Orlight at Faura, London

Both items below are installed at the Faura Interior Design Residency. The downlights are in the utility room, a technical space on the lower floor.

ORL1018 trimless downlights

Orlight designed the ORL1018 family as a trimless architectural downlight that appears virtually invisible in the ceiling. An anti-glare baffle reduces glare, and a magnetic lamp-change mechanism allows maintenance without damaging delicate ceiling finishes.

• Variants: fixed, adjustable, adjustable twin, fixed twin and adjustable triple; adjustable models rotate 360° and tilt.
• Protection: fixed variants are IP44 rated; adjustable variants are IP20.
• Construction: recessed trimless installation in aluminium, in all white (RAL 9010 or RAL 9016) or black (RAL 9005).
• Size: 65 mm diameter with a 70 mm cut-out per head.

Orlight recommends ORL1018 for refined residential, hospitality and architectural interiors where discreet integration, low glare and a clean ceiling matter. The range carries an Environmental Product Declaration.
