Great things come in small packages: introducing Nub Flush, one of the smallest downlights on the market. This tiny yet powerful luminaire blends seamlessly into architectural spaces, acting as a near-invisible chameleon while delivering exceptional visual comfort. With optics developed by Bartenbach, Nub Flush features a precise spot beam, sustainable materials, and an efficient, compact heatsink, expanding the versatility of the Nub family.
Designed for those seeking the perfect balance between integration and performance, Nub Flush takes minimalism to the next level. Its compact form factor disappears into the ceiling, ensuring that architecture remains the focal point while providing high-quality illumination where needed. Advanced optical technology controls glare and enhances light distribution, ensuring superior comfort without compromising efficiency.
A key innovation in Nub Flush is its seamless integration. Instead of traditional plasterboard, it incorporates Fermacell, a high-performance, eco-friendly material offering enhanced acoustic insulation and fire resistance. This contributes to sustainable building practices while maintaining high durability. The product can also be integrated into other ceiling materials, such as wood, metal, or marble, with an opening of just 8mm for light emission.
Its IP65 rating ensures this minimalist downlight can be seamlessly used indoors, outdoors, and in wet areas, providing a cohesive lighting solution across diverse architectural spaces.
Another groundbreaking feature is its ultra-compact heatsink. With a diameter of just 50mm and a thickness of less than 20mm, this advanced thermal management system allows integration into even the thinnest ceilings or furniture elements. This opens new possibilities for constrained architectural spaces where traditional downlights are too bulky. Despite its small size, the heatsink efficiently dissipates heat, ensuring optimal performance and LED longevity.
This combination of state-of-the-art optics, innovative thermal management, and sustainable materials results in a lighting solution that is both advanced and discreet. Whether in residential, hospitality, or commercial environments, Nub Flush exemplifies how technology can seamlessly integrate into design-driven spaces. Its precise spot beam makes it particularly effective for highlighting architectural details, artworks, or retail displays.
Nub Flush is more than just a downlight; it is a statement of precision, efficiency, and responsibility. By prioritizing visual comfort and sustainability, it redefines recessed lighting in contemporary interiors. At a time when architects and lighting designers seek solutions that enhance spaces without overwhelming them, Nub Flush proves that the smallest elements can have the greatest impact.
With its near-invisible presence, cutting-edge Bartenbach optics, advanced thermal management, and eco-conscious material choices, Nub Flush is a true innovation in architectural lighting. Its introduction represents a commitment to both aesthetic excellence and responsible design, making it a standout contender in the Best Architectural Lighting Product – Interior Innovation category at the DARC Awards.
