Light bulbs

  • WHICH LIGHT BULB?
  • AT HOME

When you have an idea, a bulb lights up in your head, but when you really switch on a bulb, maybe you don't have any idea of what lays behind this simple click. How much does it consume, what colour does it emit, what source is feeding it, how many lumens does it provide, does it bear any toxic substances, how long does it last, where does its light spread on? If I have to come back immediately, do I switch off the light? We want to cast light on this topic, since light abounds, specially daylight.

Keep this in mind!
Let's make the most of sunlight, it's the healthiest.

To enjoy a good visual and general health, the quantity of the light is as important as its colour.

Let us use low-consumption light bulbs, except in places where the bulb will not be burning for long, or where it will be turned off immediately, or if we need to see colours much more accurately.
