Lighting trends of 2025

This year also brings exciting changes for the lighting industry. We take you through the most important lighting trends of 2025 in this article.

1. Sustainability as standard

Sustainability goals are no longer a trend, but a requirement. Lighting systems must become increasingly efficient and environmentally friendly. There will be a shift to lighting that are even better at energy consumption and last longer. Installers and project decorators will focus on systems that can be easily integrated with smart technologies that monitor and adjust energy consumption, leaving businesses and homes with a smaller carbon footprint.

2. Smart lighting and IoT integration.

This brings us immediately to the second trend. Smart lighting is becoming increasingly sophisticated. The integration of lighting into the Internet of Things (IoT) allows companies and individuals to manage systems through apps such as Casambi or other systems. Lighting automatically adjusts based on occupancy, time of day or even the mood of a room. With this, you can not only improve comfort, but also provide a higher degree of control and flexibility.

3. AI in lighting

Artificial intelligence (AI) will play a larger role in the industry in 2025. Luminaires that automatically adapt to the environment are getting better and better. Consider lighting that adapts to what is being lit at a specific time in a clothing store. Does the color of clothing in the window change? Then the fixture automatically adjusts the light colors. optimal.

4. Circadian illumination

Lighting that follows human day-night rhythms (circadian lighting) remains an important trend, especially in work and care environments. This lighting helps improve people’s health and productivity by adjusting light color and intensity throughout the day. Curious about the benefits of circadian lighting for offices?

5. Layered lighting

Gone are the days of depending on a single ceiling light. In 2025, it’s all about layered lighting. This is a thoughtful approach that combines multiple fixtures to create a dynamic and versatile space. Layered lighting typically combines three types of lighting: general lighting for basic illumination, task lighting for focused activities such as reading or dining. And accent lighting to highlight architectural features such as artwork or decorative elements. This adds depth and dimension to a room, allowing the lighting to be fully tuned to the desired mood and function.

6. Customized

Lighting is no longer just functional, but plays a key role in creating the right atmosphere. Customers expect customized lighting plans that are not only practical, but also contribute to the look and feel of a space. Whether for a home or an office environment, the desire to create unique lighting plans is increasing. We are happy to create your custom lighting plan, request it here.

7. Local production and quality

In an era where sustainability and quality are increasingly important, many companies are choosing locally produced lighting products. By manufacturing domestically, as we do in Deurne, Brabant, companies can better oversee the production process. This leads to higher product quality and longer product life.

This not only has a positive impact on the environment through less transportation and lower carbon emissions, but is also cost-effective in the long run. By investing in locally made products that last longer, you avoid frequent replacements, resulting in less waste and lower operating costs. That’s why 2025 will be the year that local manufacturing and sustainability become even more important.
