(1111, 'ZTB023', 94, 'University of the West of England', 'Bristol, United Kingdom', 'A stylish installation with maximum performance\r\n\r\nZumtobel Lighting have supplied a highly efficient new lighting solution that includes a lighting control system and a central battery system, for the new Faculty of Business and Law at the University of the West of England (UWE Bristol). Working to a brief that included energy efficiency, aesthetics and low maintenance, Zumtobel have created a stylish installation with maximum performance using MELLOW LIGHT V, SLOTLIGHT infinity, LINCOR and PANOS evolution luminaires throughout the building.\r\n\r\nUWE is Bristol\'s landmark £55m, 17,200m2 Faculty of Business and Law and comprises of Bristol Business School and Bristol Law School. Both of which provide a range of undergraduate, postgraduate, higher research and professional courses. Serving 5,500 students and containing 148 offices over 7 floors, the landmark academic building is located in the heart of the new developments on the UWE Bristol Frenchay Campus. Bristol Business School and Bristol Law School educate future professionals in all aspects of business and law – from entrepreneurship, management, leadership, strategy through to economists, accountants, marketing and human resources. In addition to academic law courses they also train barristers and solicitors and provide relevant research into important business and law issues that confront both businesses and society.\r\n\r\nIn an installation carried out by Whitehead Building Services, Zumtobel have created a lighting solution similar to that of natural daylight in all the circulation spaces, with their PANOS evolution luminaires. The LED downlight range has a colour rendering index of Ra > 80, a choice of three luminaire luminous flux packages with 1000 lm, 1800 lm or 2400 lm and is available in either warm (3000 K) or intermediate (4000 K) colour temperature. The unobtrusive PANOS evolution disappears into the architecture, providing powerful and efficient illumination. The rest rooms are also illuminated with PANOS evolution.\r\n\r\nSLOTLIGHT infinity are also installed in the circulation spaces  creating an excellent, continuous flow of illumination with no shadows, providing an eye catching, streamlined strip of uniform light.\r\n \r\nLINCOR Direct/Indirect pendant luminaires illuminate the office spaces and mock court suites. With its slim and unobtrusive design, the LINCOR LED luminaire draws an elegant line through the room, its contemporary minimalism enhances room axes and architectural concepts. Efficient LED technology takes full effect in a section of only 63 mm square, resulting in high-quality indirect/direct lighting. MELLOW LIGHT V has also been installed in office areas providing perfectly dispersed LED points that deliver well-balanced illumination of the work space, helping to prevent glare and the so-called ‘cave effect’.\r\n\r\nThe result is an eye-catching, contemporary installation with engaging spaces that work in unison with the new, refreshed facility. It also offers pleasant colour temperatures and the option to adjust them to an individual’s preference to support users with all activities.', 'http://www.lightlive.com/en/20190910-a-stylish-installation-with-maximum-performance/', 'Zumtobel-University-of-the-West-of-England_small.jpg', 'Zumtobel University of the West of England', 'University of the West of England, Bristol, United Kingdom', 'Project University of the West of England is located in Bristol, United Kingdom.

