The Corduroy and Corduroy II luminaires by FOSFENS share a common ambition: to deliver exceptional lighting capable of revealing materials, structuring volumes, and enhancing architectural spaces.
While they share the same aesthetic signature and manufacturing excellence, the Corduroy II stands as a more powerful and technically advanced evolution of the original model.
The Corduroy delivers 1770 lumens for 19.5 watts, offering a precise and perfectly balanced light output.
The Corduroy II reaches a new level with 2250 lumens for 25.3 watts, providing greater intensity, particularly suited to larger spaces or demanding architectural projects.
This increase in power is achieved without compromising visual comfort, which remains at the core of the FOSFENS philosophy.
The Corduroy features a mechanical zoom inspired by photographic lenses, adjustable from 25° to 75°, with an option down to 12.5°.
The Corduroy II goes further with a X5 optical zoom ranging from 15° to 75%, and an optional X10 configuration reaching as narrow as 7.5°.
This ability to refine the beam with such precision allows for highly controlled lighting, ideal for highlighting artworks, textures, or architectural details.
Both models deliver outstanding light quality, with perfect stability, no flicker, and exceptional color rendering (CRI 98, high R9).
The Corduroy II enhances this performance even further, offering superior beam consistency and refined light control, meeting the highest standards required in professional and museum-grade environments.
Both luminaires integrate advanced control systems, including precise analog dimming, Bluetooth MESH connectivity, and DALI compatibility.
However, the Corduroy II is clearly oriented toward more demanding applications. It is designed for architects, lighting designers, and professionals seeking maximum precision and adaptability.
Corduroy and Corduroy II are manufactured according to the same uncompromising standards. Each piece is machined using five-axis CNC technology and finished by hand, using noble materials such as aluminum, titanium, copper, or brass.
The high-precision optical glass lens ensures perfectly controlled light distribution, while aerospace-grade surface treatments guarantee long-term durability.
The Corduroy stands out for its balance and versatility, making it ideal for high-end residential interiors where lighting must remain precise yet discreet.
The Corduroy II represents a more advanced interpretation, designed for environments where light becomes a tool of expertise, capable of revealing volumes, materials, and artworks with absolute precision.
Beyond technical specifications, the distinction between the two models lies in their purpose.
The Corduroy offers a refined and controlled approach to architectural lighting.
The Corduroy II represents its ultimate evolution, designed for those who demand uncompromising performance and precision.
