1 Smart lighting Press Kit APRIL 2017

2 Better lighting just got easier and more affordable Smart lighting is IKEA challenging everything that s complicated and expensive with lighting. Good lighting is about function, sight and visibility, but it also creates atmosphere, provides a sense of safety, and improves our wellbeing. Most of us know this, but maybe need a reminder to give our lighting at home a little bit more attention. Also, good lighting can be expensive and a bit tricky and difficult to achieve. Until now. After obsessing about light for quite some time now, we re hoping that this Smart lighting launch can make a real difference and contribute to the lighting in more people s homes in an easy and affordable way. The Smart lighting range includes endless solutions for dimming, cold and warm light, remote steering, light panels and doors as well as customized and personalized lighting. And it s all easy, wireless, plug-and-play solutions with a contemporary and stylish look and feel. Brilliant. SMART LIGHTING / IKEA PRESS KIT / APRIL 2017 / 2

3 PH All lights, all moods Choose a light for early mornings, another for late evenings and a third for cooking or working at home. Dim, turn off, turn on, and switch from warm to cold light using a remote control or app. Smart lighting also includes LED panels and doors, when you lack, or simply want to increase the feeling of natural daylight, which we know enhances our overall wellbeing. And all products are plug-and-play solutions, meaning there is no need for new wiring or hiring an electrician.

4 Hopefully TRÅDFRI inspires and encourages you to start experimenting with your light at home. BJÖRN BLOCK, BUSINESS LEADER FOR IKEA HOME SMART, REFLECTS ON THE SMART LIGHTING RANGE. ON LIGHTING KNOWLEDGE Many people feel that it s complicated and expensive to improve the lighting in their home. Knowledge about lighting and how it works is also quite low. At the same time, we know that many people have a desire or ambition to improve their lighting at home they just don t know where or how to start. ON SIMPLICITY The Smart lighting range lowers the barrier to get better light at home, bringing it to an absolute minimum. I think of the TRÅDFRI kits as an entry level light that you can build upon, that hopefully inspires and encourages you to start experimenting with your light at home. For $39.99, you get a kit with a steering device and an LED bulb that requires no installation or wiring. Just replace your old bulb with the new, and you have a dimmable light that goes from warm to cold light in three steps. ON THE INTERNET OF THINGS There s a lot of buzz about the internet of things, which basically means everyday consumer objects that have an electrical or digital component, that can be connected to other products through a wireless network. This connectivity allows dumb products to become smart ones. The LED bulbs in TRÅDFRI are a very good example of how an old, familiar product such as the light bulb can suddenly do so much more simply by communicating with a steering device, therefore enabling more people to have better light. Many people have a desire or ambition to improve their lighting at home they just don t know where or how to start.

5 PH PH I think many people instinctively know the connection between light and feeling good we just have to remind them of this, and Smart lighting is a good opportunity to do so.

Available Fall 2017 TRÅDFRI gateway kit white spectrum white $99/each ON LIGHT AND WELLBEING It really makes an enormous difference to both the atmosphere and your wellbeing to have good lighting. I think many people instinctively know the connection between light and feeling good we just have to remind them of this, and Smart lighting is a good opportunity to do so. ON LIGHT IN THE DINING AREA Personally I like the magical effect TRÅDFRI has in a dining area, and how the light and mood easily changes from working light to a dimmed, warm and cosy light for dinner time. ON THE TRÅDFRI APP For those willing to take the next step, the TRÅDFRI app allows you to pre-set different light sources around the house to create different moods and suit different needs. ON HIS OWN HOME I have TRÅDFRI in my house, of course, and I always proudly demonstrate it for friends that come to visit. I can honestly say that they are impressed. And when I tell them the price, they light up even more. ON IKEA BEING FOR THE MANY I would say Smart lighting is very IKEA, because it allows more of the many people to have better light at an affordable price.
