On the project I led the Industrial Design team supported by fellow designer Zack Zlevor, this project was a unique process for ETC. We began with research and some stealthy interviewing of our client before the meetings had even begun. Giving them a tour of our facilities and seeing their reactions to current product offerings gave us insights into what they were looking for. We were then able to 'begin' the meeting with a barebones sketch in the right direction of what the wanted. As a result of our ability to condense and communicate requirements to a wide variety of disciplines, I and my team were able to make the industrial design team's presence a reguirement by the client at all proceedings there after.

We held a leadership position on the project from that initial 'napkin sketch' to prototypes in a series of rapid revisions that I flew over to london to present and refine, all the way to production.

This project served as a key turning point in how ETC viewed and valued Industrial Design.

Navis luminaires deliver ease of installation, hassle-free maintenance, in-field customization, and beautiful light all in a sleek fixture design.


The design of the Navis 100 luminaire covers every detail for seamless installation. Three wind-down clamps cater to ceiling thickness from 0.5 to 20 mm. Make any adjustments you need with a 30-degree tilt that doesn't break the ceiling plane, a 360-degree rotation to focus light any way, and a tool-operated pan/tilt lock. Simply pop the magnetic trim plate back on the luminaire once your installation is complete for a sleek finish.
