DESIGN NAME: Auroom
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Lighting System
INSPIRATION: We used to create minimalistic black-and white fixtures and track systems that mostly fit modern interiors and found out that our some of the clients have a firm demand for classic and wooden interiors as well. So, while creating this system we were inspired by the aesthetics of wooden houses and interiors using natural materials in furnish that are very popular in Russia. We needed to find a golden mean between modern decorative elements and at the same time our unique style.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Brass track system is distinguished by the compact dimensions and looks aesthetically pleasing in a residential interior. The system allows easily change the number of fixtures and their placement. System provides a wide range of luminaires. They can be rotary, directional, linear with directional light, with diffused light. All of them are presented in a bright trend color: natural brass. A special mechanical or magnetic connector ensures durable fixture mounting.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: Supports wireless light control via Casambi Bluetooth using a mobile application. Also, the luminaires have high brightness and support a 1-10V brightness adjustment function.
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The project has been started in January 2019 in Moscow and will represented in Frankfurt at an exhibition Lighting Building in March 2020.

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: The track contains a brass profile, 2 brass busbars connected by a dielectric. Thus, the power goes directly along the track, without additional connecting wires to each lamp.
The system is low voltage. The track is connected to the electrical network through a power supply that converts the voltage of 220 V to 42 V. Such a system is absolutely safe even when you touch the track. Several types of power supplies can be used: either recessed ones or a surfaced canopy 100W, 150W, 240W

RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Before developing final version of system we created dozens of drawings, 3d and cnc samples. We discussed them with designers, marketing team, sales managers, as it was highly important for us to get their feedback and forecast potential needs of our clients. The system is produced at our factory in China. We send statement of work and keep under control each stage of production. We check the lighting effect, functionality, quality of materials and perfection in the appearance of each item.
CHALLENGE: First of all we wanted to create minimalistic connectors that would provide electricity. Our engineers not only managed to do it but also designed two-level connectors that allow to connect the tracks at an any angle. Another problem occurred because of the material: brass eventually darkens naturally. We have developed a unique track coating that prevents the oxidation (darkening) of the track for 7-10 years, and at the same time conducts electricity.
