Humanscale Shines a Light on Task Lighting with the Nova Light
Now that the clocks have gone back and the UK has settled into shorter days and darker evenings, many people are already feeling the effects of reduced natural light. Humanscale, the leading designer and manufacturer of ergonomic workplace solutions, is highlighting the importance of task lighting for health, comfort and productivity.
Humanscale has elevated task lighting through advanced light guide technology that delivers perfectly lit, sustainable, and adaptable workspaces, which research shows is fundamental to maintaining workplace wellbeing and productivity by encouraging energy levels, focus and sleep rhythms. Among its award-winning products, the Nova task light amplifies the merging of cutting-edge engineering with timeless, minimalist design to transform the way we live and work.
Humanscale is the leading designer and manufacturer of high-performance ergonomic products that improve the health and comfort of work life. Through new technology and human-centred design, Humanscale transforms office necessities into minimally elegant, ergonomic tools and furnishings that encourage movement wherever work happens.
With two functions in one, Nova is the only light you need. It’s a versatile tool designed to adapt to any workspace, whether at home or in the office. Its LED light guide technology casts an even spread of bright, glare-free light without multiple shadows, reducing eye strain while improving focus. With a high colour rendering index (CRI) and adjustable colour temperature, Nova is also an ideal high-performance solution for video conferencing and hybrid work, delivering high-quality light and limitless positioning for an exceptional on-camera appearance.
With counterbalanced arms that rotate up to 180 degrees, Nova offers simple one hand adjustability to meet any ergonomic needs. Its signature forever hinges ensure the light stays in place without slipping or bouncing, keeping it precisely where you want it to be. Available in black, grey or white finishes, along with a wide selection of mounting options and bases, Nova blends easily into both professional and residential settings. The touch dimming control allows users to adjust the brightness to their preference, while the smart dimming function remembers the last setting even after the light is turned on and off.
Setting Nova apart from other task lights is its optional desktop wireless charging base, complete with two USB ports. This thoughtful addition keeps devices powered throughout the day and helps declutter work surfaces by removing the need for loose charging cables.
Like all Humanscale products, the Nova task light is designed with a positive environmental impact in mind at every stage of development. Its LED technology uses up to 80 percent less energy than traditional lighting and includes Passive Infrared sensors that detect presence within one metre, automatically switching off after 15 minutes with no activity. This supports effortless energy savings and lower running costs.
Nova is ENERGY STAR certified, BIFMA LEVEL 3 certified and manufactured without Red List chemicals. It contains more than 50 percent recycled content by weight and is made from 70 percent recyclable materials, contributing toward LEED, WELL and Living Building Challenge certifications.
By combining functionality, adaptability and sustainability, Nova ensures that every workspace, from corporate offices to home environments, remains brighter, healthier and more productive just in time for the early sunsets.
