Honeycomb Asset Management, located at 645 Madison Avenue New York, aimed to create a workspace that supported the growth and a common purpose. They drew inspiration from the scalability and efficiency of honeycombs and used lighting solutions to create an inspiring workplace that promotes productivity and collaboration.
Spector Group designed this space to be able to cater to growth while adding the resources needed to achieve a common purpose. International Lights, our leading rep in New York helped specify the Duo 4, a seamless direct/indirect fixture that perfectly blends in with the space.
We “virtually” sat down with the Spector Group team to give us their thoughts on using Meteor’s Duo 4 Mini on this project.
How did the DUO 4 fixture with direct/indirect lighting help add to the “open atmosphere” design of the space?
Playing with Light – The Duo 4, being a direct/indirect fixture, illuminaites the underside of the slab, this helped with the perception of higher ceilings.
A customized height of 12” was required for this project. What was the main reason?
The existing ceiling height of the space was only 11’-0” so we wanted to make sure the bottom of the fixture was as high as possible but also to allow enough distance from the top of the fixture to the slab to ensure proper indirect light distribution.
The DUO 4 is a UGR <19 rated fixture. How satisfied were you with the glare and overall fixture on-site?
Glare Free – Glare did not appear to be an issue and lighting levels were adequate.
What controls was the fixture paired with and how satisfied were you with the dimming curve or smoothness of the dimming?
The lighting controls utilized was Wattstopper. The Duo fixtures dimming operations is satisfactory and it works well with the type of controls specified.
