Good studio lighting is important for visual art work. In addition to simply being able to properly see what you are doing, the accuracy of the colour you are working with is important. That’s where Daylight Lighting is helpful – both for getting some light where you need it with lamps that have a clamp, floor stand or table stand, and for allowing you to see your colours accurately.
Reduced Eye Strain
Daylight Lamps use full spectrum Daylight technology so your eyes will still be fresh at the end of the day. No headaches, no red-eyes, working under Daylight is as relaxing and natural as a walk in the park.
The Best Colour Matching Ever
Daylight allows you to see colours just the way they are.
Energy Saving
All Daylight bulbs and tubes use 80% less energy and last 10-times longer. When you work with your lamp, you reduce your electricity bill and do your bit for the planet.
Low Heat
Even if you touch the shade or tube of your lamp by accident, you will be safe. All the bulbs and tubes use the Daylight low heat technology for ultimate comfort and safety.
