Kitchen lighting

Kitchen lighting redefined with LumiQ

From functional lighting for work to atmospheric ambient lighting, LumiQ offers the perfect lighting for any occasion.

Today, the kitchen is more than just a place to cook. It is a meeting place and communication hub for both everyday and special moments. Different situations and times of day place high demands on lighting. This is because light not only affects how we work but also how we feel. next125 presents an intelligently designed, comprehensive lighting system in the form of LumiQ.

Why kitchen lighting is so important

In very few other rooms do function and emotion come together as openly as in the kitchen. When cutting, preparing and serving, focussed, glare-free lighting is essential, while social gatherings require a warm, homely atmosphere. Accordingly, different times of day and uses call for flexible lighting solutions.

LumiQ blends in harmoniously with the kitchen architecture and provides balanced lighting. Work areas are evenly lit with no dazzle, while indirect LED strips fully illuminate drawers and pull-outs.

Swift setup and intuitive controls

next125 spent several years developing a seamless lighting system together with lighting specialist Häfele. The result is an innovative system that does not see kitchen lighting as a stand-alone feature but as an integral part of the architecture.

Using the app, all integrated lights can also be individually controlled, dimmed and grouped, and the light colour can be adjusted. One particularly practical feature is that individual lighting sequences can be saved and accessed at any time. In a matter of seconds, the kitchen lighting can be transformed to create a functional working environment or an atmospheric living space. 

When switching the kitchen lighting on and off, coordinated light signatures automatically come into play that give the kitchen a special atmosphere. 

When light becomes part of the furniture

The true innovation of LumiQ lies not in its separate functions but in the interplay of each and every detail. In the thoughtfully designed room lighting. In the perfectly illuminated work surfaces. In the natural way that the light adapts to each and every situation as desired.

Indirect light sources like plinth and open shelf unit lighting give the kitchen depth and make it feel inviting, while focussed lighting solutions boost functionality. The result is a room that is both technically sophisticated and emotionally appealing.
