VK Light Gate GU10 recessed wall light

An architectural detail blending into the wall

The Gate model is designed for recessed installation in drywall or masonry structures. The plaster body, which can be painted, allows for a perfectly clean look without visible frames or distracting details. After installation, only an elegant light opening remains visible, emphasizing the minimalist character of the interior.

Replaceable GU10 light source

Unlike integrated LED fixtures, Gate offers the option of using a GU10 bulb. This allows users to choose their own light output and color temperature, or simply replace the light source in the future without having to modify the lighting itself. This provides greater flexibility in lighting design and long-term operation.
