Home Office Lamps Overview
Lighting Solutions for Focused Work
A good office lamp helps you stay focused while reducing strain on your eyes. Whether you work from home or at a traditional workplace, the right lighting makes your everyday routine much more comfortable. At EGLO, you’ll find office lamps that combine function and design in a thoughtful way. From ceiling lights to targeted task lighting, every office lamp provides light exactly where you need it. Whether you’re looking for a lamp for your study or want to optimise your setup, our selection helps you illuminate your office efficiently and stylishly.
Ceiling Lights for Offices and Studies
A ceiling-mounted study lamp forms the basis for even room illumination. Especially if you spend a lot of time at your desk, a well-balanced study lamp is essential for comfortable working. For offices and studies, around 250–300 lumens per m² are recommended to ensure the room is bright enough. Combined with neutral white light (3,300–5,300 Kelvin), this creates a clear, functional lighting atmosphere that supports your concentration.
When choosing your lighting:
Small rooms: compact ceiling lights
Larger rooms: multiple light sources or wide light distribution
Office Lighting
The right office lighting consists of several light sources. Office lamps should not only provide sufficient brightness but also be positioned strategically.
A typical combination includes:
Ceiling light for general lighting
Desk lamp for direct task lighting
Additional light sources for the room
This creates a balanced lighting concept in which your office lamps work together perfectly. A well-positioned office lamp reduces shadows and provides comfortable working conditions without visual fatigue.
Home Office Lighting
Home office lighting often has to fulfil several purposes at once. The room serves as a workspace but is frequently used for other activities as well. That is why a flexible lighting solution is especially important. A combination of ceiling lighting and targeted task lighting ensures good visibility throughout the working day. Around 250–300 lm/m² is generally recommended for general lighting. Desk lamps or additional light sources can then be used to illuminate the work area more precisely. The result is lighting that supports focused work while blending harmoniously into your living space.
LED Lamps for Offices and Studies
Many modern study lamps use LED technology. These workspace lamps provide even light distribution and are suitable for a wide range of office setups. LED lighting offers practical features for office environments, including instant full brightness and, depending on the model, flicker-free light. For your workspace, light colours between 3,300 and 5,300 Kelvin are recommended. This neutral white light helps maintain focus throughout the day.
Desk Lamps for Focused Work
Desk lamps are among the most important light sources in a study. They complement the general lighting by providing focused illumination on the work surface. Neutral white light (3,300–5,300 K) is commonly chosen for desks, as it supports concentration and makes reading documents or working at a screen easier. Models with an adjustable lamp head allow you to direct the light exactly where it is needed.
Task Lighting in the Office
Task lighting complements your general lighting with focused illumination. Around 400–700 lumens directly at the desk is recommended so that documents and computer screens remain clearly visible. Position the light source to the side of your workspace to minimise shadows and screen reflections.
Indirect Office Lighting
Indirect office lighting creates a calm and pleasant atmosphere. The light is reflected from walls or the ceiling, producing soft and even illumination throughout the room. Light-coloured walls reflect around 70–85% of the light, helping to brighten the space without causing glare. In smaller home office areas, floor lamps with adjustable arms can also be a practical solution, providing additional light without taking up valuable desk space.
