Reynoldsburg Branch Library

At Reynoldsburg Library in Ohio, a thoughtful blend of form and function comes to life through LightArt’s acoustic lighting solutions. Designed with the community in mind, the library’s children’s area is a vibrant play space and a cozy haven for young readers and caregivers. LightArt’s Acoustic Echo pendants in a C-fin style bring a bold pop of color overhead with curved, petal-like fins that create a sculptural canopy. More than just decorative, the fins provide vital acoustic absorption—softening sound in a high-energy environment where imaginations run wild.

Paired with lit and unlit Acoustic Static beams, the fixtures introduce consistent visual language throughout the space while efficiently tackling ambient noise. In the children’s zone, color leads the way—inviting play and exploration—while the broader library features Acoustic Static beams in a refined Nickel finish, seamlessly blending into the architecture. These lighting and acoustic elements enhance the library’s multifunctional nature: a place to read, learn, meet, and connect.

Whether it’s a storytime circle or a quiet moment with a picture book, the space adapts to a range of needs—supported by lighting that does more than illuminate. LightArt’s solutions deliver acoustic performance, colorful character, and a sense of wonder that fits the library’s mission.
