Bring spaces alive

Philips luminous textile is a revolutionary lighting concept

“I expect architects and lighting designers to be inspired by it. They can imagine the patterns, colours and the flow of light over the fabric and see it brought to life.”

Imagine creating a dynamic space with the power to engage and attract, surprise and delight, uplift and inspire. One that’s so flexible you can change it to reflect every mood and moment. That’s the beauty of luminous textile. The new way to express emotions, add drama and bring spaces to life.

 

Luminous textile is a revolutionary new way to enhance interiors with light, texture and dynamic visual content. A totally unique ambient lighting system, it integrates multi-coloured LEDs seamlessly within beautiful white or coloured textile panels. The result is a “mood wall” that can integrate lighting into a building’s architecture and emphasise the concept of any room. And because of the range of fabrics and the sheer flexibility of the content, its creative potential is phenomenal.

 

As a sensory experience it is like nothing you’ve ever seen before. The combination of soft, diffused light and the aesthetics of the material create a very special effect that has an almost dreamlike quality. With total design freedom and completely customisable content, luminous textile makes the possibilities for mood creation endless.

 

The soft texture of the panels also soothes the auditory senses. Unlike hard materials such as glass, concrete and steel that create acoustic problems of their own, luminous textile helps to dampen noise and soften echoes. Luminous textile panels can play a decorative, as well as practical role everywhere from spacious office reception areas and restaurants to hotels and airport lounges.


Content freedom

 

With our patented LED technology you can create any atmosphere or mood and upload and manage it in a simple way. Use our standard content portfolio to add decorative effects, produce natural ambiences or reinforce a brand identity. Or customise the content to create your own personal look and feel. There are endless ways to play with colour, movement and light to create atmosphere and attract attention.

Beautiful textures

 

Kvadrat soft touch textiles bring an extra dimension to luminous textile. The combination of fluid content on colourful fabrics with different textures stimulates the senses to heighten emotions and enhance moods. And with a choice of rich colours and the quality of the textiles you can be sure that the panels will always look stunning – even when the dynamic content has been switched off.

Softened sound

 

 

Luminous textile panels can help to soften the acoustics of spaces because of the sound-dampening nature of the fabric. What’s more, thanks to their modular construction, the panels can be installed in combination with Kvadrat Soft Cells as part of a building’s original design, or used as a retrofit solution to control sound absorption and enhance an existing space.

Design flexibility

Luminous textile panels come in standard and customised sizes for the ultimate design flexibility. Multiple panels can be arranged in numerous ways to bring each space alive. Create one huge mood wall as a dramatic backdrop to a room. Follow the rise of a staircase with staggered panels. Or scatter individual panels across a wall and spread the content across them. Anything is possible.
