Understated elegance brings timeless options to light: Lightolier expands its decorative lighting family with new Brisa Linear Surface Mount
Fall River, MA - Lightolier, the leader in interior lighting for over a century, has introduced Brisa Architectural Decorative Linear Surface Mount. These elegant luminaries showcase clear and opal glass against a brushed aluminum frame: the opal glass evenly diffuses light while the clear float glass highlights reflections. The luminaries can be mounted in a variety of fashions: horizontally wall mounted, vertically wall mounted or ceiling mounted to meet a variety of architectural lighting needs. Brisa is ADA compliant, and its energy efficient T5 lamping helps architects meet their sustainability goals. Brisa also incorporates battery back up for an integrated emergency option, and also provides commercial dimming and DALI options as well.

"Brisa's dramatic profiles and lines, coupled with its minimal, clean design aesthetic, are ideal to enhance a variety of contemporary interiors - and extensive mounting flexibility makes them easy to incorporate into existing designs," says Rick Meyer, Lightolier General Manager for Architectural Decorative. "Brisa can also be used to complement our other decorative offerings, such as the Vetro pendants and downlights."

Brisa sconces are available in three styles:
  • The Bow Series features a unique convex contour that juxtaposes a diffuse field of light with a narrow outline. Bow is available in three widths: 3", 5" and 9".
  • The Curve Series is arched to minimize the appearance of exposed metal and diffuse light evenly. Curve is available in three lengths: 24", 36" and 48".
  • The Planar Series features a rectangular profile with a clear float glass outline, suspended within a brushed aluminum frame. Planar is available in three lengths: 24", 36" and 48".
