LEAF by Yves Behar

Powerful aesthetics, industry-leading technology, and unmatched user control - enhancing both home and office environments - define Leaf. Designed by Yves Béhar of fuseproject in San Francisco, Leaf puts control in peoples’ hands, or more accurately, at their fingertips. Attractive touch control allows the user to adjust the light intensity and colour easily, changing from warm to cool light to best suit a mood, a task, or a location.

The new Leaf personal light is definitely cool – in many ways. It gives the user a unique lighting choice that is attractive, innovative and environmentally friendly.

LED technology
Chips, not bulbs. Leaf uses 20 light-emitting diodes (LEDs) for illumination; 10 chips are blue-white (cool) and 10 are yellow-white (warm).

Personal control. Touch to turn on/off; slide a finger along a groove in the base to adjust intensity and achieve the desired blend of warm and cool light.

Good memory. When turned on, the light retains the previous colour and intensity settings.

Energy efficient. Uses 8-9 watts of power, or 40 percent less than a compact fluorescent bulb.

Long life. Allows up to 100,000 hours of use, eight times longer than conventional light sources.


Spirited design
Elegant profile. Blades are thin and sculptural, giving the light an organic form.
Cool and quiet. Innovative heat-dissipating design keeps the light cool to the touch without a fan.Finish choices. Five colours to coordinate with a variety of settings; black, white, red, nickel, polished.
