This innovative lighting system features seven interlocking hexagonal panels that mimic the organic beauty of wood grain—offering a warm, artistic touch to any interior space.

Benefits & Use Cases
The Nanoleaf Elements Smarter Kit excels in versatility, making it suitable for diverse living situations and spatial needs. Homeowners can use it to enhance entertainment areas with dynamic color transitions during movie nights or social gatherings. Renters appreciate the non-invasive installation—no holes in walls, no landlord disputes—while still enjoying modern lighting technology. In professional settings like creative studios or co-working spaces, the modular nature supports evolving layouts as team sizes or project requirements change.
Bedrooms benefit from soft, adjustable tones that shift from energizing daylight hues to soothing evening gradients, promoting better sleep hygiene. The ability to expand later—by purchasing additional panel packs—makes this kit a future-proof investment. Users can start with the base seven-panel configuration and grow their design as desired, ensuring long-term value without upfront overcommitment.
Beyond functionality, Elements serves as statement decor. Its artistic appearance turns ordinary walls into focal points, blending seamlessly with minimalist, Scandinavian, or rustic interiors. Because each panel operates independently yet harmonizes within a networked system, users gain granular control—brightening one section for task lighting while dimming others for relaxation.
Important Notes
This Smarter Kit contains everything needed for immediate deployment: seven wooden-look hexagon panels, mounting tape strips, a USB-C power adapter, and access credentials for the Nanoleaf ecosystem. Before installation, ensure mounting surfaces are free of dust, grease, or loose paint for maximum adhesive strength. For optimal performance, keep firmware updated through the app and avoid covering ventilation ports on the back of panels.
While advanced automation—such as sunrise simulations or motion-triggered scenes—requires smartphone connectivity and stable Wi-Fi, basic operations remain accessible via physical touch. Expansion packs are sold separately if more panels are desired later, allowing gradual scaling without replacing existing units.
Note that direct contact with water, prolonged sun exposure, or temperatures outside 41°F–95°F may damage the product. Always unplug before cleaning with a dry cloth. Warranty coverage applies only to manufacturing defects under normal indoor usage conditions.

Beautiful, simple, and unique
Yes it has a large price tag but it’s more of an art piece and smart product produced at low volumes.Pros:Nice design with interlocking hexagons. I’d suggest to measure and lay out your design on the floor. Take a picture and hold up to the wall. Level your first hexagon perfectly then you don’t need to worry about the rest.Simple install. Once you get past your design anxiety and making sure your first hexagon is measured and near perfect, the rest just comes into place. They stay on the wall great.Smart home options. You can use their app and manage your lights there. It also comes with a “remote” that links to any of the hexagons you want. But you can also integrate with your favorite smart home solution. I personally use Home Assistant via HomeKit integration. You can also trigger different actions when you touch different hexagons, though this is more if you’re comfortable with smart home customization.Expandable. If I decided to add more hexagons or decorate the edges with colored triangles or lines, I could.Bright and variety of whites. You can use auto brightness adjust manually. Also set various whites from cool to warm to sunrise/sunset oranges. It comes with a large library of presets that you can save to your favorites for it to cycle upon shuffle, from cloud motion to star twinkle to starbursts to neon. Plus of course the music mode (if the music is in the same room, it doesn’t line up as much further away).Cons:Their app looks great but isn’t always reliable and firmware updates aren’t confidence-inspiring, though optional. Although compatible with Elements shapes, it’s more of an afterthought as it uses the same screens and sometimes gives you suggestions for RGB colors rather than just shades of white.For the price I wish you got an extra 2 or 3 hexagons. Or a more lightweight app. When I open it it seems like they want to upsell me.The “wood” itself is a bit too consistent and manufactured. Although this makes it easy to make sure the “grain” lines up to each other, it doesn’t feel as natural.Mixed feedback on removal. I tried to uninstall one and although I could see it be a bit awkward in a few years when I forget what the back looks like, it’s fine and replaceable with a spare 3m Command wall strip. I get the feeling that people who complain about removal don’t realize there’s a set way of removing the glue and instead accidentally rip them off. They’re like command strips and need to be stretched parallel to the wall and NOT pulled towards you away from the wall.If you have the time, knowledge, and tools, you could build this yourself at a third of the price. But that’s true with most anything: meals, computers, furniture, etc.

Best piece of ‘art work’ I’ve ever put on a wall
These are a brilliant invention (forgive the pun). They look good on a wall with or without the lights switched on. You don’t get colors with these hexagons, rather shades of white, from golden ember glows to bright whites. You can set them up from your iPhone with steady light, or waves of flickering whites, changing shades or intensity that wash gently across your pattern.They take a bit of setting up. Nanoleaf recommends setting them up temporarily first, such as on a table. It’s tricky to measure the dimensions to fit the wall where you want them: hexagons have their own dimensions, rather than squares which easily conform to width and height, so check and double check! But once you take the trouble to get it right, and set them up correctly with the connectors provided, it goes well when you apply them to your wall with the self-stickies on the back.I particularly like that I can abandon the iPhone and use a touch controller which they provide for you to place where you wish. You can select different lighting patterns and brightness from this control.I think the basic set doesn’t quite offer enough hexagons to make a satisfying pattern; they provide extender sets of three hexagons, and I bought two extensions to go with mine, giving me six extra to achieve the ‘look’ I wanted. Glad I did, but I wish they weren’t so expensive.The cost can seem prohibitive, but remember this is art work that can stay with you for the rest of your life and, in theory, you can even change the pattern after a few years, or when you move home. (They adhere firmly, so you may have to patch up the surface beneath them if you move them.)To sum up, these are not for flashy ‘disco-like’ color changers, more for those who like subtle changes in whites that wash across your pattern. Or let them hold steady with a warm glow. They’ll certainly be a focus of conversation and a comfort on dark winter nights.

Super easy to install! The app is confusing at first but play around with it and youâll be fine. These lights are the perfect ambience for anything really. The different settings and moods are great. Theyâre mesmerizing and beautiful.

The colour is slightly different than my initial set to which it attached too. It looks kinda weird.

We tried everything it just would not connect to Apple HomeKit or Nanoleaf app. We have watched all the videos online and even reset but it did not work. We are experience with smart products and use them all over the house so itâs not like we are new.

Looks fantastic at night and really sets a warm mood. But it keeps dropping Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity every few days and the Nanoleaf company support is via email only and they canât figure out how to fix it
