Aperture SkyCeiling Sky Factory, Inc.
—Asad Syrkett Aperture SkyCeilings are circular or elliptical virtual skylights that modify the perception of planar relationships through a multisensory oculus that heightens the spatial plausibility of open sky. Aperture generates its potent biophilic illusion by incorporating three new features: first, no support grid across the opening; second, a 7/8-inch gap or interstice between the image panel and the trim; and third, a hidden mechanical wall with a reflective surface that prevents the viewer from perceiving a distinct edge to the sky image.

“Though natural light is hard to fake, I appreciate the effort to use LED lighting in ways that bring sunlight’s positive effects into spaces without it.” —Asad Syrkett
OUTDOOR LIGHTING & ELECTRICAL
Motive Outdoor Lighting Landscape Forms
Motive is a sophisticated family of lights that blurs the line between indoor and outdoor lighting to create out-of-the-ordinary settings. The comprehensive family includes area lights, a path light, a wall-mounted light, a pendant light, and an outdoor floor lamp. Each offers superior performance and its own visual experience. Motive lights employ a hidden light source and, depending on the fixture, clear or diffused lenses and one to three distribution patterns. The area and path lights allow for a delicate play of illumination as the cascading light creates an ombré-like effect on the tapered poles.
“The best outdoor lighting aids in wayfinding without being visually obtrusive, and Motive strikes a balance between good looks and functionality across several applications.” landscapeforms.com
