"Green" Lighting

“Green”Lighting (NAPSA)—When it comes to energy efficiency, LED (light-emitting diode) lights can be a bright idea. There are several reasons why: LED technology is longer lasting andless toxic than fluorescent options. The lights radiate very little heat that can damage sensitive objects and fabrics, making them an excellent choice for table, floor and desk lamps. Compared to traditional incandescent or fluorescent bulbs, LED technologies have lower energy consumption and a longer life, and offer ony lighting options ranging from the Abyss Table sculptural to the Lamp functional. Even classic lighting fixtures can benefit from LED’s bright, energy-efficient light sources. For example, the Artemide Tolomeo Classic Table Lamp is a sleek lamp with modern styling that uses LEDsfor greater energyefficiency and reliability without losing the feel and functionality of a classically designed piece. While LED technologies can be used in traditional lighting, their size and low-heat output offer creative options, such as the Moooi Raimond Suspension Light, a new sculptural fixture that’s as much a piece of art as a functional source of light. LEDs can operate for more than 50,000 hours; incandescents for just 1,000. This means the simply styled Ninety Task Light, considered “the world’s most energyefficient LED task light,” can be a superbly efficient, functional modern masterpiece for years.
