Cornices for Indirect LED Lighting: Create a Unique Ambiance
Light changes everything. With cornices for indirect lighting. Orac Decor, transform a mundane room into a warm and architectural space. Designed to accommodate. LED strips, These profiles diffuse a soft light towards the ceiling (to enlarge the room) or towards the floor, without glare and without seeing the light source.
Why opt for indirect lighting ?
It is the charming asset of modern decoration:
- ✨ Atmosphere: Create a "Lounge" and soothing atmosphere by eliminating harsh shadows.
- ? ? Volume: By lighting up the ceiling (uplighting), the room immediately appears taller and more spacious.
- ? ? Comfort: The light source (the LED) is hidden. You benefit from the light without ever being dazzled.
Up or down ?
Most of our profiles (such as C380 or C901) are reversible:
- Up (Ceiling): Ideal for general lighting and to give a sense of spaciousness.
- Down (Wall/Floor): Ideal for a bedroom, a hallway, or to highlight the texture of a wall (stone, wallpaper).
Do shelves withstand the heat from LED lights ?
Yes, absolutely. Our cornices are made in Purotouch®, a high-density stable material that does not deform with the moderate heat of standard LED ribbons (SMD). They even act as a lightweight heat sink.
How to install the system ?
It's very simple:
- Paint the cornice (the inside should be painted to reflect the light well).
- Stick the cornice to the wall with glue. DecoFix Pro.
- Once dry, simply stick your adhesive LED strip inside the cornice, in the designated location.
Where to hide the electrical transformer ?
For small models, the transformer must be moved (in a false ceiling, a junction box, or a piece of furniture). For large cornices (such as C990 or C383), there is often enough hollow space behind the molding to slide in a flat transformer ("slim").
Is the LED strip provided ?
No. We sell Orac Decor architectural profiles. LED strips, transformers, and dimmers must be purchased separately, allowing you to choose the exact power and light color (Warm white, cool white, or RGB) that you desire.
