KUMUX and K-array Transform Spaces with Well-being-centred Technology

Traditional artificial lighting does not always meet people's biological needs. Aware of this, KUMUX has developed software based on artificial intelligence that adapts lighting to circadian rhythms, providing a more natural and health-beneficial lighting experience. When integrated with RAIL by K-array, an innovative architectural line that combines light and sound in a single product, a multisensory environment enhances comfort, creativity, and workplace performance in a convergence of design.

“In a world where we spend most of our time indoors under static lighting, the incorporation of KUMUX into RAIL by K-array allows workspaces to align with natural light rhythms, promoting wellbeing, mood, and productivity,” explains Adria Huguet, CTO of KUMUX. “This collaboration is the perfect combination of lighting, intelligent control, and science, offering a solution that reconnects people with the light cycles they truly need.”

RAIL by K-array, with its sleek design and ability to integrate professional sound and personalised lighting, has been the choice for innovative international projects such as the office renovations of Pavion, JLL, and Armstrong Ceilings, as well as the redefinition of modern workspaces led by TAD Associates. Due to the incorporation of KUMUX technology, this system now optimises the auditory and aesthetic experience of spaces and contributes to the health and well-being of its occupants.

With the rise of certifications such as WELL Building Standard and the growing recognition of the influence of light and sound on human behaviour, this alliance between KUMUX and K-array represents a crucial step towards creating the indoor spaces of the future.

“Our mission is to facilitate the implementation of intelligent solutions that improve people's daily lives in their workplaces. With RAIL, we offer unprecedented integration of audio and circadian lighting, ensuring healthier and more productive environments with ease,” concludes Huguet.

This collaboration reaffirms KUMUX and K-array’s commitment to innovation and the design of spaces that prioritise human well-being. With technologies that mimic natural light and enrich the sound environment, the building of the future is now a tangible and accessible reality.

Sunlight, UVB and Vitamin D – Human Centric Lighting Beyond Melanopic Stimulation

by Ir. Rémy C. Broersma and Dr. Ir. Marcel P. Lucassen, Scientists at Signify Research Eindhoven UVB radiation initiates vital processes in our body, one of which is the production of vitamin D in the skin. It is well known that over-exposure to the sun may bring a risk. Less well known is that the same is true for insufficient sun exposure due to our indoor lifestyle. In Part 1 of this article, we first describe the scientific understanding behind vitamin D. In Part 2 we describe how artificial light can be enriched with a safe, low dose of UVB, to supplement natural vitamin D production in the skin. Not too much, not too little.

Light in the Service of Health – Bringing the Science of Light and Health into Everyday Life through Evidence-based Communication

Light does far more than let us see. In this episode of the LED professional podcast, Manuel Spitschan and Laura Kervezee, co-chairs of the Light for Public Health Initiative, explain how light acts as the master regulator of the body’s internal clock: it synchronises our physiology with the day outside, shapes mood and alertness, and times the release of melatonin, the hormone that governs sleep. The science is settled enough to act on, so the initiative has distilled it into 26 consensus statements on how light affects the body and well-being, written as practical, evidence-based guidance for individuals, employers, schools and cities. A compact 14-minute briefing on why good light is a public-health question, and what to do about it. Based on the authors’ article in LED professional Review #112.

deLIGHTed Talks #8: Good Light – Good Sleep

Full recording of deLIGHTed Talks #8, held online by LpS DIGITAL on 24 April 2025 (91 minutes). Dr. Renske Lok (Stanford University) shows that bright light during the day deepens nighttime sleep, reduces nighttime awakenings, improves sleep efficiency and lowers next-day sleep inertia. Dr. Jeffrey Hubbard (University of Lausanne / EPFL) compares how light and darkness drive sleep and wakefulness in nocturnal mice and day-active Sudanian grass rats. Chronobiologist Dr. Virginie Gabel, founder of Clock&Me, moderates the session and the discussion on what the findings mean for lighting design.
