This ADA-compliant decorative wall sconce combines a hexagonal design with acoustic functionality, featuring a shade constructed from TriCore™ PET felt. Offered in two nominal sizes—27 inches or 42 inches in diameter, with less than 4 inches in thickness—this fixture provides a sculptural aesthetic that enhances interior spaces while addressing acoustic comfort. Designed exclusively for wall or vertical mounting, the sconce may not be ceiling-mounted, and the total weight of the luminaire does not exceed 10 pounds.
The proprietary TriCore™ acoustic construction is patent pending and offers superior sound absorption across a broad range of frequencies. Constructed from 100% polyester felt containing up to 28.7% recycled PET plastic bottles, the material is moisture resistant and meets ASTM E-84 Class A fire safety standards. This combination ensures both environmental responsibility and durable performance suitable for commercial offices, higher education settings, and hospitality environments. The hexagonal form not only improves acoustic comfort but also delivers a visually striking element that can function as a standalone fixture or as part of a coordinated wall cluster.
Performance is optimized through a proprietary LED module that incorporates premium diodes on a robust platform to ensure excellent thermal management. LEDs are positioned to provide uniform output across the surface, and color temperatures are available in 2700K, 3000K, 3500K, and 4000K, with 80 or 90 CRI options. LED modules are replaceable from below, and color accuracy is maintained at less than 3 SDCM. Lumen outputs vary across five settings, achieving a maximum of 2,285 lumens, allowing the fixture to meet the needs of both ambient and accent lighting applications. The integrated white reflector and soft hexagonal shallow profile deliver indirect, comfortable light that enhances the visual environment without glare.
Electrical performance is supported by a standard 120–277V driver with 0–10V analog dimming capabilities, ensuring a power factor greater than 0.9. The luminaire is UL and cUL listed for dry locations and is designed for indoor use only. Maintenance is simplified through a dust-resistant design and smooth surfaces that can be wiped down with a damp, lint-free cloth or vacuumed, avoiding abrasive contact that could compromise the illuminated surface. Lumen maintenance is robust, with reported L70 exceeding 72,000 hours and calculated results up to 189,000 hours, ensuring long-term performance.
For applications requiring flexible electrical configurations, the wall sconce can integrate with a remote power system. The plug-and-play modular remote power box is designed for surface or wall mounting in non-recessed conditions, with options suitable for open ceilings or adjacent electrical rooms. A mud-in Type IC version allows direct contact with insulation. Low-voltage Class 2 cabling enables multiple fixtures to be daisy-chained, reducing the need for conduit in open ceiling designs. These systems support consistent illumination across various fixture spacings and maintain UL and cUL compliance.
Aesthetic customization extends to finish options for both the visible stem and light engine, including matte black, matte white, and palladium silver. Shade colors are standard in silver gray with a white interior, with custom shades available upon request. The luminaire provides a soft, indirect glow through the dust cover, producing visually comfortable ambient light that complements the acoustic performance of the TriCore™ construction.
Overall, this hexagonal wall sconce combines decorative appeal, acoustic control, and efficient LED technology, making it a versatile solution for environments that require both aesthetic impact and functional acoustic performance. Its modularity, dimming capabilities, and remote power integration make it suitable for a wide range of commercial, educational, and hospitality applications.
