The 3.5" x 3.5" trimless wall wash light is a high-performance architectural luminaire designed to provide smooth, uniform wall illumination while integrating seamlessly into drywall ceilings. Engineered with a shallow housing profile of just 2.6 inches, it is ideally suited for shallow or restricted plenum applications where space is limited. The true trimless design allows for mud-in drywall installation, creating a clean, modern aesthetic with no visible hardware. Its die-cast construction incorporates a precision reflector and heat sink, ensuring optimal brightness control, glare reduction, and long-term thermal performance. With reflector cut-off options of 50 degrees or 60 degrees, the fixture balances visual comfort with flexibility for both standard and very shallow ceiling conditions.
This wall wash downlight delivers lumen packages ranging from 700 to 1500 lumens and offers color rendering options at 80, 90, or 97 CRI, making it adaptable for a wide variety of commercial, residential, hospitality, and retail projects. A choice of static white color temperatures from 2700K to 4000K provides design flexibility, while additional options in Warm Dim (3000K–1800K or 2700K–1800K) and Tunable White ranges (Comfort 1800K–4000K, Preference 2700K–5000K, and Activity 2700K–6500K) allow the lighting to mimic natural circadian rhythms, support occupant well-being, and enhance mood or alertness throughout the day. For spaces where lighting atmosphere is paramount, the Warm Dim option recreates the glow of halogen and incandescent sources, while Tunable White technology provides dynamic adjustment to suit both functional and aesthetic needs.
The fixture integrates advanced control compatibility with a selection of dimming drivers, including 0-10V, DALI, Lutron EcoSystem, forward phase, and PoE (Power over Ethernet). Its proprietary LED array delivers superior color accuracy within 2 SDCM and maintains performance with L70 lifetimes exceeding 55,000 hours. With CRI 90 versions at 3500K and 4000K offering a cyanosis observation index (COI) of 3.3 or less, the luminaire is also suitable for healthcare environments requiring stringent color quality. Emergency lighting compatibility, outdoor-rated options for recessed covered ceiling applications, and UL/cUL listings for dry, damp, and wet locations extend its usability across multiple application types.
Durability and ease of installation are built into the system. The thermally protected housings are available in IC-rated airtight, non-IC, and non-IC wood ceiling versions, with butterfly brackets for ½" EMT mounting and optional bar hangers. The die-cast aluminum heat sink ensures efficient thermal dissipation, while the die-formed housing with integral junction box includes multiple knockouts for simplified wiring. Accommodating ceiling thicknesses up to 0.5" standard, with field adjustability up to 1.5", the fixture adapts easily to construction requirements.
Aesthetically, the luminaire features a die-formed aluminum reflector with an acrylic diffuser for smooth wall wash performance and glare-free optics. Trims are available in square overlap or trimless configurations, with finishes including Clear Diffuse, Warm Diffuse, Black, White, and optional biophilic-inspired “Naturals” finishes. Overlap trim options may also be specified with painted black or white flanges to complement architectural palettes. The torsion spring mounting system ensures the trim sits flush against the ceiling with no visible fasteners, contributing to the clean, seamless look.
The 3.5" x 3.5" trimless wall wash light combines shallow-plenum versatility, refined aesthetics, and advanced optical and control options. Its comprehensive range of lumen outputs, beam cut-offs, CRI levels, and control compatibility makes it a powerful tool for designers and specifiers seeking to elevate architectural environments with high-quality, flexible illumination.
