The WeaveLight System by Lucretia Lighting is a 48V conductive fabric track lighting solution that carries power through a slim textile tape. Compatible LED spotlights, linear lights and decorative fittings simply clip onto the tape, allowing you to place light exactly where it is needed. Ideal for residential and commercial projects, WeaveLight offers a flexible, ultra-low-profile alternative to traditional track lighting.
FAQs
A 48V low voltage lighting system uses a power supply to convert mains electricity to DC48V before distributing power to compatible LED luminaires.
These systems are increasingly used in architectural lighting because multiple types of luminaires can be integrated into one low-voltage platform.
Lucretia's WeaveLight System takes a different approach to conventional rigid 48V track systems. Instead of using a traditional aluminium track, it uses a flexible conductive fabric belt to carry DC48V power and support compatible lighting modules.
A 48V lighting system can provide greater flexibility when designing modular architectural lighting.
Different compatible luminaires can share the same low-voltage infrastructure, allowing spotlights, floodlights, linear lights and pendant lights to work together as part of one coordinated system.
Compared with lower-voltage systems, 48V can also deliver the same electrical power at a lower current, which can be beneficial when designing larger or more complex lighting configurations.
The power supply, connected load and system layout must always be correctly calculated for the individual project.
A flexible low voltage lighting system uses a flexible electrical infrastructure rather than relying entirely on conventional rigid lighting tracks or individual fixed lighting points.
Lucretia's WeaveLight System uses a flexible DC48V conductive fabric belt that can become a visible part of the interior design.
The belt can form vertical, horizontal, suspended and geometric compositions, allowing the lighting system itself to contribute to the architecture of the space.
This makes flexible lighting particularly interesting for contemporary residential, retail, hospitality and commercial interiors.
Conductive fabric lighting integrates electrical conductors into a flexible textile structure.
A compatible power supply converts mains electricity to DC48V, which is then distributed through the conductive fabric. Purpose-designed lighting modules connect to the system and receive low-voltage power through the conductive material.
This allows the electrical infrastructure to be significantly different from conventional rigid track lighting.
With the Lucretia WeaveLight System, the conductive belt is intentionally visible and becomes part of the overall lighting composition rather than simply being hidden above the ceiling.
Both can operate as modular low-voltage architectural lighting systems, but their physical construction is different.
Magnetic track lighting normally uses a rigid aluminium track containing electrical conductors. Compatible spotlights, linear lights, pendants and other modules are attached to this track.
The WeaveLight 48V flexible lighting system uses a conductive fabric belt instead of a conventional rigid track.
This gives designers a different visual language and greater freedom to create suspended, vertical and geometric compositions using the conductive belt itself as part of the design.
Lucretia offers both systems, allowing the appropriate solution to be selected according to the architecture and lighting concept.
Yes, provided all luminaires are specifically designed to be compatible with the same system.
The Lucretia WeaveLight System can combine different compatible lighting modules, including spotlights, floodlights, linear lights and decorative pendant lights.
This means one system can perform several lighting functions.
For example, directional spotlights can highlight artwork or architectural features, broader lights can provide general illumination, and pendant modules can create decorative lighting above dining tables, counters or seating areas.
This allows ambient, accent and decorative lighting to be integrated into one coordinated system.
Yes. Flexibility is one of the main reasons to use this type of architectural lighting system.
Instead of being restricted to a conventional straight aluminium track, the conductive fabric can form part of a customised lighting composition.
Depending on the project, the system can be developed into straight, suspended, vertical or geometric arrangements, with compatible luminaires positioned according to the lighting requirements.
For larger projects, the layout can be developed from architectural drawings, reflected ceiling plans or interior renders so that the lighting system responds directly to the architecture.
48V architectural lighting systems can be used across a wide range of residential and commercial interiors.
Applications include:
- Living rooms
- Dining areas
- Kitchen islands
- Bedrooms
- Luxury residences
- Retail stores and showrooms
- Restaurants and cafés
- Hotels and hospitality spaces
- Galleries and exhibition spaces
- Commercial interiors
Flexible systems such as WeaveLight are particularly suitable when the lighting infrastructure is intended to become a visible design element rather than simply disappearing into the ceiling.
Yes. 48V low voltage lighting systems are widely used in contemporary architectural lighting, with many systems designed around compact infrastructure and modular luminaires.
For minimalist interiors, the advantage is not simply the operating voltage. The system can reduce the visual impact of conventional lighting hardware while allowing different lighting functions to be integrated into a coordinated design.
WeaveLight takes this concept further by replacing the conventional rigid track with a slim conductive fabric belt, creating a softer and more expressive architectural element.
Lucretia offers 48V low voltage architectural lighting systems in Australia, including the WeaveLight System for residential, retail, hospitality and commercial projects.
WeaveLight combines a flexible DC48V conductive fabric belt with compatible spotlights, floodlights, linear lights and decorative pendant modules, providing an alternative to conventional rigid track lighting.
For architectural projects, Lucretia can assist with system configuration, lighting layouts, luminaire selection, power requirements and complete lighting design based on floor plans, reflected ceiling plans, architectural drawings or interior renders.
