Yannis Dimoulis E.I.T

This is the Nivo. Most of the aesthetic design was finished by the time I was involved with this project. I assisted with planning better packaging, as the lenses were cracking during shipment. I also assisted with arranging the bills of materials such that our assembly team and the installation contractors could functionally put everything together. As these units are ordered in bulk, with the only distinction between them being the depth of the lens, the planning was crucial in creating a flow that functioned smoothly from order processing to final installation.

This is the Telios fixture. It is a sibling to the Nivo fixture, so my contributions were the same.

This is the High Ceiling 8" Round Downlight It is a higher voltage, higher output member of Focal Point's downlight family. I assisted with a number of aspects of this project. I helped with the management of the electronics module, creating a universal sheet metal casing to eliminate the need for multiple skus. I assisted in the purchase and programming of a robotic thermal grease applicator, helping assembly to consistently build orders. I also researched and guided the company's purchase of optical simulation software, helping to dial in the optics of the project, a crucial aspect of any downlight.

This is the 4.5" Adjustable Downlight. An older project, I helped with the earlier design on the revamp. The goal was to cut costs and ease assembly and install. I assisted with the rotation/tilt mechanism, helping source various parts to help build prototypes on an almost biweekly basis. I also assisted in the visual testing of the various optic modules we tested and facilitated the regulatory testing for thermals on the fixture.

This is the Seem 6 LED. It is the 6" aperture version of the Seem 2 and Seem 4. Most of the design work was finished, as it was a scale-up of the older Seem projects. I did, however, play a role in modifying the internal reflector to be more efficient, and also came up with a method for joining extended runs of the fixture to one another seemlessly (pun not intended). (Photos of these individual endeavors also in project folder)

This is the joiner bracket I designed for Seem 6. We were having trouble combining multiple fixtures in extended runs without the break lines showing too much. This bracket, along with a revised installation method, changed that. With an updated install method, this bracket was a more foolproof iteration of its predecessor, making it difficult to perform a crooked install with even a haphazard effort.

This is the new reflector design I helped to come up with for the Seem 6. The original had a jog at either edge and was reflecting too much internally to get light out. This new design, the bulkhead brackets beneath, and the holes to allow install access, were my combination of a series of team brainstorms to come up with a better reflector, and it was successful in achieving our target light output.

This is a side profile of two Seem 6 fixtures joined with my bracket. The break line is nearly invisible, thus preventing light leaking from the sides of the lens to the viewer beneath.

This is just a view of the joiner bracket from the inside of two Seem 6 fixtures.
