Kinecta is a credit union that prides itself on “banking done different”. Unlike other banks, it doesn’t seek to earn profits for its shareholders, instead, it reinvests its revenue to offer better rates for its individual and business members and it focuses on providing outstanding service and special member benefits.

In renovating its headquarters, Kinecta wanted to create a dynamic, welcoming space that reflected its business ethics, mission, and brand. The lighting is as unique as its approach to banking with large V-shaped patterns anchoring common spaces and units of Seem 2 Recessed scattered at different angles in hallways, adding rhythm and a sense of direction. The linear luminaires can also be seen working alongside the ID + 3.5" Downlights in multi-purpose rooms.
