Why Lighting Families Need IES Data
Without accurate photometric data, your lighting analysis in Revit is essentially guesswork. All Boracity lighting families include manufacturer-grade IES files so your renderings and lux calculations are reliable.

4. Office Workstation System
Modular office workstation with desk, monitor arm, task chair, and cable management. Perfect for open-plan office layouts. Supports single, double, and quad configurations.
5. Sliding Glass Door
A high-detail sliding glass door family with proper wall hosting, accurate frame profiles, and switchable glass types (clear, frosted, tinted). One of the most versatile door families in our library.
6. Kitchen Island with Storage
Fully parametric kitchen island with integrated storage, breakfast bar option, and sink cutout. Includes 12 material presets for countertops and cabinet finishes.
7. Outdoor Planter Collection
Five geometric planter styles for landscape and terrace design. Each includes LOD 200 and LOD 300 variants for different project phases.
8. HVAC Diffuser Set
Round, square, and linear diffusers with accurate airflow parameters. Essential for MEP coordination — these families include proper connector data for duct routing.
9. Structural Steel Bracket
