There are many ways to make your working life difficult. One of the most superfluous is an inadequate desk lamp. Ensure optimum lighting for your workplace by purchasing a desk lamp that is precisely tailored to your work situation and personal needs in terms of illumination, brightness and light color. Only with the right desk lamp can you avoid premature fatigue and a rapid drop in motivation. When choosing your desk lamp, don't be dazzled by the design, but pay attention to its functionality first and foremost. Your eyes will thank you for it.
Choosing the right lighting for the workplace, and in particular the right desk lamp, is as much about performance as it is about the design of the desk lamp. Desk lamps are considered all-rounders and are therefore just as indispensable in open-plan offices as they are in small offices. Ideally, a desk lamp should have a high light output combined with low energy consumption.
There are now desk lamps that have been specially developed for working at a computer screen and provide glare-free light. Desk lamps are officially referred to as task lights and must meet certain lighting and safety requirements. For VDU work, the illuminance of a desk lamp must be 300 lux so that the overall brightness of the work surface with general lighting is at least 300 lux. 750 lux is given. The requirements for desk lamps for the workplace are defined by the product standard DIN 5035-8 "Lighting with artificial light, Part 8: Task lights; requirements, recommendations and testing". Only if a desk lamp complies with these guidelines is it really a task light.
When choosing colors and materials for office furnishings, which also includes the desk lamp, the "corporate design" is often the decisive factor today. Many companies have "corporate colors" that are taken into account in order to achieve a uniform appearance: from the entrance carpet to the desk lamp. Accordingly, a desk lamp also has a representative function as part of a differentiated lighting design for office spaces. Some of the buzzwords of our time are "home learning" or "home office". This is why people are also interested in a suitable desk lamp when working at home. Incidentally, there are modern developments such as a desk lamp that can also be used as a so-called therapy lamp. To do this, simply point the lampshade of the desk lamp or therapy lamp upwards so that the full spectrum light from the desk lamp falls on the face. As medical research has shown that a lack of light can lead to depressive moods, a mood-lifting light shower can be easily integrated into everyday life with the help of such a desk lamp.
