Horizon 2 is built to make task lighting feel easier and more comfortable throughout the day. Its ultra wide, glare free beam spreads light across the work surface and casts a single shadow, reducing visual clutter and limiting the need for additional task lighting. Touch dimming makes on desk adjustment simple, while the adjustable arm helps direct light precisely where focused work happens.

• Wide, even light coverage helps illuminate more of the desktop at once
• Glare free performance supports visual comfort during reading and computer work
• Single shadow light distribution creates a cleaner working view
• Touch dimming allows fast brightness adjustment with minimal effort
• Adjustable arm makes it easier to place light exactly where it is needed

Humanscale treats sustainability as a core part of its identity, not simply a supporting message.
