A New Era of Optical Framing: The Advancement of Merlin Light® Technology
Welcome to A New Era of Optical Framing. Adaptive Design Group is pleased to highlight a major advancement in one of the trusted products we regularly specify for our clients: the Merlin Light® Fine Art Optical Framing Projector line. We continue to promote it as a preferred solution because of its reliability, performance, and alignment with our design standards. The latest update features Dimmable High-Performance Color-Correct LED technology, engineered for both new construction and retrofit applications in today’s finest residential environments.
For more than fifty years, Merlin Lights® has been trusted by architects, interior designers, and custom home builders for its unparalleled ability to project, sculpt, and frame light with precision. This evolution introduces the refined LED and reflector system required for true gallery-grade performance—now further optimized for luxury residential, art galleries, hospitality, and commercial applications.
Why Merlin Light® Remains the Gold Standard in Art Illumination
As professional Lighting Designers, we know that art illumination is one of the most nuanced challenges in the built environment. The internal dialogue is constant: Track lights, wall wash, pin spots, etc. Our discipline teaches us that the true stars of a space are the art, the architecture, and the interiors—allowing the lighting to recede with intention, except when it appears as a curated decorative fixture.
That is why our team continues to rely on the magic of the Merlin Light®.
Hidden. Color-correcting. Dimmable. And remarkably precise—casting even, controlled light that stays perfectly within the edges of the canvas. No spill light. No distractions. Just a dramatic presentation of the artist’s work, exactly as intended.
At its core, the Merlin Light® is more than a fixture—it becomes an extension of the artwork itself, enhancing the emotional experience as people gather to appreciate the illuminated piece. It is the quiet, invisible partner that lets the art tell the story.
