IN-022 · LED
Minimal coffered-ceiling lighting with a soft, quiet glow.
IN-022 reduces ornament so the grid proportion and the reflected light can do most of the visual work.

Designing concealed LED light with IN-022
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
Its streamlined profile is best paired with a restrained, continuous wash. Excessive output can overpower the small detail, so evenness matters more than brightness.
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
This approach suits compact rooms, contemporary additions and bright minimal interiors where the ceiling should feel calm.
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
Choose the appropriate profile size for the ceiling height and grid spacing, then test the strip output at the intended dimming level before the final finish.
Also establish wiring routes, driver location and access, heat management and dimming compatibility before the beam details are closed and finished.
