How to light up a shop?

For a shop it is essential to show the products in their best light. Light sources in shops not only guarantee visibility, but also represent a valuable marketing tool. The Lighting Design completes the planning of a commercial space, it gives character, highlights the products and creates a pleasant atmosphere in order to obtain the best conditions of sale.

Lighting for shops


A common mistake in shops is to brighten the entire exhibition space in the same way, without creating contrasts. The light must be uniform, but not flat: the exhibition areas must be brighter than the passageways. The most effective way to achieve this is through dimmable LED spotlights or DOWNLIGHT to be installed recessed, such as the Novalux MAU spotlight with high colour rendering, or the HERO C recessed LED system, for light cuts that are highly versatile.

The right combination of light and shadow will help to favour the orientation of the customers and highlight the products.

Accent light for shops 

Accent lights for shops is perfect for highlighting the key points of the shop and for focusing on products and corners to be enhanced. Here you can take advantage of a three-phase electrified track, such as ALL-TRACK, for mounting Novalux LED projectors and luminaires, which are ideal for creating accent lighting in all exhibition spaces. 



Decorative shop lighting

Decorative lighting uses light devices to outline the shop's identity and style. Lamps and Strip LEDs follow the furnishings of the shop, they brighten and decorate it. For example, an aesthetic and functional solution can be obtained by assembling lights, such as the Novalux EDY LED family, or the HALOS decorative light rings: Novalux lighting products that add a sophisticated detail, but that are of great scenic impact, to every retail.

Shop window lighting

A shop window is your business card. Here it is important to have a high level of lighting, both for the internal and external showcases, so as to create true focal points, and a homogeneous lighting: the ideal solution is obtained with adjustable LED spotlights, such as the Spot LED MIR 48V, which is a 48V adjustable LED projector with high colour rendering and very fine design, or the luminaire DALÍ, which is equipped with high performance, high colour rendering and range of powers, to satisfy every need of the retail world. 


Warm or cold lighting for a shop?

Warm lights are used for “classic” shops, which give a sense of intimacy and comfort; cold lights for luxury shops, sports shops, cosmetic or pharmaceutical shops.
