Leaf uses innovative LED technology to bring the human touch to lighting. Designed by Yves Béhar of fuseproject in San Francisco, Leaf allows the user to manage lighting intensity, colour, and on/off by simply touching the intuitive controls. Sleek, energy-efficient, and adjustable, Leaf is designed for the office and living areas. It is a cool and compelling way to illuminate work or set a mood.

"A new experience in light is what we hoped for," says Yves Béhar, designer of the Leaf personal light for Herman Miller. As a result of innovative engineering and design development, Béhar's hopes became reality.

Leaf offers maximum lighting options with minimal mass in an intriguing, organic form and with controls that invite human connection. The proprietary technology also addresses the most vexing problems in existing LED solutions - light intensity and heat build-up.

"Leaf is designed to give the user a full spectrum of choices to express light's magical and sensory variations," says Béhar. "It allows the human senses to become engaged by allowing the user to choose the intensity and colour of light which best suits a functional need, mood, or location."

In addition, Leaf was developed according to Herman Miller's demanding Design for the Environment (DfE) protocol, emphasising sustainable processes, materials, and recyclability.
