Inverters are a superior solution for emergency lighting most of the time, and yet, they aren’t specified as often as they should be. Stop being afraid of inverters and start specifying them. In this video my colleague Olena and Kyle Keller of Evenlite will take you through Inverters 101
After 18 months of virtual design tools it’s time to see light in person again. There’s no better place than the USAI Showroom in SoHo.

Integration is a trendy buzzword in the industry these days, but the partnership between USAI and Armstrong Ceilings is an example of true integration between two design elements - lighting and ceilings.

Acoustical tile ceilings conjure images of drab corporate interiors. Dull white ceilings with dull grey carpets and beige cubical walls. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Over the last few years, Armstrong Ceilings has partnered with a select few lighting vendors to create cool-looking and easy-to-install lighting solutions. Aron Lighting is one of the factories doing their part to elevate the acoustical tile ceiling and its illumination into something amazing.

I’m really proud of this one. Most of my daily videos this month have been quick hits on a few products. I admit, this one is a little bit longer than our normal shed videos, but I think it’s worth the time. Wellness is definitely an industry buzzword these days and many manufacturers have jumped in especially with the growing prominence of the WELL Building Standard.
All that said, no manufacturer has gone through more effort to embrace wellness through their products and information than ALW. With a dedicated landing page on their website, extensive information on their cut sheets, and amazing product design, ALW has created a suite of products that’s ready to meet WELL by means of glare control, circadian lighting, and acoustical sound dampening.
In this session, Cory Tysoe takes me through that offering with information, examples, and concepts.
In this piece, Shakil Ahmad takes us through the Joint system with a live demonstration from the Coronet showroom in Manhattan. We go through the design concept, how to specify, and some potential applications for this lego-block system of light.
