Lighting design would not be what it is today without the brilliance of George Kovacs, whose merging of contemporary lines and mid-century twists led to a new creative standard. Kovacs track lighting systems are reflective of eye-catching if functional lighting pieces he started designing and manufacturing in Brooklyn, New York in the '60s. Kovacs-trained designers such as Rachel Simon, Karim Rashid and Alecia Wesner have now applied his signature designs to lighting collections like GK Lightrail and Simply Kovacs.

Introduce surprising flair to a room with George Kovacs track lighting options ranging from minimalistic to exuberant. His monorail kits, track line kits and portable fixed cable system kits can be hung from vaulted ceilings, draped down monochromatic walls or mounted to bare beams and joists. His mini pendant kits and flexible accent light kits are ideal for showcasing gallery art or architectural detailing.

Light up strategically using his etched glass shades or double French scavo shades, fixed or directional track heads. Create practical or task illumination with incandescent or halogen lights attached to swing arm or adjustable lighting fixtures. Complement a particular color palette with finishes like white, silver, chrome, brushed steel or brushed nickel on track bars and lines.

From the groundbreaking designer who acquainted America with the halogen torchiere, Kovacs track lighting systems add depth and drama to interiors in recognizably innovative ways. Buy them as complete systems or design your own, pre-assembled or as inspiring do-it-yourself kits that are sure to make your creative juices flow. Components like track heads and lighting fixtures can also be purchased individually.
