ELCO Koto Recessed Lighting: System Guide

ELCO Koto recessed lighting works differently from the sealed canless downlights that fill most recessed lighting aisles. Instead of a separate fixture for every size, trim style and application, Koto is built as a system of LED modules, housings or canless frames, and twist on trims that all work together. One module can serve a 2″ trimless downlight in a hallway and a 4″ adjustable pinhole over a kitchen island.

How to Light Artwork Like a PRO

Knowing how to light artwork properly can make a major difference in how paintings, photographs, and other pieces look in your home or gallery. LED lighting is a popular choice for art lighting because it offers excellent control, high-quality color rendering, and significantly less radiant heat than traditional incandescent or halogen sources.

Configuring the best lighting for your art is a matter of choosing the right fixtures, lamps, light levels, and angles to showcase the piece while minimizing unnecessary light exposure.
