Sound-Absorbing Lights

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Onespace by Philips Covers Entire Ceilings in an LED Panel

— April 2, 2014 — Art & Design
This LED panel by Philips is actually a sound-absorbing light fixture. Many lights these days are more of an afterthought upon completion of a building, but Philips is hoping that this product will make lighting more integrated with the architectural process.

The lighting is seamlessly integrated with the ceiling, as the large surface is made out of a mesh texture, which hides the LED lights behind its facade. This lighting is also much more natural than most products seen in the home, allowing one to feel more like they would when outside rather than cooped up in a smaller space. For anyone that cannot stand being stuck inside all day, this could cheer up someone's mood when the weather does not want to cooperate.

This LED panel lighting could change how people think about brightening up their home.
