Many homeowners don’t know where to start with display fixtures, but specialists in fine art lighting can step in and guide the process from the start. They can determine which fixtures will work best in the space, and show them off to a homeowner so that they know what to expect with the system. Once the fixtures have been selected, the designer will study the installation area to determine optimal placement.
The most common art recessed lighting fixture used is the LED adjustable accent light. Older low voltage accent lights utilized a MR16 lamp with various beam patterns and kelvin colors for accenting works of art. LED framing projectors offer three advantages over conventional art lighting techniques. First, they use a focused light source that can be shaped to fit the object creating a lighted from within look. Second, they are LED and not harmful to artwork. And finally, they come in both recessed and surface mount models.
For example, Phantom Lighting’s optical framing projectors produce a unique look that is aided with concealment. When working with a framing projector, the designer will look for a spot that provides excellent cover while preserving the best aiming angle. Installation will be comparatively quick and simple, and in a professional’s hands, it will be done flawlessly. And once a homeowner sees the end result, they will completely understand why a professional designer was the right choice.
