Munich, April 2019: Occhio presents Mito linear, its new system of luminaires, at Euroluce 2019. With Mito linear, Occhio is expanding its award-winning Mito series to include a sweeping, linear version – thereby opening up entirely new possibilities for lighting design. The comprehensive luminaire system combines minimalistic design with state-of-the-art technology to create perfect light – at the workplace or in public and private settings. In doing so, innovative features such as »touchless control« and »color tune« ensure the unique joy of use that comes from Occhio.

Mito linear is Occhio’s multifunctional universal lighting tool both in terms of design and quality of light. Whether a floor, suspended, ceiling luminaire or a wall washer, each item in Mito linear’s lineup was conceived as part of a comprehensive system that delivers the right light for every room situation in home and commer- cial settings.

Minimalism in its most beautiful form
Mito linear combines both a lightness of design and an attention to detail to create one complete work of art, the exceptional quality of which makes itself known with every encounter. Its varying surfaces – which are available in the matte soft-touch colors of white, black, silver and gold, or in rose gold or bronze metallic PVD – make the Mito linear a versatile fixture that can be configured in an endless number of ways.

An exceptional lighting experience through innovative functions
Mito linear’s full talent first shines through when interacting with the multifunctional lighting tool: The floor and suspended luminaires feature touchless control right at the head of luminaire. Thanks to innovative sensors, the luminaire can be turned on/off and dimmed via gesture control, and the »fading« function activated to con- tinuously spread light between uplight and downlight. The »color tune« function allows the color temperature of the light to be adjusted according to the situation – from a warm light atmosphere to a vibrant, cool working light. The light color can be a fixed setting or adjusted between 2700K and 4000K. Mito linear can also be controlled with the Occhio air app or the air controller.

Design standards and joy of use – now also for the office
Mito terra floor luminaires offer an entirely new approach to workplace lighting. With their precision-lens optics, the different versions make it possible to illuminate both single and double work stations with just one luminaire. A gas-pressured spring mechanism makes it easy for the height-adjustable version to “grow” with adjustable desks. In addition, Mito terra 3d provides extra three-dimensional configuration options, which give it an almost sculptural look.

The optional height-adjustment feature of the Mito volo suspended luminaire also plays an important role in its joy of use: It can accommodate any situation with its smooth and well-balanced height adjustment fea- ture and can be directly and intuitively controlled via gesture. And different versions allow the luminaire to be mounted to a wide range of ceiling types.

Reinvention of the wall washer
Through the Mito linear’s design, Occhio has successfully transformed its sophisticated lighting technology for uniform wall illumination. The first wall washer in the Occhio product portfolio, the Mito alto side-ceiling lumi- naire is a significant enhancement to the system’s lighting design and thereby rounds off the Mito series’ full potential.

Powerful lighting tool for every situation
The Mito linear’s luminous power is as intense as it is simple and restrained. With its holistic concept and conti- nuous stylistic design, the innovative system of luminaires opens up entirely new possibilities for lighting design – in both private and public settings as well as office environments. Sophisticated lens optics and two- sided light emission allow a wide variety of lighting scenarios to be created – depending on the mood and situation.
