Handrail with integrated effect light

with asymmetric light beam

The company Fischer Reinach AG (Aargau, Switzerland) had a particular focus on light for the remodeling of its headquarter. For this project they decided for an extraordinary lighting concepts that definitely did not miss its target.

For the stairwell of the office building, a constant and indirect light effect was projected, that should create a welcoming atmosphere, leading staff and visitors to the offices and conference rooms.

The solution was a FIACCOLA U48-handrail with asymmetric light beam and reverse fitting, that does not emit the light directly on the stairs as usual, but on the wall, generating a comfortable and smooth light effect on wall and floor.

This concept lends itself especially for wall mounted handrails, which can be used furthermore as photometric design element and visual guideline. This system can replace the sometimes complex integration of light strips in wall, ceiling or floor.
