Zipline
%Zipline% is ideal for art and craft rooms, because display lighting modules with adjustable spotlights can be used to highlight displays.
Recessed and surface solutions
The %SkyDome% recessed luminaire provides very good vertical illumination as well as a very uniform horizontal illumination level. One of the surface Kanby ranges, such as the %Kanby Evo% or %Kanby Pro% will provide similar performance.
Track System
Adjustable spotlights such as the %Strike M% and %Strike S% are ideal for highlighting wall displays and easels.
SmartScan Lighting Management
Manual control is sometimes needed in order to dim the luminaires for demonstration and display events, so a %SmartScan Remote% may be configured with scenes that are selected at the touch of a button.
