Zumtobel Light Forum in Lemgo

The Zumtobel brand belonging to the Austrian lighting company the Zumtobel Group has invested around EUR 750,000 in a comprehensive makeover of its Light Forum in Lemgo, following on from last year's modernisation of its local production operations. The Light Forum – among the largest of Zumtobel's 16 Light Forums and Centres worldwide, with a display area of 1,400 m2 – unveiled its brand new look with the launch of Re-Balancing, an exhibition by Vienna-based design company EOOS.

The Zumtobel Lemgo Light Forum first opened its doors back in 1996. The new showrooms – re-designed in conjunction with Münster-based architects Bolles & Wilson – feature the very latest in lighting technology: LEDs now make up more than 80% of the lighting solutions on display. The range of Zumtobel LED luminaires on show in Lemgo covers the full spectrum of professional lighting applications – including, for example, "Discus" and "Vivo" LED spotlights – both designed by EOOS Design; the new "Panos Infinity" LED downlight with its fully variable colour temperature ("Tunable White"); and innovative industrial and office lighting systems such as "Tecton LED" and "Mellow Light V".

The Light Forum welcomes some 6,000 visitors every year, making it a central meeting place for customers and project partners. As well as hosting training events for clients and employees, the Forum stages regular design meetings and mock-ups for major projects like the Burda Museum in Baden-Baden and Hamburg's Elbphilharmonie concert hall. Supplementing the Forum itself is a "Lighting trail" which shows office and industrial lighting concepts in real-life applications in a range of buildings.
