Let your writing shine

Let your writing shine

A writer’s vocabulary is as integral to their work as an artist’s palette and brush.

A well-utilised depth of language can transcend a story from a work of fiction, to a universe inside your mind. The greater the imagination, the more sophisticated the words needed to express it.

So how can we expand our vocabulary? An artist can simply purchase new paints and brushes, but words are more complex to acquire. Rather than simply reading vocabulary lists or trawling through a thesaurus, the most effective way to build a well-rounded vocabulary is simply to read as much as you possibly can. Language is contextual, so the best way to understand new words is to encounter them in context. The more varied the material the better, different writers will utilise different styles of language and just like with any skill, the more expansive the material, the better the learning will be.

Find yourself struggling to read for long periods of time? We have just the solution for you.

All light is not the same

Our eyes are the product of over 500 million years of evolution under the sun. The problem is modern life deprives us of this light. We spend 90% of our time indoors under man-made light that can appear similar but is in fact quietly causing us untold damage. It is no accident that half of the global population is predicted to be short-sighted by 2050, nor that two-thirds of us now report that we suffer from eyestrain.

Standard LED lights often contain a spike in blue wavelengths that diminishes contrast and colour rendition. They provide a harsh light that can contribute to headaches, eyestrain and sleep deprivation.

A Serious Light transforms your ability to see detail and colour clearly. This means you can enjoy getting lost in a book for longer, carry on making music into the late hours, or complete a tricky jigsaw before it starts becoming a chore.

Daylight Wavelength Technology™

Better light is not just about brightness. It is a carefully curated combination of spectacular colour rendition, high fidelity light, and a colour spectrum that closely mirrors natural daylight.

Our Daylight Wavelength Technology™ avoids the damaging downsides of conventional LEDs, by mitigating the blue light spike and projecting a balanced beam that supports your eyes and enables you to focus in comfort.

Over 500 independent opticians recommend Serious Lights for the transformational difference they can make to the sight and well-being of their patients. A Serious Light is built for performance, not just for decoration.

The High Definition Our best reading light, with new revolutionary LED technology. From £349.99

The HD is our flagship light. Powerful and fully adjustable, it boasts our highest colour accuracy rating, scoring a 99/100 on the Colour Rendering Index.

What this means is that you will be able to see every word and image in vivid clarity, as if you were reading under a pool of pure, natural light.

For those living with an eye condition, our HD Light can be very beneficial and has helped many people with AMD, Cataracts, and Glaucoma, due to its daylight quality, adjustable focus and intuitive dimming function.

The Alex Light Our mid-range light, the Alex Light supports your vision with bespoke technology that replicates the makeup of natural daylight. From £249.99

Benefiting from the latest high-performance LED technology, the Alex Light supports your eyes, and gives them the help they need to read small print for longer.

Serious Lights are designed to focus all of their luminescence onto your page, providing you with a powerful and targeted beam of natural light.

The intuitive dimmer function allows you to personalise the light to suit your eyes and the ambient conditions. The wide beam pattern is perfect for reading materials such as books and newspapers.

The Classic Light - Our original light. Designed specifically for reading smaller books. From £149.99

The light that started it all. The Classic Light is designed to be less intense than our other ranges, with a deliberately narrow beam pattern focusing directly onto your book rather than around the room.

If you have no eye conditions, primarily read books, and are looking for a light with a focused beam, the Classic Light is ideal.

The perfect bedside reading light, the Classic Light supports your eyes and allows you to comfortably read for much longer than with an ordinary light thanks to its innovative Daylight Wavelength Technology™.