(1112, 'ZTB024', 94, 'Aston Martin Red Bull Racing', 'Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, UK', 'Illumination of the Milton Keynes Headquarters\r\n\r\nLighting from the Zumtobel and acdc brands have been chosen to provide the illumination for the impressive, state-of-the-art Milton Keynes HQ of Aston Martin Red Bull Racing, which includes MK-7, a vibrant new event space within the factory that has been created to provide a unique, immersive and exciting environment.\r\n\r\nAs part of an exclusive team supplier agreement between the companies, Zumtobel and acdc have provided the perfect ambience to showcase the racing cars and graphics in the versatile and dynamic MK-7, whilst providing the ideal illumination for other areas of the facility. The two companies, both market leaders in their own fields, are building a relationship that will benefit both high-tech brands. Zumtobel and acdc are contributing their extensive expertise and experience and, in addition to an outstanding lighting solution, providing an ongoing service for the development of the prestigious Aston Martin Red Bull Racing site. Both companies are working together to portray the brand image in the correct light, whilst saving energy and creating the best possible environment for staff and visitors alike. Aston Martin Red Bull Racing, Zumtobel and acdc are creating a winning combination with a shared vision of excellence, delivering solutions that are tailored to the success of their objectives.\r\n\r\nThe journey begins at the entrance of MK-7, low glare downlights have been used to provide moody, atmospheric pools of light that give the feeling of anticipation to guests entering the space. The reception area has been illuminated with Zumtobel’s SLOTLIGHT Infinity with its consistently linear design and high precision that achieves a completely new dimension of linearity: it is three-dimensional, linear and yet dynamic. The area used to showcase the Aston Martin Red Bull Racing fleet of racing cars required experimentation to light all 14 models from RB1 to RB14 as required.  \r\n\r\nThe original brief was to use mainly blue light, one of the predominant colours along with red and yellow used for the cars’ livery and, after looking at many alternatives, it was decided that this provided the perfect solution if additional coloured light was added to the blue in the mixing palette. Concept designer Shaun Lawry then experimented using white light to determine product positioning to create the best modelling effects and, by introducing RGB started playing with the colour to establish what worked and what didn’t and discovered that the effect of blue light would kill the colours of red and yellow but established that with the introduction of red and green light provided the necessary energy to highlight the logos across the cars’ livery.  \r\n\r\nAs the concept was modelled in 3DS MAX software using true photometry and virtual cameras, the Zumtobel Group design team were able to animate and demonstrate the lighting effect and controls that would be possible. This provided an in-depth knowledge of how the car design livery would react to different coloured light and how blues and yellows could be used to emphasise the colour graphics being used. Shaun commented “We have successfully provided a chiaroscuro effect which draws attention purely to the form and shape of the cars, then by adding colour we have added an extra dimension and focus towards the cars’ livery”. The final scheme used three lights to illuminate each car. With the final positioning the design team were able to set the luminaires to use mainly blue and yellow light which were used to switch on and emphasise the true brand colours of the cars’ livery. All fittings have been supplied in black to blend seamlessly with the surrounding decor.\r\n\r\nTo negate the need to turn on all of the specialist lighting for cleaning and maintenance tasks, high-performance CRAFT high-bay luminaires from Zumtobel have been installed in the ceiling on an 11 pole TECTON trunking system that allows luminaires to be moved, using CLIX-technology, should the layout of the space change. TECTON trunking bosting up to 40 % shorter installation times requires initial installation by a trained electrician but, once in place, fittings can easily be snapped into position via CLIX-technology by means of two side-mounted rotary levers on the TECTON trunking.\r\n\r\nIn addition to the lighting in the main event space, SUPERSYSTEM LED spotlight is highlighting the drivers’ helmets in the display cases in the MK-7 Boardroom, providing uniform light distribution with high intensity and soft transitions, without stray light from the light cone.\r\n\r\nDMX has been used throughout the project with the exception of the MK-7 Boardroom where a DALI system is employed to control the ambience of the room. RESCLITE PRO from Zumtobel is providing the flexible, programmable and efficient emergency lighting throughout the facility. This smart emergency luminaire utilises new lenses to provide enhanced flexibility and combines an unobtrusive look with the highest function-driven performance. The emergency lighting uses eBox, a central battery system that has been optimised for use with efficient LED technology.

Initially opened in 2007, the single, tall central pylon, which helps suspend twin 612-foot road spans, used 348 LED luminaires to light the tower. To update the lighting system and controls, as well as to allow for a more dynamic lighting of the tower, HLB Lighting Design replaced the older system in 2018 with 200 Lumenpulse Lumenfacade fixtures whose RGBW capabilities are capable of producing a full spectrum of colourful displays. \"We have a long-standing relationship with Lumenpulse,\" said Faith E. Baum, Principal at HLB Lighting Design, \"and we know they will stand behind their luminaires.\"\r\n\r\nThe public has been excited about the new lighting design, and it has become a centrepiece of countless social media posts. This project is a rarity amongst infrastructure lighting as it involves a unique collaboration between not only the client and the lighting designer, but also local artists. The community-driven initiative sets this bridge\'s lighting apart from so many others. The primary lighting programs are the works of six artists which have been interpreted into kinetic light scenes. These original designs are played out nightly on the bridge\'s column of glass and Lumenpulse Lumenfacades are the linear projectors responsible for bringing these visions to light. The artists created two or more scenarios each, 10 of which are shown on a rotating basis. Between the artist scenarios, and during special occasions, HLB has designed a number of programs to celebrate local sports teams, to commemorate local and national holidays and events, as well as programs to mark seasonal changes, such as a program that mimicks snowfall.\r\n\r\nThere are 45, four-foot long Lumenfacade fixtures located in each of the glass-enclosed quadrants of the pylon and 16 two-foot fixtures in the tower peak. This allows for granular control and a more precise use of colour than the previous design. The control system is located in the neighbouring Robert Craig Memorial Bridge. The controls are also accessible remotely from Ohio Department of Transportation\'s (ODOT) district office through a custom-designed user interface. It is from here that continuous diagnostic monitoring of each LED fixture\'s performance can also be carried out.\r\n\r\nThe Lumenfacade luminaires have reduced maintenance costs and increased the flexibility and controls of the bridge\'s lighting, while simultaneously enacting dynamic, colour-changing lighting programs that have boosted civic pride. Now a symbol synonymous with Toledo, Baum attributes the success of the project to, \"the new lighting system and the incredible collaboration between local artists, ODOT, HLB and the entire design team.

