Enigma Lighting’s high CRI LED products provide the bright welcoming retail space required by new Carpetright concept stores.

Carpetright, Europe’s leading specialist carpet and floor coverings retailer, launched four new concept stores this summer, which form the first stage of a national brand revitalisation strategy.

Enigma Lighting were approached by True Story, a creative agency for retailers and brands, to design and supply a fully LED scheme that ensured an average illuminance level of 800 lux using products with a high colour rendering of 90+ to ensure all flooring could be seen in their true colour.

To achieve the base illuminance level throughout the store we supplied our latest 600 x 600 lay in 50w LED panel with a colour rendering value of 92. The panel is both practical and stylish for the retail environment but also low energy with a great true colour output.

Accent lighting onto the displayed merchandise was provided through our directional Maxi Gimbal Twin Recessed fittings (other size / colour options available) and Wave LED Track Spot. Giving both the focus required but also the freedom to adjust through the Track Spot. Both luminares were fitted with the new Osram PrevaLED Z4 COB.

On the two retail park sites where there was an additional double height space. To avoid a warehouse feel within the retail space we used a 12000 lumen CRI 90+ LED High Bay fitting to ensure a welcoming bright space for the retail store.

Finally, we supplied feature pendants in custom finishes over prominent display areas which give the retail environment both practical luminance and a design feature.  All the fittings were pre wired by Enigma prior to delivery to allow for quick and easy installation on site.

We are very proud to have been asked to design and supply the lighting for this project and be associated with such a well known brand, we are delighted with the results
