As light
can be dark

How could we think about light without worrying about the shadow! We constantly move between the two poles and certainly think of our lighting from its shadow side. 

To what extent does artificial lighting snatch from the darkness what belongs to it? To what extent does light bring out the darkness in the first place? What remains in the dark when we move something into the light? Is darkness a shell that encloses the light? 

Light and shadow are basic constants of human experience and in their linguistic transmission they give our idea of opposites their colour. Or rather their non-colour and thus span the arc for the whole world in between.

As light
can be
focusing

Thanks to our invention of the focus system, since 2009 we have been the first luminaire manufacturer to offer LED luminaires whose light cones can be varied without tools and in no time at all. The technology, which is protected as a utility model, is based on a focusable light head. Our focus system allows you to create islands of light and thus illuminate only what is essential. To prevent the light head from getting too hot, it is turned from a solid piece of aluminium and thus dissipates the heat of the LED.

Our Focus system has revolutionised the use of light in living spaces and because we do not want to deprive you of this function in any form, we have equipped almost all of our luminaire families with it.

We do the lighting and you set the accents.

As light
can be
less'n'more

Our name reflects our attitude of leaving out everything that is not absolutely necessary to fulfil the function. We thus commit ourselves to an understanding of sustainability that invests all energy and creativity in the most minimal unity of function and form. 

This minimalism allows us more room for solution-oriented design and innovative technologies. This is how we make confident choices for unique products that only follow their own course. More being. More appearance.

As light
can be
flexible

Our luminaires are conceived in the mind and their design possibilities are also conceived "from the mind": starting from the luminous head, you creatively combine designs, materials and colours. 

Then we have already taken care of the technical perfection, because the individual components have been thought through to the end in terms of design and functionality. So together they add up to what they are: High-tech precision tools for domestic use.

As light
can be
lasting

We believe in the changeability of taste in terms of colour and form as well as in the constancy of taste in terms of quality. Our luminaires are not subject to short-term trends, but are built for at least a long life.

That is why we combine durability with change: the individual components of our luminaires, such as the telescope and luminaire head, are reduced, elegant, highly functional and in their combination they are incredibly changeable.

What applies to the parts also applies to the whole, and so our luminaires must always be reduced to what they are: focused companions for eternity.

Designer and managing director Kai Steffens always follows his idealism and intuition. This results in the guiding principle that lessʾnʾmore design is measured by its functionality and refrains from dipping into the market segment as conformably as possible. Aesthetics, however, is by no means a secondary consideration, but arises almost as if by itself from the way we think about our products:

As quality work that only comes into being when the whole person is involved, when his senses and his mind have a common goal, namely to infect you with our passion.

As light can
be a perfect
match

lessʾnʾmore is the story of two friends, the two managing directors Kai Steffens and Christian Dinow, which began more than 20 years ago in the cellar of their shared flat.

On an old workbench, Steffens screwed away at his own designs and not only developed his love for beautiful design, but also laid the foundation for his own design label: fascinated by the creative possibilities of LED technology, Steffens and Dinow initially developed lighting tools for industry before they achieved a breakthrough in the residential lighting segment in 2008 with their idea for the first focusable LED luminaire, which won them several awards.

In the meantime, the product range and the team have grown and the task has not changed: Together, they bring their light to the people with precision craftsmanship, creativity and openness to design. Their production site is still in Germany and that is not a matter of course, but an old saying: Never change a perfect match...

As light
can be
unplugged

Following our guiding principle that only what must remain should remain, we have now taken a big step forward and are simply leaving the days of "the cable is not enough!" behind us. 

We take our luminaire under our arm and move our favourite activity to our favourite place. This minimalist nonchalance beyond the usual tangle of cables brings a smile to our faces every time. You too?

Following our guiding principle that only what has to stay should stay, we have now taken a big step forward and simply leave the times of "the cable is not enough!" behind us. Completely relaxed, we take our luminaire under our arm and move our favourite activity to our favourite place. This minimalist nonchalance beyond the usual cable tangles puts a smile on our faces every time. You too?

As light
can be
nonconform

For us, being nonconformist is not a platitude, but the conviction that a high-quality product can be immediately distinguished from mass-produced goods: Namely, by the fact that the two components of functionality and design can no longer be distinguished.

With this in mind, we creatively combined two design areas - lighting and furniture. The result is a series of multifunctional reading furniture that rethinks reading as a flexible bookboard, mobile shelf or rolling book trolley. Because what belongs together fits together.