In order to comply with the energy saving requirements of the technical code, luminaires with a 1-10V dimming system were installed, making it possible to adapt the intensity of artificial lighting and energy consumption in accordance with environmental conditions and natural light sources. Likewise, the luminaires were supplied with a specific black finish to achieve maximum integration with the rest of the components that make up the space. Due to the location of the project, all luminaires installed outside the Cruise Terminal building were supplied with a protection treatment specific for saline environments.\r\n\r\nIn addition to the standard products in the Lamp catalogue, the lighting solution was complemented by several special developments. Firstly, the Extraplana luminaire, where a profile that made it possible for the entire wiring to be fitted and routed was developed alongside the installer, with the purpose of simplifying the installation. On the other hand, for Nic outdoor downlights, a special semi-recessed installation system was developed consisting of a ring with anchoring springs prepared to be installed in a 3 mm thick sheet. There were 400 adjustable Puzzle downlights also installed, for which a special lens shade was developed to prevent glare and to improve the luminaire\'s lighting control. Finally, custom-made profiles were installed that housed a LED strip of higher power than the standard one in the catalogue.

(1131, 'TRX024', 27, 'Das Lebendige Haus', 'Leipzig, Germany', 'On behalf of Denkmalneu, the renowned artist SHA. has created the innovative SKY lighting installation for Das Lebendige Haus in Leipzig. Traxon DOT LED solutions and e:cue lighting control from OSRAM support the impressive display in which sound recordings from the surroundings become perceptible as a lighting and sound installation after being processed and alienated. This creative project has been winning awards ever since – DNA Paris Design Award 2019, LICC London International Creative Competition 2019, European Product Design Award 2019, Iconic Awards: Innovative Architecture 2019 – and was recently nominated for the German Design Award 2020.\r\n\r\nA large and previously vacant property with an area of 70,000 m2 has been creatively and sustainably renovated and converted into a modern mixed-use building. Das Lebendige Haus in Leipzig, which opened in November 2018, houses co-working places, 5‑star suites, office space, restaurants, bars, commercial space, leisure and fitness facilities, various showrooms, and shops. Parts of the building can also be booked as meeting and event locations.\r\n\r\nDas Lebendige Haus is particularly impressive at night. The acclaimed Viennese artist SHA. has created a spectacular lighting installation which generates different atmospheres depending on the color programming and can be marveled at from great distance. This innovative project under the glazed rooftop space of the former main post office at Augustusplatz is called SKY.\r\n\r\n\r\nAn urban symphony: 1,500 m2 of spatial art for all the senses\r\n\r\nThe sophisticated work of art extends across 1,500 m2 and forms the beating heart of the revived property. The newly created location with views over Augustusplatz, one of the largest squares in Germany, is used as a modern event, catering and meeting center. Becoming one entity with the city, SKY enters into dialogue with its adjacent architecture. SHA. used the urban vitality of the square as a starting point, with video and audio recordings from the surroundings now being projected onto the roof and artistically processed. The final result is a lighting and sound installation that touches the senses. \r\n\r\n“We microscope reality by constructing a medial mirror,” says the artist. “5,000 individually controllable light spots constitute the pixels of a huge three-dimensional screen. Thereby a unique and aesthetic form of relaxation is created – with an added benefit of a stunning view overlooking the city. Special lighting moods and sound atmospheres shape the multi-sensory design. These spaces stay in constant motion during the day but also throughout the seasons. SKY lives with the city, its pulse, rhythms and the rituals of the people. An urban symphony,” says SHA. \r\n\r\n\r\nMore than just light: Traxon DOT LED solutions and e:cue lighting control from OSRAM\r\n\r\nIn the dark, Das Lebendige Haus shines far beyond Augustusplatz into the Leipzig pedestrian precinct. A total of 6,000 acrylic light tubes were used, which creates different atmospheres depending on the color programming. 5,000 of them embellish  the new glass roof space alone, and 1,000 more adorn the stairwells and the lower passage. Innovative LED lighting and control technology from OSRAM has allowed SHA. to create an artistic display which surpasses  the aspect of sheer decoration.\r\n\r\nThe acrylic tubes are used as light conductors. LED DOTs from Traxon (Black Cable and Black DOT, 35 PXL) are mounted at the ceiling and shine all the way down into the acrylic tubes.The tubes themselves convey a satin finish at the bottom which makes the light disperse gently and evenly. The lighting is controlled by e:cue, consisting of Lighting Control Engine 2, Sympl e:bus node and Glass Touch control panel. Different lighting scenarios have been installed which can be changed to suit different requirements.\r\n\r\n\r\nDenkmalneu – spaces for people\r\n\r\nWhether it’s old factories in ruinous condition or vacant office buildings, Denkmalneu develops and manages special properties. With Das Lebendige Haus the German group of companies has developed an urban mixed-use concept which combines working, living, catering and leisure under one roof. It is the second major property after Dresden.\r\n\r\n\r\nSHA. – The Art of Exceptional\r\n\r\nThe Austrian brand of SHA. stands for sensory spaces.

