Message From The Editor
Organic, green and blues, LEDs evolve
LED technology is inseparable from energy savings. It has often been said here, the LED revolution is over. The technology is refining itself and evolving into other applications. All those who travel this summer here and elsewhere will see public spaces, infrastructure or external multimedia experiences that reflect the architectural and creative possibilities of this technology. In this issue we also talk about projections for a new generation of LEDs, called organic. We also return to the debate on health and blue light. Good reading!
