Factorylux, the innovative UK manufacturer of hybrid (architectural + decorative) lighting was selected by Xicato, a leading manufacturer of intelligent light sources based in San Jose, California, to deliver a 'futuristic industrial' lighting concept at Light + Building 2016.
The overall concept was designed and specified by Light Collective, the eclectic UK lighting design, art, event, media and communication practice. It was installed at Xicato Man's Secret HQ in Frankfurt for Light + Building 2016.
The centerpeice was a bespoke IoT (internet of things) installation, created using 12 Carmine Red Factorylux Vitreous Enamel Pendants with gobo projectors. The light level was controllable via Twitter, using special hashtags created for the event and enabled by Xicato’s new XIM intelligent lighting module.
Xicato Man's HQ also featured a range of standard Factorylux products, including bulkhead lights, enamel pendants and prefabricated modular steel conduit. All luminaires featured either Xicato XTM or XIM modules. All the products featured on the Xicato stand can be configured and specified now at factorylux.com.
The Factorylux team - R&D, product design and sales - also presented prototypes of new Factorylux architectural spotlights to international designers, specifiers and distributors.
