Linear Lighting Layout Patterns For Commercial Spaces February 19, 2026 – Posted in: Office Lighting
Grid, Perimeter, Cove — three patterns that shape how a space feels
These layouts aren’t just aesthetics—they’re a repeatable system for comfort, wayfinding, and brand presence. Use the diagrams below to choose a pattern that fits the architecture, ceiling conditions, and the experience you want customers to remember.
Grid pattern
A modular layout that scales cleanly as the footprint grows. Ideal when you need predictable brightness and a “designed” ceiling without relying on architectural features.
Perimeter pattern
A wall-focused layout that makes rooms feel larger and brighter. Great when vertical surfaces matter—product walls, branding, art, or signage.
Cove pattern
Concealed linear sources create an architectural glow. When executed well, it reads premium, reduces perceived glare, and supports calm, high-comfort environments.
