Versatile luminaires bring a glow—and some surprising new features—to commercial spaces.
November 2018 Product Briefs: Lighting
Acoustic Shapes
This line of suspended PET felt–wrapped fixtures from LightArt expands the company’s integrated acoustic-lighting solutions by adding more than 40 sizes, ideal for large-scale commercial spaces. Acoustic Shapes LEDs (part of the Acoustic Collection) are dimmable and available in Box, a line of square and rectangular fixtures, and in Drum, or in wide-shade Ring, in diameters ranging from 30" to 16'.
Zume
Available in a 16" or 20" diameter with custom laser-cut patterns in its spun aluminum cap, Zume is built for rigorous outdoor settings such as public parks and boardwalks. The LED pendant is listed for wet locations and tested to withstand vibrations according to the American National Standard for Roadway and Area Lighting Equipment. Designers can specify the fixture mounted to a junction box under an existing structure or strung between two posts by a cable.
Pursuit
Pursuit by Architectural Area Lighting (a Hubbell Lighting brand) can be specified in L-, T-, and X-shaped modules or connected to form a 150' ribbon of illumination capable of wrapping a building or space. Invisible end-to-end connections on the copper housing and a flexible acrylic lens diffuser, which ships coiled and can be installed on-site, enable designers to achieve longer runs delivering up to 145 lumens per watt.
Flindt Wall
Based on the sculptural lines of Louis Poulsen’s Flindt Bollard, the moon-shaped Flindt Wall is meant to evoke a solar eclipse. The powder-coated sconce, available in Corten, White, and Aluminum finishes, is the latest in a collection from the Danish lighting manufacturer, which is all by Copenhagen-based designer Christian Flindt. Mounted to interior or exterior walls, the profile projects from its mounting hardware to allow two LEDs to emit light from an egress in back and from its gently curved hood in front.
Harvest Luminaire
Landscape Forms collaborated with Duluth, Minnesota–based Loll Designs on a line of communal outdoor tables and benches with optional 3200K LED tasklights built in. The furniture and light fixture are built from extruded aluminum bolted to steel supports and finished in the manufacturer’s special weather-resistant polyester-based powder-coating. The surfaces are made of high-density polyethylene. The standing-height table, with its optional 14"-tall light fixture, measures 37" deep x 95" wide, in heights of 46" or 54". A 6"-tall tasklight is available for dining-height versions.
Duraflex Neon
What appears to be neon is actually an adaptable and budget-friendly low-voltage LED. Designers can mount the extruded silicone luminaire using clips or an aluminum mounting channel, available in lengths of up to 30', to create a continuous line of illumination around architectural features. Options range from a 2700K to 4000K glow in Red, Green, Blue, Yellow, White, and Static White.
