Zero is a track light designed for magnetic track systems. The circular form of Zero refers to the symbol of zero, representing both beginning and infinity. A magnetic mounting system allows fast installation on the upper or the lower side of a track, for ceiling, wall or pendant use. A rotation mechanism adjusts the direction of the light beam. LEDs with a colour temperature of 3000 K and a matte white diffuser give comfortable, glare free light across a wide 180 degree beam angle. The module uses 10 W and gives 550 lumens.

- Production Technology
- The development project aimed to engineer a universal modular lighting fixture for magnetic track systems, prioritizing ergonomic installation procedures and innovative structural design distinct from conventional track lighting solutions. Engineering specifications emphasized cost-efficient production with minimal moulding requirements, affordable manufacturing processes, and an integrated rotation mechanism enabling precise beam direction adjustment for targeted illumination in residential applications.
- Design Challenge
- During the conceptual development phase, the designer explored numerous geometric forms, ultimately selecting the fundamental circular shape due to its symbolic association with the sun as a primary light source. Despite the prevalence of circular elements in existing lighting designs, the designer successfully differentiated the product by integrating functional mounting and rotation components, resulting in an innovative ring configuration with a deliberate gap.
- Project Duration
- The project started in January 2025 in Moscow and finished in September 2025 in Moscow, and was exhibited in Interlight in October 2025.
- Operation Flow
- The luminaire is designed for integration with magnetic track systems, enabling both upper and under-track mounting configurations. Featuring a rotatable mechanism, it allows precise adjustment of light direction to meet specific illumination requirements. This versatile lighting solution is suitable for residential and commercial applications, providing both accent lighting and soft, diffused ambient illumination through its frosted diffuser element.
- Research
- Prior to the luminaire design initiation, an extensive market analysis of competitors and analogues in the track lighting sector was conducted. The research included comprehensive evaluation of various installation methods’ advantages and disadvantages. A detailed cost analysis of mould production processes was performed to ensure economic feasibility. The development phase concluded with testing of 3D-printed prototypes to validate design concepts and functionality.
- Inspiration
- The ZERO collection merges design and engineering excellence in track lighting. Its circular shape, inspired by zero, symbolizes both the beginning and infinity. This concept reflects the historical significance of zero, first used around 300 BC. Highly versatile, the fixtures integrate seamlessly into track systems for pendant, ceiling, or wall installations. Their standout feature is easy installation — mounting takes seconds on any track side.
