About Shade

In 2015, Shade was founded to challenge the way we use and interact with light. To achieve that, Shade established a close collaboration with designer Øivind Slaatto to continuously develop the ØS1 smart lamp series, which combine cutting edge technology with Scandinavian design. BETTER LIGHT – BETTER LIVING We believe that design must be able to improve life to justify its existence. Light is important. Like food, friends and family we should not take light for granted. If we invest ourselves and give the lighting in our homes the right attention, making sure it is fulfilling our needs, it will give you so much everyday joy and quality in return. In the morning while enjoying your first cup of coffee, you want a warm and gentle light for waking up. When you sit down to do your paperwork in the evening you need a bit brighter and cooler light, to focus properly. You need a clear light to present the food you have cooked for friends and family, but still soft enough to set a cosy atmosphere. When you’re ready to go to bed you want that soft and warm light again to calm down your body and mind: Better Light - Better Living.Read their story
