Studio Lumen transforms Pinnacle Interiors’ new head office with innovative lighting design

Studio Lumen, renowned for their expertise in lighting design, has once again demonstrated their skill in blending functionality with aesthetics in the lighting design for Pinnacle Interiors’ new head office in the Dubai design district.

The design represents a seamless fusion of innovation and craftsmanship, elevating the workplace environment with a focus on employee well-being, operational efficiency, and sustainability.

The lighting design for the space embraces a modern, sleek aesthetic, harmonising perfectly with the contemporary style of the office. Studio Lumen’s approach emphasises minimalist fixtures such as recessed lighting, elegant pendant lights, and integrated LED strips, creating a clean, uncluttered look while ensuring optimal illumination throughout the workspace.

At the core of the design lies a commitment to functionality. The office was designed as a vibrant and adaptable environment, with tailored lighting solutions for various functional zones. Workstations benefit from focused task lighting that enhances concentration, while softer ambient lighting creates a calming atmosphere in relaxation and break areas. Meeting rooms are equipped with versatile lighting setups that can easily transition from presentations to informal discussions, ensuring flexibility for any scenario.

The lighting design also plays a crucial role in enhancing productivity and comfort. Adjustable colour temperatures and dimmable options empower occupants to tailor the lighting to suit their specific needs, whether they’re working, relaxing, or collaborating. The use of energy-efficient LEDs and smart controls underlines the office’s commitment to sustainability, lowering energy consumption and operational costs while maintaining a high standard of lighting quality.

Studio Lumen’s attention to detail extended to ensuring durability and longevity in the design. With a focus on thermal management, heat dissipation, and fixture placement, the lighting system is built to last, providing a lasting investment for both the establishment and the client.

The design challenges presented by balancing natural and artificial light were expertly handled by Studio Lumen. By integrating daylight effectively and complementing it with tailored artificial lighting, the Pinnacle Interiors head office achieves consistent lighting conditions throughout the day, avoiding over-reliance on natural light.

The result is a dynamic and immersive office environment that sets a new standard for lighting in the workplace. The lighting design doesn’t just illuminate the space; it transforms it into a functional, aesthetically pleasing, and impressive experience.

In recognition of its outstanding design, the project received a ‘Workplace Lighting Project of the Year’ award for Studio Lumen at this year’s Light Middle East Awards.

Siddharth Mathur, Managing Partner and CEO of Studio Lumen said, “We are thrilled and deeply honoured to receive the award. This recognition celebrates our commitment to designing lighting solutions that enhance functionality, aesthetics, and sustainability in workplace environments.”

This award win not only reflects Studio Lumen’s innovative approach and commitment to excellence but also highlights their influence in shaping the future of workplace lighting design on a global stage.
