MILWAUKEE, June 12, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Visa
Lighting is excited to introduce the Celest collection. These
large-venue pendant lights boast three modern designs in geometric
shapes: triangle, rectangle, and hexagon. Each suspended pendant is
offered in two sizes, ranging from 2 to 6 feet.
Celest was designed with large, evenly-illuminated acrylic
lenses to provide high lumen output in a comfortable, glare-free
way. These bold architectural luminaires boast high lumen packages
that allow them to be major light sources in large open spaces such
as offices, lobbies, atriums, theaters, auditoriums, and conference
halls. The geometric fixtures are available with color temperatures
including 3000K, 3500K, and 4000K
with semi-direct or direct-indirect light distribution options.
The Celest collection is available in our 20+ standard painted
finishes, our exclusive eco-friendly alternative metal finishes,
and new acoustic-dampening materials in a broad range of neutral
and bright colors.
Acoustic-dampening materials absorb sound, reducing noise levels
in a room. Acoustic solutions are becoming more important as we
look to healthy office designs and large interior spaces of the
future. Some of the benefits of adding acoustic-dampening materials
to your large venue space include: the reduction of echoes and
background noise, improved sound quality for clear conversations,
and an increased sense of peacefulness that can help reduce stress
and improve well-being for those spending long periods within the
space.
Most acoustic-dampening light fixtures do not have enough
surface area to make a real difference unless many fixtures are
used. The Visa Lighting Celest pendants are large enough to provide
significant acoustic effects without overloading a space. Acoustic
panels are applied to the sides of the geometric shapes providing
multiple, large flat surface areas of sound dampening material;
it's also a fun way to add texture and color.
The Noise Reduction Coefficient, or NRC, is a measure of how
much sound a surface absorbs across the range of typical human
speech. Sabins are a measure of the equivalent area of an object if
it were made of 100 percent sound-absorbent material. Put in
mathematical terms, sabins = real area x NRC. This formula is a key
part of any acoustic calculation. The acoustic panels Visa Lighting
employ on Celest offer between 5.4 ft2 to 21.7 ft2 sabins,
depending on the model shape and size chosen. The bottom line is
that if you add more surfaces in your space with high sabins
values, it will decrease the sound reverberation time and create a
quieter environment.
Celest's large, paneled sides also provide the perfect canvas
for modification and custom opportunities. Logos, patterns, and
other custom designs can easily be added.
"When creating the Celest large-venue collection, our task was
to create a modern luminaire as an alternative to the traditional
large-venue bowl or dome lights," says Visa Lighting Product
Engineer Zac Perszyk. "We took this
to the next level by thinking about the needs of large-venue spaces
and addressing things like acoustics, reducing light glare, and
adding output options for emphasizing indirect or direct lighting.
Because we often process custom product requests, we also designed
these fixtures to be canvas-like, serving as a blank slate for a
designer's ideas."
Another feature of the Celest products is their
environmentally-friendly components. Our Celest collection is made
from highly recyclable and lightweight aluminum. The acoustic
dampening felt is 100 percent recyclable polyester material and can
assist with LEED project points. To reduce transportation costs and
packaging materials, these pendants are packed and shipped flat,
and the panels can be easily attached on-site.
