Cooper Lighting, an industry leader committed to delivering innovative products and driving transformational technology in the lighting industry, has expanded its popular Shaper Fabriqué Architectural Fabric Series of decorative pendant, wall and surface luminaires. The Shaper Fabriqué Generation II Series offers additional shapes, sizes, mounting options, and new fabric and material choices, including patent-pending metal Motif design options for commercial and high-end residential spaces.

Now available in 14 distinctive shapes and 22 sizes, the Shaper Fabriqué has expanded to include 10-inch round and square cylindrical pendants and surface luminaires in 28-, 40- and 52-inch sizes as well as cube-shaped pendants and surface fixtures in 18-, 24- and 30-inch sizes. In addition, a new thin tapered-shaped cylinder has been added and ADA-complaint 8-inch high wall sconces are now available in 25-, 37- and 49-inch lengths, allowing specifiers more choices for healthcare applications. The ADA-compliant sconces and 10-inch cylindrical luminaires are available with Shaper’s unique custom designed Shade-In-Shade option, featuring hand-constructed, high-quality organza fabrics for a beautiful translucent appearance. The Shade-In-Shade option also includes new fabric choices.

The Fabriqué line now has an extensive offering of 29 materials and fabrics. New choices include six jet-cut metal Motif designs, available in plated or painted finishes; three different Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) bamboo wood shades of Amber, Natural and Variegated; three vinyl-coated options; and two specialty textured fabrics for the San Francisco Mart. Two unique pleated textured fabrics, European Mushroom and Casual Box, are also now available.

The Fabriqué Series’ premium manufacturing process features shades that have hand-tucked edges with minimal or no visual hardware or structural trim in addition to a modular design for easy modification and convenient installation.
The unique modular design of the Fabriqué Series allows the electrical contractor to install the suspension and electrical components early in the construction phase while the fabric shade is stored until after the final phase is complete to avoid damage or dirt. The modular design also allows for the fixtures to be easily modified.
