Engineered to the finest detail for unsurpassed performance and design sophistication, MODERN FORMS is established by WAC Lighting as a future forward manufacturer and innovative brand of unique, upscale LED luminaires. MODERN FORMS, with an initial offering of more than 26 families and 160 styles, was designed to complement a diverse array of architectural interiors and exteriors while delivering high quality, functional illumination for luxury homes, hotels and commercial spaces.
MODERN FORMS features a full presentation of bath and outdoor luminaires based on a concept to achieve superior illumination from clean upscale forms made possible exclusively with LED technology. Five powder coat finishes, marine-grade stainless steel and a variety of sizes permit maximum versatility in style and application. Low profile sconces conform to ADA requirements and are scaled to both interior and exterior settings.
MODERN FORMS demonstrates a range of designs and technology on the cutting edge of fine bath lighting. The edge lit Neo adapts the latest technology from the television and display industry to create phenomenal light output from a half-inch deep luminaire. While stunning Piastra glass dates back to the 13th century in the Vetri family sparkles under spectacular LED illumination. The comprehensive Vogue collection of sconces and bath brackets is paired with stylish flush mounts with double the illumination of anything else in the market, and the commanding Jedi luminaires are engineered with high tech, single spot multi chip LED sources that project narrow beams of light for ambient illumination and wall grazing for upscale indoor and outdoor applications.
“Our goal was to design distinctive luminaires that will suit the clean look of today’s baths regardless of the style of the home—whether it is traditional, transitional or contemporary,” explained Shelley Wald, President of WAC Lighting. “Focused on refining classic silhouettes of glass artistry and metalwork, we scaled-up hardware and heavy-gauge material, enhanced clean edges and worked on tightly engineered fit and finish throughout the line to coordinate with upscale bath faucets and fixtures.”
Designed for safe ambient lighting and architectural accenting, LED outdoor luminaires maximize light output and illuminate wall surfaces and pathways. Forq renders an industrial sculpted form with LEDs sealed in with glass diffusers. This contrasts with the cutting edge abstract design of Dawn that combines an indirect ambience with direct downlighting. Functional performance is also featured in the Tube design that converts 18 watts into nearly 900 fixture lumens.
“To suit the exteriors of today’s homes, Modern Forms offers high performance LED luminaires designed with concealed hardware, minimalist styling and no visible screws for a clean architectural look,” said Ms. Wald. “Distinctive low profiles with understated simplicity are coupled with versatility in design and scaling for interiors or exteriors.”
Utilizing proprietary energy efficient LED technology, MODERN FORMS luminaires feature LED modules engineered to deliver superlative consistent light quality, lumen output and a high color rendering index (CRI). State of the art components, including replacement LED modules and drivers, are manufactured in miniature sizes to create a multitude of new possible designs. All LED luminaires can be dimmed to meet user preferences and priced for everyday saleability.
Also available to the market for the first time are the ecofriendly, ultra thin Vela Organic LED (OLED) chandelier and wall sconce featuring sustainable nanotechnology that translate the future of lighting into a unique statement for today.
