Beam and Spread Visualizer
See how a fixture's distance and beam angle light a wall, and how many fixtures a wall needs.

Questions
About the beam and spread visualizer
Is this exactly how a wall will look?
It is a simple geometry model. Real fixtures have soft edges and walls reflect light differently, so we test on site.
What is grazing?
Grazing puts the fixture very close to the wall so light rakes across the texture.
Why do wide beams need fewer fixtures?
A wider beam covers more wall per fixture but gives a flatter, softer look.
