LED lighting manufacturer USAI Lighting has expanded its LittleOnes collection of tiny but mighty recessed fixtures with LittleOnes Micro Doubles — two miniature downlights that double the luminosity of the LittleOnes form factor.
Designed with diminutive 1.25-inch apertures and delivering up to 1600 lumens, the lighting pair packs a punch while offering the brand’s signature glare control technology and barely-there design appearance. Compared to traditional light fixtures, LittleOnes Micro Doubles are a small-scale solution with powerful light quality for commercial and residential applications.

“The original LittleOnes collection took recessed lighting to a new scale, shrinking fixtures to one-inch while maximizing illumination, said Bonnie Littman, President and CEO of USAI Lighting. “Now Doubles have twice the impact, creating diverse lighting experiences and providing powerful general illumination for homes, art galleries, office spaces, hotels, retail environments and more.”
Available in a variety of styles and combinations—Double Downlights, Double Adjustables, Double Wall Wash, or mix-and- match with Downlight and Wall Wash—Micro Doubles offer unmatched flexibility to address designers’ needs in numerous spaces: corporate, hospitality, healthcare, or residential environments. Double Downlights provide superior general ambient illumination with superior glare control providing optimal light levels quietly. Double Wall Wash features LittleOnes Micro’s proprietary 4-part optical system to achieve even wall lighting for navigating pathways and illuminating artwork.

USAI Lighting is committed to helping its customers meet sustainability goals now and in the future through innovative and energy-saving light fixtures. In support of that goal, the company has worked with the International Living Future Institute to achieve Red List Approved Status for a wide range of its products, including the LittleOnes Micro Doubles. USAI Lighting products that have received this classification are identified with a Declare label and are approved for use in Living Building Challenge projects.
LittleOnes Micro Doubles offer new possibilities for designers to create mood-defining spaces with mix-and-match styles and a variety of shapes, finishes, and USAI’s Classic White and Dim-to-Warm+ technologies. Designed at a miniature scale, the tiny fixtures don’t detract from the illuminated space, but rather create a sophisticated light environment for high-quality interiors.
