The small linear form factor has quickly moved into the design vernacular. There’s no point dancing around it, Iguzzini redefined the downlight category with the Laser Blade. But like any innovation in the industry, once a product is defined it can be improved upon. Luminii has taken the small linear downlight to an entirely new level with their introduction of Stenos.

The Stenos Downlight

The first thing to understand is that Stenos is small. Super small. The GIF above isn’t a rendering. It’s an actual set of Stenos modules compared to dice cubes. You can tell the emphasis is on size because Luminii lists the Stenos downlights by aperture length - 3” 5” and 12”

It’s only 1.9” deep and mounts with spring clips. (Don’t be afraid to ask for different mounting details). This little module is IC and wet-rated as-is and doesn’t require any further box or protection, making it great for residential applications. This is also a constant voltage product and uses Luminii’s existing power supplies including the universal PDCU series.

The Stenos downlight is available as an adjustable, offering a 30-degree rotation off-nadir. There isn’t a wall washer (yet!) but accenting table tops, sculptural art, and even some wall art is well within Stenos’ capability.

Now, let’s talk Stenos Track

Stenos is also available in a stunningly small track profile. The track is available both as recessed and surface-mounted. The track field-cuttable and two-circuit, which allows you to break up circuits for say ambient and accent lighting (more on ambient in a second). There’s no visible hardware and Luminii offers blank covers should some sections go unused.

Now let’s talk power

Just like the downlights, Stenos track is a constant voltage system that can utilize Luminii’s standard drivers. The way the track is fed balances power to the two circuits creating a 48 watt limit per circuit. Given the low wattage of the fixtures, this should be more than enough headroom. The track system cut sheet shows the array of feeders for both the surface and recessed track, including corners, t-shape, and x-shape connectors.

Ambient Light

We keep all of the downlighting modules we started with and add two ambient modules at 2’ft and 4ft long. I could easily see this system at home in lobbies, conference rooms, small galleries, restaurants and hotels, and a host of other locations where varied light is required.

It’s All About The Light

The Stenos platform was designed from the ground up by Luminii and carries all of the Luminii sensibilities. The chipset and TIR optics are proprietary and patent pending. This isn’t just another off-the-shelf product, it’s Luminii through and through. More capabilities are coming to Stenos, which I’m not allowed to talk about just yet. But here are some points to leave with you with.

It’s Quiet

Designed to tuck the light source up and away and employing louvers, this is designed to give you an incredibly quiet ceiling.

It’s Efficient

When using low-voltage efficacy is everything, you will not find a brighter or more efficient fixture in this category. This will easily meet Title 24 and the design minimizes the number of remote drivers required.

It’s Flexible

Lens, louvers, and modules can be changed quickly and easily in the field. Your client shifts the layout - no problem.

Get Your Hands On Some Samples

This is one of those products you just have to see. Luminii is rolling out sample cases in just about a week and I want to show you one. This is important enough that I’ll be reaching out to my designers individually, but if you don’t want to wait, use the button below and email me to book a demonstration either remotely or in-person.
