The ILEX Standard

Three Families. One Engineering Language.

Every ILEX luminaire begins as a specification-grade platform — then adapts. Select a standard model, or let our shop re-scale the diameter, drop, mounting plate and shade material around your ceiling plan.

Our Craft

A Heritage of Quality

ILEX fixtures are cut, welded, spun, finished and wired by the same team that drafts them. That single-roof workflow is why a lighting designer can call about a 9-foot sconce on Monday and review a shop drawing days later — not weeks.

Hand-applied metal patinas, real wood veneers and hand-sewn linen shades give each luminaire a material honesty that mass production cannot replicate.

Specifier Questions

Answers Before the Submittal

Can ILEX modify a standard fixture for my project scale?

Yes. Because every ILEX luminaire is hand-assembled in our own workshop, diameter, drop length, stem configuration, shade material and finish can be re-engineered around your ceiling height, mounting condition and lighting design intent — from a 9-foot lobby sconce to a 24-inch globe pendant.

Which finishes are available for specification?

Specifiers can select from ILEX standard metal finishes, natural wood finishes and fabric or linen shade finishes. Physical samples and finish plates are available through your regional representative for design-team review and submittal packages.

Are ILEX fixtures suitable for commercial and hospitality codes?

ILEX luminaires are built to specification-grade standards for hotels, restaurants, corporate lobbies and multifamily amenity spaces, including ADA-compliant wall sconce profiles, damp-location constructions and integrated LED or lamped sources with dimming compatibility.

How do design teams start a custom lighting project with ILEX?

Share your drawings, elevations or reference imagery with your ILEX regional representative. Our engineering team returns a shop-drawing concept with dimensions, materials, finish options and photometric direction before fabrication begins.
