Xicato’s XFL Flexible Linear LED Side Emitting features 120 LEDs per meter to produce 659 lumens of side illumination (200 lumens/ft.) with a 95 CRI and choice of three CCTs (2700K, 3000K, 3500K).

Another article in Thomas Schielke’s “Light Matters” series at ARCHDAILY.com, “Creating Walls with Light” examines two early approaches to using light to define walls and make a big impact on architecture. Using examples, he presents uniform wall washing and grazing, sometimes with concealed lighting equipment to enhance the effect.
