Soraa LEDs Bring out Best in Textile design showcase
GaN-on-GaN LED company Soraa has announced that its LED lamps were chosen to illuminate fabrics on display at the Maibom Innovation Centre, the textile design showcase and collaboration studio of the Maibom GmbH Textilvertrieb company, in Germany.
To highlight Maibom's innovative textiles in its new space in Hamminkeln, Germany, architecture and lighting design firm Thomas Kolbe Design (Dusseldorf) needed lighting that would accurately accentuate the company's innovative fabrics, rather than wash out colours and effectively flatten fabric textures. The lighting design also had to enhance the Innovation Centre's industrial aesthetic while properly and comfortably illuminating workspaces and collaboration areas.
The design firm chose Soraa VIVID LED MR16-GU10 lamps with Violet-Emission 3-Phosphor (VP) technology to capture the Innovation Centre's industrial design and modern architecture and neutrally illuminate colours and whiteness of Maibom's fabrics.
Soraa's VP VIVID COLOR technology renders warm tones accurately, and achieves a colour-rendering index (CRI) of 95 and deep red (R9) rendering of 95. And unlike blue-based white LEDs without any violet emission, the company's VP NATURAL WHITE technology uses the violet emission to properly excite fluorescing brightening agents in manufactured white materials such as textiles, paper and plastics.
"Creativity is the driving force behind our passion and the Maibom Innovation Center reflects this. Soraa's lighting in our Innovation Centre is very important for the visual presentation of our fabrics and to create an atmosphere in which our customers feel comfortable and we feel inspired," said Faiban Maibom, founder of Maibom GmbH Textilvertreib.
