Our circadian lighting
We'll explain it to you.
Support your biological rhythm
Dynamic light
Color temperature variation
Our circadian lighting changes the color scheme of white light, from the soft glow of a candle at 1800K to the dazzling brilliance of the midday sun at 6500K. This variation in color temperature is not only a pleasure for the eyes; it is essential for synchronizing your internal clock with the natural rhythm of day and night.
At the heart of this luminous experience is the dynamic melanopic ratio. It subtly adjusts throughout the day, optimally influencing your energy, concentration and sleep cycle. In the morning, soft, warm light gently wakes you up, while the intensity gradually increases, preparing you to face the day with vigor.
Variations in power
Our technology doesn't just vary in color; it also adapts in power. In the morning and evening, when the need for light is less, our system reduces its power, creating a soothing atmosphere while optimizing energy consumption.
This intelligent power management is not only beneficial for your well-being, it is also beneficial for the planet. By reducing energy consumption at key times of the day, we contribute to a more sustainable environment. During the day, the light is powerful enough to meet your needs without excess, ensuring a perfect balance between light efficiency and ecological responsibility.
The spring solstice
Our circadian lighting cycle is inspired by the spring solstice, a time when nature awakens and balances. This natural reference guides the design of our lighting system, ensuring that each variation of light faithfully reflects the rhythm of the sun.
Based on the average of the sun's curves observed during the spring solstice, our lighting reproduces the most harmonious solar cycle for humans. This approach ensures that every moment of your day is illuminated in a way that supports your well-being, in harmony with the Earth's natural rhythms.

For us, the light profile is a sequence of light variations that we calculate using the sunrise and sunset times. By following this information, we build a light profile suitable for everyone.
We have made dynamic light possible over 24 hours.
Human-centered light
Morning light
Visible light:
At daybreak, our morning light emits a soft warm glow, simulating the first rays of the sun. This visible light, gentle on the eyes, helps you emerge peacefully from sleep, creating a soothing atmosphere that invites you to wake up.
Circadian light:
This phase of lighting is designed to align your internal clock with the natural cycle of the day. Mimicking dawn, circadian light gently stimulates your body, signaling that it's time to wake up, facilitating a smooth transition from sleep to wakefulness.
The melanopic ratio:
The melanopic ratio is initially low in the morning, providing light that does not abruptly disrupt your sleep cycle. Gradually, this ratio increases, helping to reduce the production of melatonin (the sleep hormone) and stimulate wakefulness and attention.
In the middle of the day
Visible light:
During the middle of the day, the light becomes brighter and whiter, reflecting the maximum brightness of the sun. This clarity improves focus and energy, essential for the day's activities, while being comfortable on the eyes.
Circadian light:
At this time of day, our circadian lighting is optimized to support your productivity and alertness. It mimics the high light intensity of the midday sun, which is crucial for maintaining a healthy circadian rhythm and promoting optimal well-being.
The melanopic ratio:
The melanopic ratio is at its highest during the day, which boosts alertness and energy. This blue-enriched light helps maintain high levels of cortisol, the hormone that keeps you active and focused.
The evening
Visible light:
As the evening approaches, our lighting adopts warmer, softer hues, reminiscent of the sunset. This visible light creates a relaxing atmosphere, perfect for unwinding after a busy day.
Circadian light:
Evening circadian lighting is designed to prepare your body for rest. By gradually reducing light intensity, it signals your body clock that it's time to start winding down and preparing for sleep.
The melanopic ratio:
In the evening, the melanopic ratio decreases, promoting melatonin production and helping your body prepare for a night of restful sleep. This gradual reduction mimics the natural decrease in daylight, helping to maintain a healthy sleep cycle.

The melanopic ratio is low, giving you time to get up gently with soft, warm light.
To help you get through this morning, we aid in the natural production of cortisol, the stress hormone by boosting the melanopic ratio to help you wake up.
During the day, we maintain a high level of melanopic ratio to continue to stay full of energy. Your body will know that it is in the active phase.
The early evening phase is essential, we gradually reduce the light power and the melanopic ratio to promote the gradual appearance of melatonin, the sleep hormone.
We optimize our light to help the secretion of melatonin, the sleep hormone. Here, it is forbidden to set a high melanopic ratio level.
