IB-07 lighting design guide
IB-07 · LED
A crisp contemporary grid with continuous indirect light.
IB-07 brings a disciplined linear character to the ceiling and becomes especially graphic when its hidden light is carried cleanly through each crossing.
Design and lighting guide
Designing concealed LED light with IB-07
The profile, source position and reflecting surface must be planned together. That coordination is what turns a hidden linear source into an architectural ceiling effect.
Let the profile geometry lead
The profile’s crisp edges need an equally precise light boundary. The source belongs behind the upper return, leaving the front face opaque and white while the ceiling receives a soft gradient.
Treat the strip, channel and diffuser as one system; confirm their setback and aiming with the selected components. The principle is related to architectural light coves, adapted here to the beams of a coffered or waffle ceiling.
Match the effect to the room
Use it in modern living rooms, media rooms and open plans where long sightlines make alignment and continuity easy to appreciate.
Control the ambient layer separately from recessed spotlights or decorative fixtures so the room can shift from everyday use to a quieter evening scene.
Plan the concealed components
Lay out complete illuminated runs before choosing driver locations. Corner continuity, dimming range and voltage drop should be reviewed as one system rather than one beam at a time.
Also establish wiring routes, driver location and access, heat management and dimming compatibility before the beam details are closed and finished.
