Case Study: How Suspended Linear Fixtures Transformed a Modern Coworking Space

The Solution: Suspended Linear LED Fixtures Built for Modern Offices

After reviewing the layout, ceiling heights, and photometric goals, Alex recommended suspended linear LED fixtures as the ideal solution. These fixtures are a natural fit for coworking and office environments where balanced light distribution and visual comfort are essential.

Suspended linear lighting offers a clean, architectural appearance while delivering uniform light across work surfaces. For SONO 50, this meant fixtures that could support productivity without overpowering the space or clashing with its contemporary design.

Warehouse Lighting worked closely with the client to ensure the selected fixtures provided the right output, color temperature, and mounting configuration for each area. The result was a lighting plan that felt intentional, not over-engineered.

Design & Implementation

The design approach focused on simplicity, flexibility, and performance. Suspended linear fixtures were integrated throughout the coworking areas to create visual continuity while accommodating different functional needs.

By leveraging selectable wattage and CCT options, the fixtures could be tuned to deliver the right balance of brightness and warmth across the space. Independent up/down light control allowed the team to prioritize downlight for task-focused areas while introducing uplight where added ambient brightness enhanced the room's feel.

Installation was streamlined thanks to the included power-feed cable and canopy, and the ability to choose between surface-mounted or suspended configurations gave the project team flexibility to work with existing ceiling conditions.

The Results: Better Light, Better Experience

The lighting upgrade made an immediate impact. Members and staff noticed clearer visibility, reduced glare, and a more cohesive architectural look throughout the facility. The new suspended linear fixtures helped define the space visually while supporting comfort and focus across long workdays.

From an operational standpoint, the switch from fluorescent to LED improved overall energy performance and significantly reduced ongoing maintenance needs. With a 50,000-hour lifespan plus a 5-year warranty, the client gained confidence that the lighting system would support the space well into the future.
