An interesting talk by Brad Koerner about DC-Powered Buildings
Solar panels are becoming a popular way to generate energy for homes, offices, and other buildings. However, the way energy is distributed within buildings is typically AC-based, while many devices and lighting systems run on DC power. As a result, the energy from solar panels must be converted from DC to AC and then back […]
Acoustic absorption panels improve the comfort and room quality of interior spaces. The LUOlight system connects with acoustical elements that are cut from rectangular 12mm strong boards. We provide flat circular infill panels that are used with the small D85 circle as well as 3-dimensional inlays that appear like sculptures. The shapes are the result […]
Jätkä is a wooden luminaire that has an optical turning mechanism on its top. Similar to a pepper mill its head with an eccentrically placed COB LED can be rotated. By doing so the light beam is widened or narrowed. At the same time, the LED moves over a translucent sheet that dims the light. […]

We have created a SketchUp model for our LUO-light that is now available on google warehouse or it can be downloaded from here, too.
We are very happy that LUOlight found a showroom where it is now installed for customers to experience its various properties. The space is in the former Nordea bank premises in Roihupelto, Helsinki easily reachable by metro or by car. Here you can experience LUO´s different shading options and optical properties as well as configure […]
We had a rare opportunity to contribute to a high-level art project that is shown from December to March 2020 at the Helsinki Art Museum HAM. This video shows impressions from the Nostalgia artwork by Jaakko Niemelä. For this project, we were commissioned to simulate the destruction of a huge container ship and capture the […]
