Packed with LED fixtures in every possible direction, the show was equal parts about showcasing cutting edge technology and performance, and ensuring that those qualities were housed within a striking aesthetic design. As we scoured the floor for our favorites, illuminated beneath each brand&#8217;s most daring, eye-catching designs, it was hard to ignore the common finish that just won&#8217;t seem to go away, season after season: matte and satin black.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Another detail that we noticed was that increasing numbers of brands were scaling up their usage of this finish, not only encasing single fixtures but also massive integrated lighting systems. These systems allow critical flexibility for architects to build upon a foundation, and grow and adapt it to fit their most challenging projects needs. In this round up, you will discover a sleek fixture for every typological setting, from unassuming residential spaces to grand commercial spaces.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_42510\" style=\"width: 1229px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-42510\" class=\"size-full wp-image-42510 lazy lazy_media_item\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/intervals-image4.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1219\" height=\"718\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/intervals-image4.png 1219w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/intervals-image4-300x177.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/intervals-image4-768x452.png 768w, https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/intervals-image4-1024x603.png 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1219px) 100vw, 1219px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-42510\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Image via <a href=\"https:\/\/sonnemanawayoflight.com\/Intervals\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sonneman<\/a><\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Intervals<\/strong> by <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/architizer.com\/brands\/sonneman\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sonneman <\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Designed for expansive architectural settings, Intervals stood its ground this week as it weaved across the entire expanse of Sonneman\u2019s Lightfair booth.
