RESEARCH ABSTRACT:
We research the aesthetic trends in interior design main stakeholders, such as decorating magazines, journals in design, etc. Our goal was to get the aesthetic trends and transform them into design values to apply to our new luminaire. Our methodology was to observing market and competitors, systematization of findings, and interpretation of the results to synthesize the design guidelines. Also, we sought the integration of design and electronics for a perfect combination of functionality, aesthetics and performance.

CHALLENGE:
Aesthetically, the design of the luminaire has pursued better integration and continuity with the roof. The main obstacle has been getting a thin edge for ceiling integration, combined with a gradient shape to accentuate the skylight effect. The design was developed simultaneously with the selection of technical components for an optimum lighting, considered from the technical approach).
