Cooledge Lighting

Cooledge exploits the full potential of LEDs to fuse light with architecture itself. By supplanting bulbs and fixtures with fully luminous surfaces, we allow the design industry to rethink common spaces as highly customizable and dynamic environments – where illumination is the primary influencer on how we feel, work, shop and interact. Backed by proprietary technologies, award-winning products and thousands of installations, our vision is to give light a new role in the built environment; integral to design, unhindered by staid infrastructure and essential to our experience of space.

Our innovative products and solutions have received international acclaim from lighting and design industries for advancing the art and science of light with groundbreaking solutions that, perhaps for the first time, truly unites form with function.

Creating luminous surfaces for illumination requires a unique understanding of the interaction between light and architectural diffusion materials. Cooledge has used its depth of knowledge, emulating the canopy of light we call the sky, to deliver lighting solutions for virtually any ceiling including acoustic FABRILum luminaires, dynamic W+RGB FABRIColor luminaires, simple FABRICated Luminaires, and a full range of custom Specialty Illumination Solutions.

Cooledge luminous ceiling products not only provide illumination that brings the feeling of the outdoors to open plan spaces. Unlike any other lighting products available today, their exceptional sound absorbing properties and - most importantly - superior size, also deliver an inherent advantage over traditional lighting approaches for reducing noise in open designs where sound pollution is a significant source of dissatisfaction for occupants and users.

Lighting is one of the most important components of designing for wellness. Cooledge luminous ceiling products offer significant advantages compared to traditional approaches by delivering immersive illumination that scores points in virtually all of the applicable design categories used in the new standards that define what is required of lighting to meet the needs of people. As a bonus, Cooledge luminous ceiling products also help address requirements for noise control.

Immersive illumination is a subjective feeling of being surrounded by light in a way that feels comfortable and natural, like being outside. Immersive illumination is surprising: it delivers high levels of illumination but "feels like less" because we are used to experiencing localized higher levels of illumination created by traditional points and lines of light as inherently bright and in many cases somewhat uncomfortable.

While LEDs have improved the efficacy, control, and quality of lighting, the technology has not changed the way illumination is designed and delivered. Lighting continues to be confined to the same bulbs and metal boxes the industry has used since its inception. Cooledge fundamentally changes this paradigm.

LumiScapes by Cooledge is our lineup of luminaires offered exclusively online and through our Acoustics Partners to deliver the combination of immersive illumination and true acoustic performance to projects large and small that may not require the expertise of a lighting designer.

Cooledge gives lighting a new role in the built environment: integral to design, unbound by fixtures and central to occupant wellness. The company transforms ceilings into light-emitting canvases that scale with ease and generate immersive, uniformly-distributed illumination more closely resembling natural than artificial light. This is made possible by the industry’s widest range of lighting systems, large-scale luminaires and specialty solutions designed to put light where it best serves people and how they feel, work, shop and interact in a space.
