The 5 best desk lamps and flexos for studying

If in this article we gave you the keys to looking after the health of our back, today we advise you on the lighting in the spaces where we work or study.

The right lighting will help us to carry out our day-to-day tasks more comfortably, and is essential to prevent possible headaches or visual fatigue. In addition, the flexos are not only a functional complement, but they can also be our great allies in the decoration of our rooms.

Lighting has the ability to transform all spaces, giving them a greater sense of home. Who said that our work or study space cannot be a place where we can feel at peace? Moreover, thanks to the adjustable lampshade that characterises this type of luminaire, we can move the focus of the light to our liking, allowing us to choose where to focus it.

Once we have introduced you to the products featured in this article that will illuminate your study or work moments, we give you a series of tips to bear in mind when using this type of luminaire:

• Use cool light in your study or work area, as it is similar to natural light and therefore favours concentration and productivity. However, if you usually study at night, it is advisable to opt for a more neutral type of light to avoid sleep problems.
• Try not to place your computer screen in front of the window, so you don’t get unwanted reflections. However, if possible, place your desk in front of the window, so that you get more natural light and this will influence your mood.
• Place the lamp on the opposite side of the table to the one you are writing with to avoid shadows from your arm on the paper. Also, make sure that the general lighting in the room is not behind you, so that you do not lose light and the shadow of your body is not cast on the table.
• LED bulbs offer greater energy savings, are longer lasting and more efficient, do not contain mercury like halogen bulbs and emit a higher quality light.
• Rest your eyes to relieve eye fatigue caused by looking at a screen close to your eyes by occasionally looking away.
