UNIVERSE System

Reimagining traditional track lighting, Juniper developed this grid-based network, designed to be integral to the architectural scheme of a space. It revolves around a series of slim 7mm-thick linear modules and connectors that conceal low-voltage conduits. These components then power and magnetically hold coordinating mini-spotlights. The system is offered in three finishes.
