Lighting solutions that fit your needs
Lighting Distribution
Wavelength creates a market for your concept. Our total market solution works with you, your architect, lighting designer, and whomever else is on your team to be sure your lighting maintains the fidelity of your vision and is optimized for cost and lead-time.
Retrofit Projects
Wavelength will provide a retrofit that matches the current aesthetic of your space with new LED equipment—or if you’d like the space brighter, darker, or warmer in color, we can help you make those changes as well.
ControlS Projects
Wavelength works with modern lighting controls brands that benefit you and your environment, increasing the efficiency of your lighting and improving the look of the space. We specify, layout, and install controls in both retrofit projects and new construction.
The Wavelength Process
1. REview lighting Needs
Wavelength completes an audit and consultation at no cost to you. We visit your space or review your plans to outline a process that fits your needs and timeline.
2. Total Market Supply
Wavelength will deliver the lighting package that makes the most sense based on cost and lead-time.
3. REjoice
All LED packages that come in on time cost roughly 30% less than a package bid out through conventional channels that are made to limit the market.
Who we work with
Wavelength works with tenants who have a remaining lease term of longer than 12 months in order for them to receive payback on their upgrades. Wavelength also works with building owners interested in reducing the long-term cost of ownership of their spaces.
We work with CEOs, CFOs, GMs, Facilities Managers, Building Engineers, Procurement, Architects, Contractors, and others.
Projects
Barclays Center is the premier stadium in Brooklyn, New York and became an immediate architectural icon when it opened in 2012. Like most spaces built before 2014, LEDs were not included in the original lighting plan. When Barclays evaluated Wavelength against competitors, they found that we were able to address a wider variety of lighting applications and offer a lower total installed cost than anyone in the marketplace. Because the existing fixtures and ballasts were relatively new, Wavelength provided a lamp-for-lamp solution that did not require installing new fixtures and electronics. By completing this project, Barclays has increased light levels throughout the facility, dramatically reduced the operational burden of their lighting, and accomplished a major sustainability initiative.
Horizon Media helps the world's largest advertisers navigate the new world of media engagement. Their office is one of the most beautiful and dynamic spaces in New York. The lighting system they have is diverse for a variety of applications—linear pendant uplights in open office areas, recessed downlighting in conference rooms, and decorative pendants throughout social spaces. Wavelength was able to match and improve the lighting in all of their fixtures and tie the aesthetic to the firm’s newly developed offices.
McDermott Will & Emery is an international law firm with offices in Midtown Manhattan. They specialize in transactional and regulatory law with recognized strength in tax, private equity, mergers and acquisitions, health care, and high-stakes litigation. Realizing the savings that LED lighting can provide, their facilities team decided to update their class A office with a lamp replacement, retaining the ballasts and fixtures already in the space and reducing costs. Utilizing multiple LED applications, Wavelength was able to achieve the modern clarity and brightness desired.
New York Media is the award-winning multimedia company behind its eponymous New York magazine and viral content machines Vulture and The Cut. And their office is as diverse as the work they produce. Employees have varied roles, each hoping to maintain the unique feel of their realm of the office. Whether it’s HR, photography, copy editing, or creative, each department has its own lighting needs. Wavelength collaborated with the facilities team to customize each area in a way that met each requirement.
Children’s Museum of Art is a nonprofit arts facility that brings hands-on art programming to children throughout New York City. This unique space has varying ceiling heights which require different applications and modes of lighting. Wavelength was able to work with the museum to achieve a lighting system that highlights its programming and provides the best experience for visitors. In the museum setting, where light is a key part of the viewer’s adventure and the artist’s intention, Wavelength was able to show how, when done right, there is no better looking light than LED.
Toby’s Estate Coffee is a small batch roaster located in Brooklyn, New York with an emphasis on quality and sustainability—ideas that we at Wavelength can get behind. Toby’s also happens to be one of our favorite third-wave coffee roasters and we couldn’t go anywhere else when there’s one close by—in fact, we wouldn’t. Wavelength was able to match the aesthetic and desired mood of the fresh, Williamsburg warehouse space. Anyone can stop by to grab a coffee and check out our work. While you’re there, take a glance up and daydream, just a little, about the joy of living in an age when LED lighting has truly arrived.
