01 — Scope
LUX-03 covers entry hallways, internal corridors, wardrobe niches, and threshold transitions between apartment entry doors and living zones. Circulation lighting prioritises safe navigation, spatial orientation, and gradual adaptation from exterior light levels.
02 — Core Parameters
| Parameter | Value | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Entry / hall — maintained Eh | 100–150 lx | At floor plane, centreline path |
| Stair tread (if private) | 150 lx | Uniform across tread width |
| Wardrobe interior | 200–300 lx | PIR-activated, 3000 K, CRI ≥ 90 |
| Exterior-to-interior ratio | ≤ 10:1 at threshold | Prevent adaptation shock at entry |
| CCT | 2700–3000 K | Consistent with adjacent rooms |
| Transition time (dimming) | 3–5 s fade | On entry scene activation — see LUX-04 |
03 — Malmö Apartment Layouts
Typical Malmö flat entry sequences vary by era. Ribersborg three-room flats often place the entry directly into a narrow hall (1.2–1.4 m wide) with bathroom and bedroom doors opening off it. A single ceiling-mounted diffuser or two small downlights at 1.0 m spacing suffices; avoid bright accents that draw attention to limited ceiling height.
Västra Hamnen open-plan units frequently eliminate the traditional hall, placing the entry door into the living zone. Here, a dedicated entry scene dims living ambient to 40% while activating a narrow-beam downlight pair flanking the door — providing orientation without full-room illumination at arrival.
04 — Zone Specification
| Zone | Fixture type | Control | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Main entry | Flush ceiling disc or mini downlight pair | PIR + manual override | PIR timeout 3 min default |
| Long corridor (> 4 m) | Recessed downlight, 1.5 m spacing | Linked to entry PIR circuit | Wall-wash alternate for art display walls |
| Coat niche | LED strip, 3000 K | Door jamb switch | IP20 sufficient |
| Threshold mat zone | Floor-level indirect (optional) | Entry scene only | Only where ceiling height > 2.80 m |
