Indirect linear ambient

This approach uses suspended linear LED fixtures that direct light upward to bounce off the ceiling, creating soft, diffused illumination that cannot create specular reflections in screens regardless of desk orientation.

Medium Mid-Range Featured
Approach Detail

Mount linear fixtures at 300-400mm below ceiling with 100% indirect distribution or 80/20 up/down ratio. Space fixtures 2-3m apart for uniform ceiling wash. Use matt white ceiling with minimum 85% reflectance. Achieve 400-500 lux on desks through reflected light only.

Key Fixtures

Suspended indirect linear systems (Zumtobel LIGHT FIELDS, Trilux Lateralo, iGuzzini Laser Blade XS), pendant indirect luminaires, cove lighting systems

Designer Notes

Renders show soft, shadow-free environment with visible ceiling glow. Emphasize the calm, uniform quality. Avoid harsh shadows on faces - the indirect approach creates flattering illumination for video calls as a bonus. Consider adding subtle downlight component for sparkle.

Best For
Open plan offices with flexible desk layouts, hot-desking environments, spaces with high ceilings allowing suspension, organizations prioritizing employee comfort.
