Can custom office lighting be designed around difficult ceiling conditions?

Yes. In fact, custom fabrication is the right approach when ceiling conditions are complex. Canopy design, suspension logic, and service access, among others, all need to be resolved around the actual site conditions before fabrication begins.

How do you approach glare control for open-plan workstation environments?

In open-plan offices, glare is a primary manufacturing variable. We get light source selection, optic specification, and output right in fabrication, so there are no field adjustments once it's installed.

Can Karice support custom workspace lighting across multiple office zones?

es. We can support lighting across all zones of a corporate office project. We maintain design consistency where needed, while resolving the specific requirements of each zone independently.

Can Karice fabricate one-off statement fixtures for office environments?

Yes. We fabricate one-off custom fixtures for corporate and commercial office environments. Whether you need a large ring chandelier, faceted geometric pendant, clustered stairwell composition, or continuous linear form — we can build it.

Can Karice produce repeatable custom fixtures for multi-floor office projects?

Yes. We support repeatable custom lighting where the same fixture needs to carry across multiple floors, rooms, or locations. Consistency is resolved through documented drawings, material specifications, finish control, and quality checks at every production stage.

Is Karice an office lighting company?

Karice is a custom lighting manufacturer that supports corporate office lighting projects. We are not a retail lighting company or catalogue-only supplier. We fabricate custom lighting for commercial office environments when standard fixtures cannot meet your design, technical, or architectural requirements.

Does Karice work directly with electrical contractors and project managers, or only with designers and architects?

Both. Karice works with designers and architects on fixture design and specification, and directly with electrical contractors and project managers on installation coordination, mounting details, and site conditions.

Can Karice support LEED or sustainability-aligned office projects?

Yes. Karice can support office projects pursuing LEED certification or sustainability targets. Fixture specification, material selection, and light source decisions can be aligned to project requirements. We recommend raising sustainability goals early so they can be factored into the manufacturing process from the start.

When is the right time to engage Karice on an office lighting project?

Early is better, but we can enter at different stages. The earlier we're involved, the more we can contribute to resolving scale, ceiling conditions, and buildability before the design is finalized.

Octave

Octave 8-Lamp Chandelier

We developed Octave as the 8-lamp version of our Harmony chandelier, continuing its mid-century design. Designed by Yoko Ishihara and Maurice Dery, the original lighting concept was created with Wilson Ishihara Design for Long Meadow Ranch in Philo, California, then engineered and brought to life by our team.

Eight tilting shades on brass swivels

We built this lamp chandelier with eight tilting shades on genuine brass swivels, so the light can articulate to give varying angles of illumination. Each shade uses an E26 medium-base 4.5W LED lamp. It can be finished in black or white with genuine brass accents.

Configured to your specification

This custom chandelier can be specified at 2700K or 3000K, with phase, 0-10V, ELV, or DALI dimming and standard, high-output, or custom lumen packages where applicable.

Standard finishes include black, white, silver, and bronze look, with custom finishes on request. Fixture and canopy colour options also include Sun Gold, with various standard and custom canopy configurations available by configuration.
