Philips Ideally, every room in your home would have access to natural light, but the real world doesn't work like that. The new Philips Skylight, however, can recreate simulated sunlight anywhere you want.

As its name suggests, Philips's latest lighting creation is designed to be an LED-powered faux skylight that can be mounted anywhere you have a flat surface. It's available in two sizes (medium and large) and uses Philips parent company Signify's NatureConnect tech to reproduce the natural brightness and color tone of actual daylight. And because the light features an IP44 rating for dust and water resistance, you can even put it in a bathroom or somewhere else that may get a bit damp.
