roxxane-14

It all started with „I ♥ Roxxane“

These three magic words summed up our devotion to the fantastic Roxxane. She was new, exciting and feminine but at the same time powerful, unpretentious and somehow cheeky. We all wanted to have her.
Now after 7 years, it‘s hard to imagine our workplaces and reading niches without her. Her image now? Not so much the head-turning newcomer but rather a classical beauty.

That‘s not only our impression – designers, curators and experts in the sector all see our Roxxane as a potential classic. She was just part of the „100 years of adjustable light“ exhibition at Cologne‘s Museum of Applied Arts, where she joins around 40 luminaires from various eras and contexts. Furthermore, she is included in the Pinakothek der Moderne‘s collection featuring architecture and design of the 20th and 21st centuries.

Is there anything about a design classic that can be improved? The timelessly clear-cut appearance is sacrosanct, but as the saying goes: it‘s what‘s on the inside that counts! That‘s why we have given Roxxane
a technical update and boosted her light output.

CRI update > 90: From now on she shines with the brilliance of natural light.

Luminous flux 900 / 1500: Faster, higher, stronger? The increased luminous flux gives Roxxane almost twice as much power as before – a truly powerful weapon in the lighting arsenal.

Suitable for videoconferencing: Planned film recordings or a video conference? No problem – our Roxxane is 100% flicker-free!

„Dark bronze“ and matt white: In line with current trends in home design, we have immersed Roxxane in matt white – modern and elegant. Along with our white, our bronze has also been given a new look: the new „dark bronze“ shade is darker, more intense and warmer. The previous white and bronze versions are being phased out and, in future, will no longer be available for either Roxxane Home or Roxxane Office.

Despite its puristic appearance, upon closer inspection Roxxane reveals itself to be a sophisticated high-tech product with fascinating special technical features: Three perfectly coordinated and finely calibrated friction hinges allow the user to easily move the luminaire into any desired position. The luminaire head can be tilted through 270°, which means that the light falls exactly where it is wanted.
Roxxane is available as a table and reading luminaire as well as with various adapters for tables and wall mounts. It is available in white, silver, black, dark bronze, and, for the particularly bold, fluorescent red!

Roxxane Office NEON EDITION

Roxxane Office is also ready for delivery as the NEON EDITION. In the first few months, the innovative LED luminaire premièred at the Light+Building fair 2012 has seen the most successful product launch in the company's history. The neon colour has been seen in our Roxanne publicity material right from the very beginning – and Nimbus has received countless enquiries asking when the luminaire will be available for delivery in this expressive colour. Since Euroluce 2013 the NEON EDITION is part of the permanent portfolio.

Professional lighting tool

Moreover, in terms of lighting technology, the Roxxane Office defines a new form of table luminaire for the workplace: in combination with the existing basic lighting (e.g. with Nimbus Modul L 196), Roxxane Office ensures ideal workplace lighting. Especially designed to meet requirements in the visual task area of office workplaces, it fulfils the recommendations and guidelines for work surface lighting.

Being so easily adjustable, the Roxxane Office is perfectly suited to use as a workplace lamp. Finely calibrated friction joints hold the luminaire in any position you choose, allowing glare-free reading and working.

Versatile in use

Thanks to the availability of a large number of adapters and mountings, the Roxxane can be used in just about any situation. Special adapters, e.g. for USM Haller and USM Kitos tables, extend the range of functions. Other adapters are available upon request.

Touchless

Roxxane offers a touchless gesture control to switch the luminaire on and off. The flush recessed infrared sensor also allows intuitive and convenient dimming. A slight wiping motion over the sensor integrated on top of the luminaire head is sufficient to switch the luminaire on or off. Just let your hand hover over the sensor - and the luminaire dims to the desired brightness.

New mechanical motion system

The luminaires in the Roxxane range surprise the user with their innovative mechanical motion system. For the first time ever, very finely calibrated and easily manoeuvrable friction hinges have been used in a LED table luminaire, the same type of hinges used in biomedical engineering. The special function of this sophisticated “torque hinge” is based on the friction principle, thanks to which the user experiences a gentle, pleasant and hitherto unknown evenness when moving the luminaire. The high-quality, long-life friction joints made of die-cast zinc hold the luminaire in any desired position – with a high degree of precision, free from play and with no visible springs, wires or intrusive levers.

Effective over a large area

The special friction joints bestow the luminaires in the Roxxane range with a hitherto unknown manoeuvrability. The 3D-joint can be rotated through 270°, thus enabling you to move the luminaire head in any direction according to your individual wishes and needs. This allows a high degree of flexibility and glarefree reading and working. The luminaire will not tip over even when set in its extreme position.
