About this project
For this Leixlip installation, the lighting follows the arms beneath the fabric. A dimmer adds control over brightness, making the lights more flexible than a simple on-or-off arrangement.
The five-metre awning projects 3.5m from the building. Its anthracite frame is paired with fabric reference 7552, with the photographs showing the finished combination.
Following the canopy structure with light
Arm lighting makes the supporting structure part of the evening appearance. It places the light beneath the fabric as the arms extend into the area below, rather than concentrating it only at the front edge.
The dimmer gives this Leixlip installation another level of adjustment. When considering something similar, explain how you use the space after dark and where people usually sit. Those details help make the lighting discussion about everyday use rather than simply adding another feature.
Solution and installation
Motorisation and a wind sensor are included alongside the lighting. With the canopy open, the LEDs sit within the supporting structure overhead. This project offers a useful reference for arm lighting with adjustable brightness.
