"ETERNA" is a modular recessed lighting fixture designed for suspended ceilings. The philosophy of the design is to create an innovative, comfortable, and healthy lighting fixture that offers endless creativity and sustainability for users. Eterna's innovative form goes beyond the limits of traditional two-dimensional modular lighting structures. It creates a new vision in the modular lighting category with its three-dimensional organic form inspired by nature, bringing a new dynamism, ambiance, and aesthetic value to various architectural places. The design language explored in Eterna is the fusion of streaming surfaces, inspired by the reclining forms of deserts and waves. The main conceptual terms of the design are fluidity and continuity, which best describe the appearance of Eterna. Its unique and innovative form enables it to be combined with each other in both axes endlessly, allowing users to create fluid and continuous surfaces on ceilings with desired amounts and shapes. Additionally, Eterna is an environmentally friendly, energy-efficient, and sustainable lighting fixture with its innovative lighting technology. The "Circadian Lighting System" is an innovative technology that provides the most comfortable and healthy light control in accordance with people's biorhythm, depending on the light intensity and color throughout the day. With the benefit of the latest LED technology, Eterna provides totally homogeneous light distribution and natural light views for users.
Main aspect of the design is to emphasize the lighting and production quality as well as aesthetic value. Eterna is produced by implementing a special lighting technology and a special diffuser. The "Circadian Lighting System" is an innovative technology that provides the most comfortable and healthy light control in accordance with people's biorhythm, depending on the light intensity and color throughout the day. Different colors of LED sources are used to give clear sky, lunch, or evening sunset light effects with a hand remote control. This allows users to maintain balance in their hormonal activity during the day. For lighting quality, the latest LED technology and a special diffuser are used to achieve maximum light output with homogeneous light distribution and natural light views. This means that more light output is achieved with less energy consumption and material usage. LED sources are not only an energy-efficient and long-lasting technology but also harmless to human health and the environment, as they do not contain mercury or harmful waste when they distort or break. At that point, Eterna is an environmentally friendly, energy-efficient, and sustainable lighting fixture.
Eterna is a modular recessed lighting fixture consisting of a standard recessed body and a front diffuser. The dimension of the standard recessed body is 60 x 60 cm, made from 0.70 mm high-quality steel sheet painted with electrostatic powder paint. The diffuser is produced from 3mm acrylic or polycarbonate with vacuum technology. Its highest point is 5cm in the Z-axis. The lighting type is low power 21W-41W-46W LED.
Eterna has been recognized for its innovative and visionary design. It was awarded the Iron A' Design Award in the Lighting Products and Fixtures Design category in 2013. This award is given to well-designed, practical, and innovative creations that meet professional and industrial requirements. Eterna is respected for integrating industry best practices and competent technical characteristics, providing fulfillment and positive feelings, and contributing to a better world.
