Ridi luminaires come closer to natural daylight

Described by Ridi as a highly distinctive and stylish suspended luminaire, the Vision-Viva is designed for commercial offices, schools, hospitals and all types of public environment. It has a novel daylight-effect panel design and is supplied with Philips ActiViva lamps to ‘energise’ the lit surroundings. These luminaires have been created by Storp Design of Germany. The front panel is optimised for use with ActiViva and daylight tubes and has a transparent metalised-backed lens to create a natural skylight effect once it is edge lit by the 17000 K colour-enhanced daylight tubes. Mike Attard, managing director of Ridi UK, explains, ‘Philips ActiViva is the most significant development in lamp technology for years, and partnering this ground-breaking lamp with our Vision luminaire is the perfect fit. Vision-Viva will appeal to designers and specifiers seeking a luminaire that matches refined appearance with first-class performance in all areas.’ These luminaires deliver both direct and indirect lighting and have integral switching to provide independent control of downward and upward light levels. Three T5 Activa lamps are fitted, one of which delivers light upwards. The efficiency, design and performance of Vision-Viva allows wide spacings with very uniform lighting distribution.
