(New Windsor, NY – September 2025) USAI Lighting is once again redefining architectural lighting with the launch of the LittleTwos®NXT: Singles, Multiples and Pinhole-the next generation of 2” recessed fixtures. Delivering up to 1875 lumens (singles), 1400 lumens per head (doubles), and 1100 lumens for Pinhole, the family of compact design with powerful optics, advanced glare control, and full flexibility are perfect for hospitality, residential, office, and healthcare environments.

Impressive performance, comfort, and clean design are opening doors to new design possibilities. USAI Lighting established a legacy of pioneering smaller fixtures that deliver powerful illumination within a refined, minimal aesthetic. Today, the company continues to lead that evolution with the introduction of the LittleTwos® NXT: Singles, Multiples and Pinhole—the next generation of 2" apertures that adapt seamlessly wherever compact, high-performance lighting is desired. With the LittleTwos NXT, USAI proves once again that smaller fixtures can deliver high performance, greater visual comfort, and unmatched design freedom. 

“This launch is about giving designers more freedom than ever before,” says Bonnie Littman, CEO of USAI Lighting. “With the LittleTwos NXT, we’re proving once again, that small fixtures can deliver big on performance with an abundance of options that preserve the beauty and integrity of a variety of ceilings with a consistent aesthetic throughout a project.” 

This debut builds on USAI’s long-standing leadership in miniaturization, dating back to 2008 with their introduction of the iconic BeveLED®, a 4.5” recessed aperture fixture. “It’s interesting how technology evolves. Back then 4.5” was considered really small in a time when most recessed lights ranged from 7” to 10”. Today, at USAI, we can get the performance of that size and larger out of 1”, 2” and 3” fixtures,” says Bonnie Littman, CEO of USAI Lighting. 

USAI offers a lighting toolbox of choices. Providing beam options from 10° up to 75° with deep regress and pinhole trim options, the LittleTwos NXT family delivers both precision and visual comfort. Available in downlight, wall wash, and adjustable styles, the line offers broad design flexibility, with options like Dim-to-Warm, Color Select® Tunable White, and Lutron Athena wireless control. For projects seeking flexibility and a clean ceiling aesthetic, the modular Multiples configuration provides two 2” heads in a single housing with factory-set on center spacing. The LittleTwos NXT Multiples provide options to double up with downlight, deep regress, wall wash and adjustable or mix and match downlight, deep regress and wall wash.

• Trim Options: Available in trimmed or trimless styles, compatible with sheetrock, ACT, wood/millwork, and stone ceilings
