Ambient
Even wash, 2700–3000 K for evenings.
Residential lighting for Graz homes — layered ambient, task, and accent plans for Jakomini flats, Lend lofts, and quiet courtyards off Herrengasse.

Counters, desks, and reading chairs need directed light that does not fight the ambient field. In narrow Lend kitchens we keep glare off polished stone and glass splashbacks. See task lighting
A single niche, a stair reveal, or a courtyard tree outside a Jakomini window can carry the scene after dimming. Accent is sparse on purpose. Entry & accent paths
Gründerzeit ceilings and modern loft shells both punish single-source pendant strategies. Tall rooms swallow light; low renovations bounce it harshly off white plaster. A three-layer stack keeps each surface working at its own intensity.
We measure existing circuits before proposing new runs, so landlords in rented Jakomini flats can upgrade without full rewiring when that is the brief.
Lend’s converted warehouses often have exposed concrete that drinks warm light; we lean slightly cooler on ambient and warmer on task so skin tones stay natural at the dining table. Jakomini street-facing rooms fight sodium spill from outside — blackout and dimming scenes matter as much as fixture choice.

Most commissions start with a Layer Audit at €190, then move into Ambient Base or Full Stack packages listed on our pricing page. Fixture budgets stay separate so you can mix Austrian and EU suppliers without padded markups on lamps you already own.
Typical full-stack concepts for a two-bedroom Graz flat land between €2.400 and €4.800 for design and specification, excluding installation labour.
We walk the rooms with a lux meter and a camera, then return a layered drawing set and a Kelvin–use–mood table you can hand to an electrician. Dimming scenes are named in plain language — Evening, Cook, Host — not proprietary codes.
Follow-up visits after install fine-tune trim and scene levels once furniture is in place.
If evenings feel gloomy, begin with ambient. If the kitchen counter is useless after dusk, start with task. If the entry feels like a tunnel from Herrengasse, we prioritise threshold lighting before living-room polish.
