, printer rooms, or server rooms is primarily functional.
Classrooms
Light has a significant impact on learning success. Carefully planned classroom lighting has been shown to increase the attention and well-being of students.
Lecture halls
New, technically supported teaching methods and formats at universities and other tertiary education institutions place increased demands on lighting design.
Library
Libraries should create a friendly atmosphere while enabling focused work over many hours.
Sports hall
The most significant role lighting design plays in sports halls is safety. Sufficient protection prevents luminaires from being damaged by ball impacts.
Kindergarten
Since kindergartens and day-care centres are often the first unfamiliar environments children find themselves in, they need lighting conditions that inspire trust.
Shops
In retail, the focus is on presenting goods attractively. This requires different lighting depending on the product range.
Museum
There is hardly any other place where colour fidelity is as crucial as in a museum.
Hospital & nursing home
Circadian light has been shown to promote recovery and regeneration.
Outdoor
XAL's outdoor luminaires bundle a discreet appearance, robust design, and powerful lighting technology for demanding environmental conditions.