Our own history has some of its roots in this area. We were here in 1993 for the acquisition of Fivep, an important company in the lighting sector. Fivep was the result of the merger between Fidenza Vetraria, specialised in high quality equipment for external and urban lighting, and Pollice Illuminazione, a company with a particularly strong presence in the production of high-performance and highly technological equipment. \r\n\r\n\r\nFrom the acquisition of Fivep to lighting for the city\r\n\r\nThis year, twenty-six years later, we have returned to Fidenza to provide the city with lighting. The municipality is in fact carrying out important works for the requalification of the public lighting system and the valorisation of the area with a view to the creation of a Smart City. It is an immense honour for us to take part in a project that involves the installation of many of our products: 1079 Orao, 945 Kalos, 196 Agathos, 156 Kosmos, 98 Levante and 14 Cube Flood will create the new lighting system for the city.\r\n\r\nThe new lighting system has been created in respect of the area and its particular characteristics: lighting at 3000 K has been chosen for the historical centre, a number of versions in the Orao line have been personalised to allow installation on existing support arms that were made specially for the city of Fidenza, and urban areas of particular interest have been completely requalified and illuminated with our Lit Floor, Kore and Trail systems, or with versions of Orao in dynamic white.\r\n\r\n\r\nThe technical characteristics of the new lighting project for Fidenza\r\n\r\nThe dimming of the light flux is modulated in accordance with the presence or absence of people in the area in question, thanks to a system of cameras that are capable of detecting presence.\r\n\r\nA wireless remote-control system has been chosen for the dimming of the light flux, created in collaboration with Reverberi. This solution allows for the remote modification of the operational parameters for the regulation of the light flux, either centralised or for precise areas; for the remote diagnosis of any malfunctions in order to optimise maintenance works and integrate sensors and other devices into the light source for the provision of new services to the city and its citizens. As of this year, Fidenza will have a public Wi-Fi network, access points for the city, electronic information boards, recharging stations for electric cars, a smart parking system and a weather station. It is estimated that the works will lead to energy savings of 62%.\r\n\r\n\r\nProject: Restart Progetti\r\n\r\nProducts: Agathos Post Top, Kosmos Post Top, Cube Wall-Mounted, Kalos Post Top, Levante Floodlight, Orao Pole Side', 'https://www.caribonigroup.com/en/projects/fidenza-26-years-on-new-light-for-the-city/', 'Cariboni-Group-Fidenza_small.jpg', 'Cariboni Group Fidenza', 'Fidenza, Italy', 'Project Fidenza is located in Italy.

