Description

Lighting arrangement with light gradient
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention generally relates to lighting arrangements. In particular, the present invention relates to light emitting diode (LED) filament arrangements.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The use of light emitting diodes (LED) for illumination purposes continues to attract attention. Compared to incandescent lamps, fluorescent lamps, neon tube lamps, etc., LEDs provide numerous advantages such as a longer operational life, a reduced power consumption, and an increased efficiency related to the ratio between light energy and heat energy. In particular, LED filament lamps are highly appreciated as they are very decorative.
In lighting design, with the use of LEDs, a light gradient may refer to the change in CCT of light across a space or an object. A gradual shift in CCT from one area to another can create a sense of depth and dimension, while abrupt changes in CCT may make people feel uncomfortable.
To achieve a light gradient, a combination of different LED light sources with varying CCTs may be used. Alternatively, in some lighting arrangements, lighting fixtures with adjustable CCTs are used. For example, warm white (2700K) fixtures may be used in one area and cool white (5000K) fixtures in another, gradually blending the two to create a cohesive overall effect.
The goal of a light gradient is to create a comfortable and pleasing environment, and to highlight specific areas or features within a space. By making an improved smooth light gradient in CCT, an improved lighting effect can be achieved.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
In light of the above, it is of interest to provide alternative lighting arrangements in order to improve their optical performance and lighting effects. These and other objects are achieved by providing a LED lighting arrangement having the features in the independent claims. Preferred embodiments are defined in the dependent claims. Hence, according to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided a LED filament arrangement, configured to emit LED filament arrangement light, wherein the LED filament arrangement extends along a principal axis, A, and comprises a plurality of LED filaments, configured to emit LED filament light.
