The TF42 is a trimless flush mounted wall light with a rectilinear opening. Clean flowing lines define the edge of the opening. Designed for use as a feature light, the subtly curved rear wall of the recess picks up the light evenly along the length of the fitting. When installed, the bond between luminaire and wall/ceiling is completely trimless and seamless and not prone to hair line cracking along the installation lines. This is achieved by using a material with a rate of expansion and contraction matching that of gypsum plaster. This allows for an invisible interface between the fitting and ceiling surface, so the end result looks as though its shape has been cast directly into the wall/ceiling surface rather than added retrospectively. The definition and quality of finish on these fittings is unparalleled in any other material and is far superior to metal fittings. They are also suitable for painting with standard emulsion paint. This fitting is hand crafted using a modern plaster composite material, designed to be more durable and tolerant to changes in heat and moisture content, whilst simultaneously providing a superior finish. After the plaster is poured and cured in rubber moulds, each fitting is then painstakingly hand finished to our exacting standards. Each exterior surface is left perfectly smooth, with all edges clean and crisp. Tornado has been manufacturing hand-crafted luminaires since 1985 and we are able to provide replacements for every design we have every released. We are committed to promoting high-tech and energy efficient light sources, as well as sustainable and ethical manufacturing processes.
