Shaping Light Onto Art for Over 38 Years
A contemporary oil painting, abstract in its rendering and suggesting the flow of a waterfall, becomes a focal point in any space when properly illuminated. At Adaptive Design Group, we understand that lighting art is about more than simply shining a light—it’s about creating a presentation that highlights the work’s depth, color, and emotional impact.
For over 38 years, Adaptive Design Group has been shaping light to showcase collections, working with collectors, architects, and designers to ensure every piece is seen at its best. A key tool in this pursuit is the Merlin Light Framing Projector, a precision fixture designed to highlight art without creating glare, overspill, or harsh shadows. These projectors, combined with careful planning and expert placement, allow each painting to occupy its own space while contributing to the harmony of the room.
Adaptive Design Group’s approach goes beyond simply lighting artwork. Each project integrates lighting design, dimming control design, and integration planning to ensure that the art is complemented by its environment. Every brushstroke, texture, and subtle hue is revealed in a way that feels intentional, refined, and fully immersive.
With Adaptive Design Group, light becomes part of the narrative of the space—enhancing the viewer’s experience while preserving the integrity of the collection. Precision, artistry, and technology converge to transform a simple display into a lasting impression.
Because art deserves more than light—it deserves to be fully revealed.
Light is not a simple utility — it is an extension of the artwork itself. Properly designed, it draws the viewer in, enhances form, and preserves the integrity of the collection. Improperly done, it distracts, flattens, or diminishes. That is why discerning collectors and institutions turn to Merlin Lights for their most important pieces.
