Light is one of the fundamental pillars of our lives. From the very first rays of the sun in our universe to the energy-efficient lighting that illuminates our offices and homes today; light has always played a crucial role in our health, productivity, and well-being.
As technology continues to evolve, we also see a shift: lighting is no longer just a means to illuminate, it has become an integral part of improving our daily lives, both at home and at work.
At Project Nekton, we believe that lighting can be more than just a functional solution – it can enhance the way we work, learn, and relax.
In recent years, the focus of lighting innovations has been primarily on energy efficiency. The transition from traditional incandescent bulbs to LEDs has had a tremendous impact on reducing energy consumption. But now that we have almost fully harnessed the efficiency of LED technology, the focus is shifting towards a more holistic approach: lighting that considers our biological rhythms and the well-being of users. After all, we spend most of our time indoors, and the way we experience lighting directly affects how we feel and perform.
This shift was already highlighted in the Lighting Europe Strategic Roadmap 2025, which underscores the importance of lighting for more than just illumination itself. And that is exactly what we at Project Nekton are addressing.
Intelligent lighting systems: The connection between efficiency and well-being
The future of lighting lies in intelligent systems that not only save energy but also contribute to a healthier environment. Smart lighting adjusts based on natural light conditions, not only achieving energy efficiency but also supporting your internal rhythm. For example, consider lighting that automatically adjusts brightness and color depending on the time of day to help your body focus or relax. These smart systems form the bridge between traditional lighting and the new, human-centered approach that promotes our well-being.
At Project Nekton, we have experience in implementing such smart lighting systems in both commercial and residential environments. Our Smart Building Solutions ensure that lighting seamlessly integrates with other technologies in your building, resulting in a more efficient and healthier work or living climate.

Human Centric Lighting: More than just light
What if lighting could do more than just illuminate a room? What if it could help you sleep better, increase your productivity, or even improve your mood? That’s the essence of Human Centric Lighting (HCL). This technology ensures that lighting adapts to your biological rhythm, leading to a better sleep-wake pattern and more focus during the day. It’s a solution that proves its benefits in many different settings.

The future of lighting: A socially responsible approach
At Project Nekton, we look not only to the future of lighting in terms of technology but also in terms of the impact it can have on society. The future of lighting is not only more efficient but also healthier, more sustainable, and more human-centered. Lighting will not only serve to illuminate spaces but also to enhance our well-being, safety, and quality of life. This is the vision we integrate into each of our projects.
