Home office lighting
When working at a computer, what matters most is bright, even, glare-free light with no reflections on the screen. For office workstations the standard EN 12464-1 specifies roughly 500 lx on the work surface; in a home office that is a good point of reference. Below are our recommendations and luminaires.
Recommended lighting
- Light level
- 500 lx
- On the desk, following EN 12464-1 for offices. The rest of the room needs less.
- Colour temperature
- 3500–4000 K
- Neutral white 3500–4000 K light suits work. The colour temperature of all the luminaires should match.
- Colour rendering
- CRI 80+
- EN 12464-1 sets at least Ra 80 for offices; where colour accuracy matters, choose 90+.
How to plan the light
- General lighting A ceiling or pendant luminaire lights the room evenly. The light must not reflect in the screen.
- Task lighting A table luminaire with an adjustable head adds light where you read and write. Place it to the side, not in front of the screen.
- Accent lighting A wall or shelf light behind you reduces the sharp contrast between the screen and a dark wall.

The luminaires are chosen for work: desk lamps, 4000 K ceiling luminaires and pendants with CRI 90+. The full range is on the category page.

Frequently asked questions
How much light does a home office need?
The standard EN 12464-1 specifies roughly 500 lx on the work surface for office workstations. At home that value is a useful reference: the easiest way to reach it on the desk is to combine a table luminaire with general light.
What colour temperature is best for work?
Neutral white of 3500–4000 K is the usual choice for work. Warm 2700–3000 K light suits relaxing better.
How do I avoid reflections on the screen?
Place the table luminaire to the side and avoid luminaires directly behind you or in front of the screen. Light should not fall straight onto the screen, and matt diffusers reduce glare.
Does CRI matter when working?
For offices EN 12464-1 sets a minimum of Ra 80. If you work with colour, such as design or photo editing, choose a CRI of 90 or more.
