RESULTS

PRODUCT
CHALLENGE
Luminous wall sconces can be an important element of a lighting design, adding a unique layer of perimeter light can brighten a space, create visual rhythm, or establish an artistic luminous element
The objective was to create an artistic grouping of day lit “port holes” on a side wall using Solatube Daylighting Systems in a nontraditional way.
SOLUTION
This unique application was constructed by installing Solatube Daylighting Systems configured with Spectralight Infinity 0-90 Degree Tubing. This allowed for a vertical tube run down a finished wall, creating a wall sconce lit by natural light.
ADDITIONAL OPTIONS
Additional decorative effects can be achieved by changing the decorative diffusers — for example, round to square diffusers
Daylight Dimmers can be used in switched circuits to allow occupants to adjust the brightness
Light Add-on Kits can be installed to provide electric light for night time use
This application can also be effectively used to backlight luminous signage, displays or artwork