This futuristically designed institution for extracurricular education is dedicated to the topic of energy, and features an experience world and an educational area. Exhibitions and educational programmes provide a tangible experience.\r\n\r\nThe entrance building is used for interactive exhibitions on the subject of energy and also features conference rooms, special exhibition rooms, restaurants, shops and open-air exhibition areas. Two adjoining wings and an additional freestanding building house training centres as extracurricular learning locations.\r\n\r\nThe design of the centre is inspired by the energy in nature. Circles, arches and ellipses can be found in the design of the open spaces, the interior and exterior of the building and in exhibition objects throughout the complex. They symbolise the orbit of electrons around atomic nuclei, circular or elliptical planetary orbits, arc-shaped comet paths, and bows as hunting tools and the oldest device in the world for energy conversion.\r\n\r\nBEGA luminaires are used both outdoors and indoors. System bollards illuminate the paths, stairs and surfaces around the centre, with conical reflectors directing light evenly onto the illuminated surface. When planning with the modular BEGA bollard system, the desired bollard heads can be combined with bollard tubes with different functions. Spatial illumination of the surfaces around the EEZ is provided by surface washers with asymmetrical light distribution. The attack angle of these wall luminaires can be adjusted in ten-degree intervals, thereby individually adapting to the given lighting requirements.\r\n\r\nDrive-over in-ground luminaires provide lighting accents on the façade of the futuristic buildings, while floodlights highlight the architecture.\r\n\r\nWithin the centre, rectangular recessed wall luminaires are used to illuminate pathways. Arranged in rows, their unshielded light aids orientation and sets visual accents. Their extremely low maintenance requirements also result in a product concept with quick and easy installation. The LED modules with an extremely long service life ensure economical operation in a centre dedicated to energy issues.

The modern laboratory building for pharmaceutical sciences completes a building complex, with an atrium and bridges connecting the different areas.\r\n\r\nThe compact Pharma Science Building features a sculptural design with a kink in the façade. “This makes the atrium appear more spacious and provides more façade length in a limited area,” explain the architects of C.F. Møller Architects. The geometric shape is enhanced by the use of diamond-shaped tombac panels. The dark colour of this brass alloy, with its high copper content, contrasts with the light colours of the existing buildings in the immediate vicinity. The façade of the Pharma Science Building is broken up in several places to provide openings with generous views.\r\n\r\nThe interior is designed to be open across all floors and features large glass surfaces. The architects wanted to aid orientation and maximise the daylight entering the building. This optimal use of daylight is one of the ways the building meets the low-energy class requirements in Denmark.\r\n\r\nWithin the building, sustainably constructed and economically efficient BEGA luminaires illuminate the surfaces and walls, highlighting the architecture with coordinated lighting. LED wall luminaires with light emission on two sides enhance the appearance of the dark façades thanks to their rotationally symmetrical narrow beam light distribution. Another feature of the luminaires: Specially machined safety glass prevents dirt from accumulating.\r\n\r\nSurface washers with outrigger arms also highlight wall and ground surfaces.

The 50 m Olympic size pool and the two 25 m pools have made this location the official training centre for the national Swiss team.\r\n\r\nThe lighting system of this architecturally sophisticated centre was updated as part of a comprehensive modernisation project. The intentionally generous glass façades of the centre are a definite plus for pool users, but also means very little installation surfaces for efficient illumination. The narrow and compact shape of BEGA wall luminaires are the perfect solution. They ensure excellent light conditions and create attractive highlights on the wall with their rotationally symmetrical narrow beam light distribution and light emission on two sides. The three luminaire sizes with different light outputs used in this project offer a multitude of lighting design options for the indoor and outdoor areas of the facility.\r\n\r\nThe BEGA LED compact floodlights offer uniform illumination on the paths of the large area pool compound. Their wide beam light distribution ensures excellent levels of illumination. Their custom coating, which was developed specifically for use in pool areas, makes them virtually impervious to water vapours with chlorine content.\r\n\r\nSymmetrical wide beam BEGA surface-mounted ceiling luminaires used as LED compact downlights create an attractive ambiance in the well-lit changing rooms and locker area.

