Masco : Use of Trend-Forward Materials and Finishes Create Unique Lighting Effects in Introduction from elan

February 13, 2019

INDEPENDENCE, OHIO (February 19, 2019) - Textured, geometric designs with minimalist style make a striking statement and allow consumers to showcase both art and light in the home. The new introductions from élan®, a Kichler Lighting brand, highlight these designs with LED lighting fixtures and use of mixed, trend-forward materials and finishes.

'Our newest introduction of fixtures combines a contemporary feel with natural elements, all currently trending up in the home décor industry,' said Chrissy Sobonya, élan product manager, Kichler Lighting. 'New Champagne Gold finishes and incorporating a mix of materials such as shagreen creates a texture that elevates design and inspiration for homeowners.'

The new 2019 LED élan collections include:

Inspired by birds in flight, the Avedu™ collection takes imagination-and design-in new directions. Each light appears to float in place, for an ethereal effect that captures attention. Marble inlays with Chrome accents elevate the look into a luxurious statement piece. Avedu is adjustable to the consumers' preferred height and is available as either a one- or three-light linear pendant or sconce.

Acrobatic performers have a grace and precision that captures the imagination. An art form in itself, Bonham draws inspiration from these gravity-defying magicians. Each ring adjusts up or down, helping to create a unique sculpture all your own. Available in Polished Chrome and Champagne Gold finishes, this modern glam line includes a three- and six-light ring pendant.

Jewelry makes the outfit. The Delsey™ collection makes the space, with a goldsmith-inspired profile that's as dramatic as one's favorite pair of earrings. Slim lines hold the sleek LED light, creating each on-trend oval shape. The Champagne Gold or Polished Nickel finish is the final touch, adding elegance and glamour. The Delsey collection features a single pendant and three- or five-light linear pendants.

In the 1950s, lighting truly became part of a home's décor. Space age and dynamic shapes took center stage. With Kizette™'s delicate profile, the past comes to light. Clean, sleek lines create a sculpture while the integrated LED lighting modernizes the look. This contemporary interpretation is featured in Brushed Nickel or Champagne Gold finishes and is available as a six-light, one-tier and nine-light, two-tier chandelier.

Shagreen is experiencing a renaissance in home décor, and the leather-like material's textured surface delivers unique opportunities in the hands of designers. Marrying mid-century modern, sputnik shapes with faux shagreen-wrapped and Polished Nickel glass shades, the Vey collection adds polish, texture and depth to living spaces. Vey features a nine-light, three-tier and fifteen-light, five-tier chandelier.

Illuminate the most important tasks of the day with style. The Ryame™ collection of mirrors feature a sleek LED framework surrounding a reflective surface-creating a floating shadowbox that's both art and light.

All élan products come with a three-year limited warranty on all LED products. Products under the élan brand include ceiling lights, chandeliers, LEDs, mini-pendants, pendants, sconces and vanity lights.
