A lighting device for notification and/or atmosphere creation is disclosed. The lighting device (100) comprises at least one light source (102) arranged for rendering a light output. The lighting device (100) further comprises a detector (104) arranged for detecting a first orientation of the lighting device (100) and a receiver (106) for receiving a first signal from a first device (110). The lighting device (100) also comprises a processor (108) arranged for generating a first light setting based on the first signal and the first orientation of the lighting device (100), and for controlling the light output of the at least one light source (102) based on the first light setting in order to apply the generated light setting, wherein the detector (104) is further arranged for detecting a user input indicative of a reorientation of the lighting device (100), and for detecting a second orientation based on the reorientation, and wherein the processor (108) is further arranged for generating a second light setting, based on the first signal and the second orientation of the lighting device (100), and for controlling the light output of the at least one light source (102) based on the second light setting, wherein the light output in the first orientation is different from the light output in the second orientation. This allows a user to change the orientation of the lighting device (100) (e.g. by rotating the lighting device (100)) in order to further control the light setting of the lighting device (100). This further allows the user to control the light notification setting of the lighting device (100) or the atmosphere created by the lighting device (100), while the light setting remains in accordance with the setting of the first device (110).