(1152, 'LSF006', 121, 'Hillcrest Park', 'Fullerton, California, USA', 'When the City of Fullerton, California, initiated a multi-million dollar, phased renovation of its 35-acre Hillcrest Park, it was guided by a central goal: “acknowledge Hillcrest Park as a significant community asset and reclaim its rightful place as the city’s premier park.”\r\n \r\nThe park, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, was created in the 1930s, one of many Works Progress Administration (WPA) projects that provided Americans coming out of the Depression with meaningful work. A large, formal stone fountain, circled with hand-placed stonework and walkways set amidst a large open lawn area, was at one time the centerpiece of the park, but the stonework was crumbling and the fountain, which stopped working in the 1970s, was in disrepair. A long period of drought took its toll on the mature trees throughout the park.\r\n \r\nStudio-MLA’s Los Angeles office was contracted by the city to bring the park back to the “grandeur and activity it once experienced,” says Studio-MLA Principal Jeff Hutchins. Phase 1 entailed the construction of a long set of stone stairs that connected the park to an adjacent sports park and expanded Hillcrest Park’s exercise and wellness opportunities. Phase 2, completed in May of 2018, brought new life to the Great Lawn area, which included the fountain, a large lawn space, and walkways.\r\n \r\nThis area of the park held particular importance to the community. The city’s Veterans Day parade ends at the Veterans Memorial located near the fountain, followed by a program in the lawn area. Continuing this tradition as well as encouraging more community-wide events and activities was the plan for the renovation of the Great Lawn area.\r\n \r\n“The corner of the park that includes the fountain and lawn is one of the most visible parts of the park,” says Studio-MLA’s Matt Lysne. It borders Harbor Boulevard, a main thoroughfare in the city, but with no formal pedestrian entrance and a metal utility fence separating much of this area of the park from the sidewalk, the park was far from inviting. A pedestrian bridge that now connects the boulevard with the park and creates a formal entrance was a significant part of Phase 2 work. The bridge’s stone construction pays homage to the WPA stonework. Roughly 50 feet in length, the bridge’s center includes four Landscape Form’s Neoliviano backless benches, and the four ends of the bridge are lit by Ashbery area lights set atop pilasters on the bridge. The light poles were shortened to fit the columns.\r\n \r\n“We also widened the sidewalks leading to the bridge, which improved pedestrian access and safety along the busy boulevard, and gave more prominence to the park entrance and bridge,” says Hutchins.\r\n \r\n“The park was disconnected,” continues Hutchins. “Part of Studio-MLA’s design intent was to create a connection system with a lot of access points. The bridge is a perfect example of that vision. The park is quite hilly, which makes it difficult to view long expanses of space. Phase 2’s stone walkways from the bridge to the fountain and along the perimeter of the lawn area are making connections throughout the space and providing wayfinding for visitors.”\r\n \r\nAshbery area lights fit naturally into the lawn space, echoing the park’s historical references. “The historical aspects of the park were important to retain and honor,” explains Lysne. “Ashbery lights have a traditional look that goes well with the bridge, the stone work, fountain, and walkways. But they are also modern, with a simple design and a formality in their lines.” The lights are placed throughout the lawn and fountain area and along the walkways, providing the necessary light to extend the park’s evening events.\r\n \r\nStudio-MLA worked with David Silverman & Associates’ business representative Eric Avanian to plot the lights and calculations to meet the city’s standards. The approximately 40 12-foot tall lights “create a statement and a jewel look at night,” says Lysne. “The lights are also dimmable, so the city has flexibility to keep the park lit differently depending on time of day or activities happening within.”\r\n \r\nThe fountain’s facelift reflects the best of the old as well as the new. Studio-MLA researched old photos and records in recreating the fountain jets and lighting patterns. Now LED lights follow the same jet and color patterns, but also offer programmability. “We mixed historical design with modern technology,” says Hutchins.\r\n \r\nStudio-MLA selected Neoliviano benches for their “simple lines and warm wood material,” says Lysne. “They complement the landscaping, stone work, and lighting.” Beyond those on the bridge, Neoliviano benches are located along the decomposed granite pathways, near the fountain, and on the newly built overlook and reinforce the “formal/informal design approach we took to Phase 2,” says Lysne. “We always wanted to have a formal layout but keep it informal in terms of materials.”\r\n \r\nEmerson bike racks complete the Landscape Forms elements.\r\n \r\n“We often start with site furnishings to tell the story of a space,” says Lysne. “For example, we designed the rails on the bridge with an ipe wood top rail that mimics the wood benches. When Eric brought a full-size sample of an Ashbery light to the studio, it provided us with inspiration as we designed the Great Lawn and lighting scheme.”\r\n \r\nStudio-MLA is now on to Phase 3 of park renovation which will bring the Duck Pond back to a more naturalized appearance. Ashbery area lights will also light this space, extending the design of Phase 2 and the beauitufcation of Fullerton\'s historical masterpiece.\r\n\r\n\r\nLandscape Forms Elements: ​Ashbery Area Lights, Neoliviano Benches, Emerson Bike Racks\r\n\r\nDesign Partners: Studio-MLA', 'https://www.landscapeforms.com/en-us/lighting/projects/pages/Hillcrest-Park.aspx', 'Landscape-Forms-Hillcrest-Park_small.jpg', 'Landscape Forms Hillcrest Park', 'Hillcrest Park', 'Project Hillcrest Park is located in Fullerton, California, USA.

