Elliptipar created the iconic asymmetric luminaire based on the need to produce an even wash of light across an architectural plane, creating a luminous surface from a minimal setback.

The innovative concept behind the elliptipar product line, based on the design of one ellipse and two parabolas, was invented by Sy Shemitz – a pioneer in asymmetric lighting – in 1965. Its unique reflector has lit, in part, some of the country’s most prestigious structures, such as Grand Central Terminal and the White House.

By expertly distributing light where it is truly needed, elliptipar is an ideal solution for schools, libraries, monuments, healthcare facilities, houses of worship, landmarks, exteriors, museums and athletic facilities.
