Poor lighting. Excess noise. It’s no recipe for productivity. Enter Tranquila, our latest acoustic lighting range designed in collaboration with acoustic experts AllSfär. With this range, we are making it easier to meet WELL Building Standard™ criteria for both light and sound – all in one product.
The WELL Building Standard™ sets the bar for healthy work environments, offering a framework that focuses on factors impacting human health and wellbeing. As companies encourage or require staff to return to office spaces, ensuring their working environments support wellbeing has never been more critical. That’s why we developed Tranquila – to deliver a combination of lighting and acoustic features that helps wellbeing in the workplace.
Chris Michaeloudis, Head of Marketing at AllSfär commented on the collaboration: “At AllSfär, we’re always looking to create innovative, sustainable acoustic products that combine design aesthetics with acoustic practicalities, so when the team at Mount Lighting approached us about collaborating with them, we jumped at the opportunity. We worked very closely with the team at Mount Lighting throughout the product development process, ensuring that we created a range of acoustic lighting that is beautiful, sustainable AND that satisfies the WELL Building Standard performance criteria.”
WELL Criteria and Tranquila: Meeting Standards for Light and Sound
WELL considers ten key health factors, including air, light, and sound. At Mount Lighting, we have zeroed in on two of these critical areas – light and sound. Together with AllSfär, we created the Tranquila acoustic lighting range to meet WELL criteria without compromising on style or ease of installation.
Tranquila’s Pacifica Linear Luminaire, for example, supports WELL’s visual lighting and sound standards, with options like:
Light
- L02 – Predetermined Light Levels
- L03 – Circadian Lighting Design
- L04 – Electric Light Glare Control
- L07 – Visual Balance
- L08 – Light Quality and Colour Rendering Index (CRI)
- L09 – Occupant Lighting Control (when used with Casambi Wireless)
Sound
- S04 – Reverberation Time
- S05 – Sound-Reducing Surfaces
With these features, the Tranquila range helps create spaces that feel both comfortable and productive. The sound-absorbing properties of our luminaires support concentration, while the well-designed lighting aligns with natural rhythms, low to zero glare, working to promote an environment where people feel focused and engaged.
A Product Range Designed for Wellbeing
The Tranquila acoustic lighting range includes four core products: the Pacifica, Aura, Sonido, and Soreno—each bringing its unique style and acoustic features to workspaces:
- Aura: Available in five sizes and offering versatile mounting options, the Aura circular acoustic light is ideal for open spaces like lobbies and conference rooms. With Casambi controls, it’s easy to adjust light levels to suit different needs.
- Sonido: This linear light offers both direct and indirect lighting options, perfect for spaces where task lighting and sound reduction are equally important.
- Soreno: With a modern hexagonal design, Soreno suits contemporary office and industrial spaces, providing both acoustic benefits and visual impact.
Built with Sustainability and Wellbeing in Mind
Sustainability is just as important as wellbeing, which is why Tranquila acoustic lighting products use AllSfär’s UK-made acoustic surfaces crafted from 60% recycled PET. This environmentally friendly choice aligns with our commitment to sustainable design and helps our customers make choices that are both practical and responsible.