Located on the coast, south-east of Adelaide, it is a popular destination for walking, fishing and swimming.\r\n\r\nWhen it came to the lighting upgrade of the public space across the jetty, it was important to provide illumination that was adequate and has suitable rear cut-off to allow as little spillage as possible to the ocean adjacent to the jetty. For this reason, among others, the WE-EF ZFT434 street and area luminaire was chosen to replace existing metal halide luminaires.\r\n\r\n“We knew the City of Holdfast Bay wanted to use the ZFT400 series, but the potential outcome would be limited by the existing pole locations and pole heights,” explained WE-EF lighting designer Andrew Richardson.\r\n\r\nTogether with Buckford Illumination Group, WE-EF’s sales partner in South Australia, Mr Richardson came up with a solution for the city that provided safety and long-term security. “Typically, we would be trying to aim for a compliant design in accordance with the street lighting standard. With the low pole height and large pole spacing we were going to be somewhat limited in the level of safety that could be provided,” Mr Richardson said. “However, we managed to get a low level of vertical illuminance by using the ZFT434 with [P65] optics, which also created a better sense of security than the previous installation.” \r\n\r\nHe added that the warranty offered by WE-EF was also attractive. “Generally, the City of Holdfast Bay prefers WE-EF luminaires for their quality and performance. In this case, the 5CE+ Primer finish with the 10-year warranty was a key factor, due to the project location.”\r\n\r\nThe [P65] pedestrian pathway optical distribution is not available as a standard option for the ZFT434 street and area luminaire. However, due to the nature of the jetty, i.e., its narrow width, the designer felt it was the best choice. “We really wanted to use this optical distribution, which effectively has a narrower distribution curve than other optics in the range,” Mr Richardson explained. “The main reason for that was to get as much light as possible going up and down the length of the narrow jetty, without having much forward throw light going over the side into the sea,” he said, adding that “waste light” could have an adverse impact on wildlife.\r\n\r\nThe lighting upgrade has had a dramatic improvement on the Brighton Jetty. The replacement of old luminaires with new ones provided much better light output, control and uniformity. “Feedback from the city has been very positive and they say the response by the public, particularly the local inhabitants, has been excellent,” Mr Richardson noted.\r\n\r\n\r\nPhotography: Ina Parakhina', 'https://www.weef.de/#!/int/project/brighton-jetty-adelaide', 'We-ef-Lighting-Brighton-Jetty_small.jpg', 'We-ef Lighting Brighton Jetty', 'Brighton Jetty, Adelaide, Australia', 'Project Brighton Jetty is located in Adelaide, Australia.

From 13 September through 15 December, the Santa Maria Novella Museum is to host a show designed and produced by Aboca, on Leonardo’s systemic approach to the arts and science. Therefore, the shapes and processes that led his investigation on the relationship between the man and nature. And so, the exhibit comes to life throughout the city with the reproduction of the five Platonic solids positioned in different squares to represent as many elements of the cosmos. Closing the exhibit in a majestic way that symbolizes Leonardo’s genius, is a polyhedra a dodecahedron wrapped in a forest of majestic plants.

An green invasion in a sacred space, handled by the Guicciardini & Magni architectural firm in collaboration with lighting designer Fulvio Baldeschi and Linea Light Group. The approach is dual: lively and dynamic lighting of the environment, static and spotlights with beams to enhance the works on display.\r\n\r\nA double, mirrored stage duplicates a vertically developed forest at the entrance. A scenic opening supported from below by Periskop, an aluminium spotlight with powerLED source, black finishing and 30° optics. To reproduce the contrasts of a living nature in an imaginative way, a series of Navata strips was used, DALI-controlled spotlights, for a light-dark play of various intensities. The cyclic increasing and decreasing of luminous power allows true light waves to be achieved for an effect that is fully reminiscent of the vitality of the forest.\r\n\r\nCountless Eyelets were positioned on the vases that line the entire perimeter of the exhibit. Adjustable and small in size, they provide a secure minimalistic aesthetic effect. Tee and Beret light the main showcase, whereas Xenia Wall, inserted in the supporting parallelepiped at the base of the display walls, is the true crown-jewel of the Linea Light Group products. A linear profile with high brightness and flexibility with adjustment directed toward the walls thanks to a riser at the base of the body that allows the elimination of glaring and use free of any visual discomfort and reverberation.\r\nClosing out the path, the dodecahedron is spectacularly supported by a lighting dialogue with LED strips set in the structure and facing inward.

