About Konarka

What’s in a Name

Konarka is inspired by the Sun Temple of Konark — an architectural monument built around light, geometry, and precision. The structure was designed to track the movement of the sun, integrating illumination into architecture itself.

We chose the name because light is not an accessory.
It defines how a space feels, how materials appear, and how people experience a room.

At Konarka, we believe lighting should be engineered with the same intention.

Why We Started Konarka

LED lighting has become efficient and affordable.
But quality has become inconsistent.

Many products are marketed around brightness and price, while the characteristics that actually shape a space are overlooked:

How accurately wood tones and fabrics render
Whether dimming feels smooth or abrupt
Whether flicker creates subtle visual fatigue
Whether color temperature stays consistent across fixtures

We created Konarka to focus on those details.

Our goal is straightforward: offer lighting products that perform predictably and render spaces honestly.

Designed Around Real Applications

We don’t start with part numbers.
We start with how light is used.

Under cabinet lighting should reveal texture without glare.
Retail display lighting should preserve material accuracy.
Office lighting should feel even and stable throughout the day.
Residential ambient lighting should dim smoothly and remain comfortable at night.

Every product in our catalog exists because it serves a clear application.

If it doesn’t, we don’t carry it.

Strips, Panels, and Bulbs — One Philosophy

Konarka offers three primary product categories:

Strip Systems
Linear lighting designed for architectural and task environments.

Precision Panels
Uniform, high-accuracy flat lighting for ceilings and workspaces.

High-Accuracy Bulbs
Thoughtfully engineered replacements for everyday fixtures.

Across all categories, we prioritize:

Strong color rendering
Consistent color temperature
Controlled flicker
Stable dimming performance

These are not premium features. They are foundational requirements.

Measured, Not Marketed

We believe specifications should be clear and meaningful.

Where possible, products are informed by engineering validation and real performance data. We share the information that helps customers make informed decisions — not just the information that looks good on a product page.

Lighting affects how everything else appears. It deserves transparency.

Built for Direct Purchase

Konarka is designed to be straightforward.

You shouldn’t need a quoting cycle for standard lighting systems.
You shouldn’t need to decipher compatibility through guesswork.

We curate products, recommend pairings, and present technical information clearly — so decisions feel confident rather than complicated.

A Higher Baseline

Our intention is not to offer the widest catalog.
It is to offer a better baseline.

Lighting that renders materials accurately.
Lighting that dims smoothly.
Lighting that feels intentional.

Engineered Light.
