Highlighting emphasises individual objects or architectural elements. This makes it possible to establish a hierarchy of how noticeable each item is and to attract attention.

Accent lighting enables good appreciation of form and surface structure. The focused light produces pronounced shadows and good modelling ability, as well as brilliance. A narrow beam and a high brightness contrast to the surroundings give the object particular emphasis.
