Situation - A major distributor for one of the largest U.S. contract furniture manufacturers was commissioned by an international banking concern to outfit their new office facility in NYC with partitions, desks, furniture and cabinets. This included under cabinet task lighting needs for the open office landscape cubicles.

Challenge - This manufacturer makes seven different styles of furniture. All seven styles where used at various locations throughout the facility. The customer wanted one task lighting system that would work with all seven different shelf/cabinet designs. It need to be easily installed and once in place, allow its position under the shelf to be changed. The fixture also need to be easily uninstallable without the use of any tools. Quality lighting that prevented direct glare from the fixture and reflected glare and shadows on cubicle work surfaces was a prime concern.

Crownlite�s Process - Crownlite evaluated the details and layouts of each furniture style, interviewed workers using the cubilcles, and watched them in action. It became evident that each employee needed to move and adjust their own lighting, shelves and work surfaces. During Crownlite�s design process, we built prototype fixtures and mocked up each of the seven styles of furniture and help the customer to make their final choices.

Solution / Result - Crownlite designed a unique lighting system that mounted with the lamp facing the rear of the cubicle, projecting light back into the cubicle and allowing it to reflect forward off the rear and side walls of the cubical itself and onto the work surfaces. The whole undershelf area becomes one big indirect light fixture. Using this non-traditional approach we where able to eliminate most glare and shadows. Employee fatigue decreased and productivity went up. 2�, 3�, and 4� fixtures mount using either a spring or slide latch system that does not require any tools to install, move, or remove, and that fits to all seven styles of furniture. The fixtures were produced on time and in budget. 500+ were installed in the bank�s top three facilities.
