the chosen ones
65
Nothing short of the unexpected, Pupil is full of surprises and contradictions. Using
nature as his muse, Dutch designer Basten Leijh created this organic, quirky shape: the
downlighter that does the opposite. And there’s more contradiction than meets the eye.
Pupil doesn’t blend, but fits right in. A perfect match with our K family member, K-set 72.
How’s that for modular?
Standing out
Small and curvy, the oval shape ends abruptly, cut off at an angle. An organic design
inspired by the curious eyes of a crab; Pupil is not for a discreet expression. The
unexpected direction of the light beam will grab attention. For a light beam pointing
straight down, tilt the housing slightly up. For a 30° beam angle, point the housing straight
down. Tilt the body 30°, and you have 60° light orientability for a wall-wash effect.
Fitting in
Just as this new design fits perfectly with the miniaturization trend, Pupil fits right in
the palm of your hand. Pupil’s playful design is additionally complemented by a brilliant
show of modularity. It works wonders with our established, iconic K family, our first-
ever adventure into technical architectural lighting. Thanks to K-set 72’s openings, Pupil
settles in snuggly inside as alternative to a K-72 spot. Or, a duo, trio or even a quartet of
Pupils, all in one plate!
Combining contradictions
Bring an extra touch of fun to a K family picnic. Create an installation of 2x, 3x, or 4x
recessed K72 downlighters combined with playful Pupils sticking out of the ceiling. By
pairing Pupil with spots, you can create a new fixture with both fixed and adjustable light
sources and illuminate special places in high-end residences, hospitality environments
and small boutiques. With K-set, or as standalone, Pupil’s gear is recessed in the ceiling.
Nothing but an inquisitive little eye will radiate warm light.
