Borderline

Product catalog summary
Overview: The BORDERLINE lighting collection, designed by A+A Cooren for Vertigo Bird, features a unique design that combines two shells to create a contrast between dark and light. The lamps are bound by velcro bands, eliminating the need for metallic joints and making maintenance easy. The collection includes ceiling, suspension, and floor versions, each offering direct and indirect light emission.
Design and Materials: The lamps are made from acrylic, available in black/white and white/white color combinations. The design emphasizes a striking contrast between the black ABS exterior and the opal white acrylic interior, which remains visually appealing even when the lamp is off.
Specifications: The BORDERLINE collection includes various models with different specifications:
  • Ceiling 444: Uses a fluorescent T5-R, 1x55W light source (not included), with a total flux of 2075 lm. It has an IP rating of IP20 and passes the Glowtest at 650°C.
  • Ceiling 616: Available in two versions, one with a single 60W fluorescent lamp and another with dual 60W and 55W lamps for extra illumination. The total flux ranges from 2075 lm to 3540 lm depending on the configuration.
  • Long and Long Suspension: Designed in 2012, these models use fluorescent T5, 2x28W light sources (not included) and are suitable for long walls in offices or shops.
  • Suspension 444S and 616S: Similar to the ceiling versions, these models offer suspension options with the same light source configurations.
  • Big Foot: A floor lamp version with a fluorescent T5-R, 1x60W light source (not included), offering both direct and indirect light emission.
Photometric Data: The lamps provide varying levels of illuminance, with maximum levels measured on the luminaire's axis. The data includes tolerances of 15% on calculated values.
Installation and Maintenance: The lamps are designed for easy installation and maintenance, with no manual or screwdriver needed for re-lamping. The velcro bands allow for quick and simple bulb changes.
