L&S Lighting for furniture: increasingly sustainable, flexible and emotional systems for customized and multifunctional spaces
In recent years, living spaces have undergone a profound evolution: there are no longer spaces dedicated to a single activity, furnishings have become multifunctional and products with functional versatility are required for more informal, fluid and flexible lifestyles.

The new solutions proposed by L&S at Sicam 2022 are aimed precisely at responding to these new needs of the furniture and design sector: versatility, modularity, modularity for perfect integration into furnishing projects, with the availability of high-efficiency light sources and “smart-home ready” solutions for light control, even remotely.

Versatile electrified modular systems for the different rooms of the house able to enhance the interior furnishings, from boiserie to lighting for bookcases, from walk-in closets to systems for the living area and for kitchens, all customizable for a refined and sartorial personalization.

 

Electrified modular systems: sustainable, flexible and versatile

The new modular electrified systems proposed by L&S are Hi Line, system for horizontal boiserie, Thin Line, innovative concept of electrified profiles that allows you to create with extreme versatility compositions of illuminated shelves and other furniture accessories, and Square Line, an electrified structure, extremely versatile and functional.

 

Hi Line: modular and versatile for any type of wall

Modular and versatile for any type of wall, Hi Line is a self-supporting luminous horizontal boiserie system. It allows you to create suspended or free-standing furnishing solutions, thanks to the combination of aluminum profiles complete with light and Solaris backlit panels. The Solaris range can in fact be integrated into the Hi Line system via a practical magnetic fastening.

Again thanks to this fastening system, the Hi line electrified modular system is also compatible with the range of accessories in the Sign line, thus providing a complete range of modular solutions: shelves for objects, open compartments, cabinets with glass or wood (upon request), allow you to create multiple compositions for maximum flexibility of use.

The Hi Line linear system, connected to the Mec Driver power supply platform, allows practical control of the lights using the wireless remote controls of the Smart L&S line, the App or through the integration of commercially available voice commands.
 

Thin Line: space for creativity

Thin Line is a modular electrification system for furnishing spaces. The heart of the system is an innovative concept of electrification of the profiles, patent pending, which allows you to easily assemble and move the illuminated shelves, without visible connections and in total safety.

Thanks to the wide range of brackets for shelves and accessories available, it is possible to compose the wall according to your needs. The Thin Line system is suitable for shops, offices and, in the home, for living areas or walk-in closets.

Thin Line also allows smart control, even remotely, of the light effects, using L&S wireless remote controls, the App or via commercially available voice commands.

 

Square Line: ideal solution for open-concept spaces

Shelving system with floor-to-ceiling or wall mounting, with integrated LED plug-andplay lighting components, Square Line is an ideal solution for open-concept spaces and new hybrid working and storage environments.

Electrified structure, extremely versatile and functional, Square Line combines an elegant black anodized aluminum finish with shelves in matt black laminate. The dedicated connector allows you to add accessories to the structure, without visible cables.


The sky-ground configuration can also be used to create "room-dividers", without masonry.
