Story
Kelvin Edge Base in the Kelvin LED family
Kelvin Edge Base is the newest addition to the Kelvin LED family. It takes the family's industrial language to a more compact scale without giving up output.
The name comes from its Edge Lighting technology, which gives a focused yet balanced glow.
Antonio Citterio developed the original Kelvin to blend seemingly simple structures with cutting-edge innovation.
