/ LUMINAIRE ARCHIVE

Physical fixtures. Designed shadows.

We select architectural luminaires for their ability to disappear into the structure. These physical samples demonstrate how concrete, steel, and timber react to precise beam angles.

■ TECHNICAL SPECIMENS

Selected for raw materiality

Luminaires stripped of decorative pretense. We evaluate fixtures purely by their physical durability, thermal management, and how their lenses control glare on raw concrete.

Linear Baffles

Facade Projectors

Trimless Cones

Deep-set honeycomb louvers designed to eliminate glare in hotel corridors, casting light only where the architecture demands.

IP67-rated milled aluminum cylinders that trace vertical concrete columns with sharp, narrow-angle beams.

Plaster-in apertures that completely disappear into the ceiling plane, leaving only a quiet pool of low-glare illumination.

LIGHT DISTRIBUTION

Three modes of quiet illumination

01 / GRAZING

Highlighting raw texture

Placing fixtures millimeters from the wall to cast long shadows across board-marked concrete and textured stone facades.

02 / WALL WASHING

Uniform vertical rhythm

Wide, highly engineered lenses that flood vertical planes with flat, quiet light, expanding the perceived volume of hotel lobbies.

03 / INDIRECT GLOW

Concealed source comfort

Cove details and structural recesses that bounce light off ceilings, providing glare-free navigation in hospital corridors.

Realize the unquantifiable atmosphere.

A Dialux simulation gets us eighty percent of the way. Let us resolve the remaining twenty percent on-site with physical samples.
