Ambient comfort,
intuitive control.
At DMF, we’re dedicated to making spaces more livable, more useful, and more comfortable. Warm Dim technology is our next step forward.
Match the Mood to the Moment
People’s needs change constantly, even in the same room. They can be hard at work
one moment, and entertaining friends the next. Warm Dim gives people the flexibility to
choose the light that’s right for them by dimming from vibrant, full-spectrum lighting to
warm, comfortable illumination.
Combining dimming with shifting color temperatures makes intuitive sense. After all, we often notice that light sources warm up as their intensity goes down in the natural world. At the core of Warm Dim is the profound human relationship with light and color.
DMF’s Warm Dim technology transforms how your spaces look and feel without sacrificing simplicity or performance. Warm Dim transitions from a bright and inviting 3000K to a warm and intimate 1800K, maintaining a consistent 93+ CRI and Energy Star rating throughout.
DMF’s Warm Dim has been thoughtfully engineered to create the right light for each situation.
There’s minimal color temperature change at the high-end of the dimming curve so that daytime lighting remains vibrant and unaffected. Once dimmed below 50% light output, the color temperature gradually warms to provide the personal, intimate ambiance desired in the evening.
Unlike other warm dimming products, DMF’s Warm Dim doesn’t rely on discrete LEDs or complicated control systems. Our modules are powered by one premium COB chip that utilizes color mixing phosphors to produce a relaxing glow as it dims while maintaining DMF’s trademark quality and ease-of-use. Impressively, it accomplishes all this from the control a single standard dimming switch.
Warm Dim is part of the modular, unified DMF downlighting system that gives you the flexibility to light an entire project. You can swap out a Warm Dim downlight for an adjustable, or change the trim, all without missing a beat.
