One of the most common frustrations in architectural lighting is spending time and money on downlights that, once installed, look exactly like downlights — visible trims, mismatched finishes, and a ceiling that draws the eye for all the wrong reasons. When the goal is a seamless, uninterrupted surface, standard fittings rarely deliver.
Trimless plaster downlights solve this by becoming part of the ceiling itself. The plaster body can be skimmed, plastered over, and painted to match the surrounding surface, so the fitting effectively disappears — leaving only the light. CRI, or Colour Rendering Index, is the measure of how accurately a light source reveals the true colours of surfaces and materials. A CRI of 92 is considered high-fidelity, meaning what you see under this light is close to what you would see in natural daylight.
The Brick In The Wall Pixo Recessed Downlight is a single-lamp recessed ceiling fitting from the Pixo range, constructed from plaster and ceramic. It is rated IP20, making it suitable for dry interior spaces. The internal lamp holder is mounted on a pivot mechanism, allowing the beam to be directed at an angle — useful for accent lighting, art illumination, or washing architectural surfaces. With a CRI of 92, it renders materials, finishes, and colours with a high degree of accuracy.
The Pixo's defining characteristic is its geometry: a square outer trim frames a circular aperture, creating a considered minimalist detail for the rare moments the fitting is visible pre-decoration. Once plastered and painted, it integrates flush with the ceiling plane for a clean, uninterrupted look. No finish variants are listed; the plaster body is finished on site to suit the project.
The Pixo is rated IP20 and is intended for dry interior environments only — it is not suitable for bathrooms or outdoor use. It is designed to house a single 50W light source. Lamp type, driver requirements, and whether a transformer or driver is included should be confirmed at the specification stage, as these details are not listed in the product data. Adjustability of the internal pivot allows directional control post-installation, which should be factored into ceiling depth and access planning.
At Lightsource Mallorca, we work through the specification detail so you do not have to unravel it on site. The Pixo is the kind of fitting that rewards careful planning — confirming lamp type, driver compatibility, and ceiling build-up before installation avoids costly rework. We can help coordinate that process, from technical specification through to project delivery, so the result matches the intention.
