This recessed ground light fixture is a Revit family featuring a clean, circular design suitable for exterior or interior floor integration. This luminaire features a compact, circular recessed housing designed for flush mounting into floors or ground surfaces. The unit comprises a robust metal outer ring and a central glass lens, engineered to provide directional illumination. Its low-profile construction ensures minimal visual obstruction while maintaining a sleek, modern aesthetic. The Revit family includes a spherical light source proxy, clearly indicating the intended photometric distribution and reach for lighting calculations. The geometry is straightforward, prioritising functional integration over decorative complexity, making it an efficient component for architectural lighting schemes that require precise, unobtrusive ground-level illumination.
The download is a 328 KB file containing a Revit family (.rfa). Load it into a project from the Insert tab with Load Family, then place it like any other component of its category; it schedules and tags with the rest of your model.
In Revit, this family is designed for face-based hosting, allowing for seamless placement into floor slabs or site terrain models. Users can adjust the photometric parameters and light intensity directly within the properties palette to match specific project requirements. The family includes standard connectors for integration into electrical circuits, ensuring accurate scheduling and load analysis within the BIM model. It is best practice to verify the host surface thickness to avoid geometry clipping during the placement process.