As an integral part of a very high-end fit-out, this exciting new-concept restaurant was in need of a lighting scheme that could match the restaurant’s intrinsic promise to guests of a truly unique and innovative multi-cuisine dining experience.\r\n\r\nThe Glasshouse renovation includes a triple-height glass conservatory extension with oversized bronze and glass hanging sculptures that blend seamlessly into the adjacent terraces and gardens. Kate and Sam designed a bespoke layout of track and spotlights situated directly above the eight different food preparation and serving stations that works perfectly and even encourages a more dynamic use of space.\r\n\r\nA carefully selected number of our embossed matt black 60mm Yori Evo Ghostrack fittings give purpose to every length of track. Each fitting has individual beam angles ranging from a tight 12 degrees to a wide 39 degrees but all spotlights are fitted with the appropriate Precision or Performance lens and diffuser so as to deliver the exact lumen output desired to each section of the food on display or working surface below. In this way, guests are able to personally follow the finest highlighted detail of their food preparation by suitably accomplished chefs or simply make their choice, return to their table and enjoy.\r\n\r\nIn the seating areas, Kate and Sam had Reggiani specially create a bespoke brushed brass-finish track to complement the decorative matt brass surround.

A wide variety of work situations are to be found side by side in the comfortable and homely open space offices of the engineering, design and advisory company, Aurecon. Efficient office lighting with ERCO LED lighting tools supports the open work culture.\r\n\r\nNine office floors above a publicly accessible ground floor with cafés and restaurants: the tallest wooden building ever to be constructed in Australia has been located in the centre of Brisbane since 2018. With its design, the architectural practice Bates Smart and Aurecon, responsible for structural and building services engineering, in addition to the ecologically sustainable design elements, made a pioneering contribution to the topic of sustainability and the responsible use of resources. This includes the construction of prefabricated elements made of glulam (glued laminated timber) and CLT (cross-laminated timber) with a glass façade, significantly lowering the CO2 footprint than comparable steel and concrete constructions.\r\n\r\nThe modern timber construction also has advantages on the inside: visible timber ceilings provide not just good acoustics but a comfortable spatial ambience. Stainless steel profiles below the ceiling function as cable trays and track systems. \"The high-level design concept for our new office space was the idea of home,\" explains Phillip Saal, Senior Project Engineer at Aurecon who was also responsible for the lighting design of Aurecon’s fit out. \"Whilst in the office, and after work, our aim was for employees to feel healthier than when they arrived.\" With this principle intent of enhancing health and wellbeing, the home-like environment concieved by fit out architect Woods Bagot supports the company´s employees and celebrates the building´s progressive nature.

To achieve the illumination effect, the architects concieved a unified line of light fittings throughout the entire facility. LUG Light Factory developed a solution to fully implement this concept, making it possible to maintain a similar style and, additionally, meet the extremely diverse requirements of individual tenants.\r\n\r\nSeveral companies competed for the Bałtyk lighting contract but the experience, ingenuity and creativity of LUG Light Factory was successful and they have now installed light fittings all over the building. This was made possible thanks to the application of a common lighting system, with the same colour temperature and light intensity, as well as an individually designed and adapted lamp arrangement. Customised installation solutions were also implemented in this project, which were developed by LUG Light Factory\'s customisation department, composed of special trays adapted to the installation of light fittings selected for this facility. During the production of these trays, cooperation with ROKFON was established and the concept was adapted to the needs of the project together, which required the trays to be an integral part of the ceiling. Additionally, the shape of the building walls, and consequently, the multitude of different angles, was a challenge in this project. Therefore, the lighting was individually adapted to each room. However, in order to make the lighting lines coincide at each level, the trays on every floor had to be arranged in a similar manner. Exactly 2567 VOLICA series ceiling fittings were used in the building that differ in colour, size and installation type. Due to the atypical cubage of the rooms, it was necessary to apply supplementary lighting in the form of VERTICA standing fittings, in order to ensure a sufficient amount of light for office work. Moreover, different types of LUGSTAR systems were also installed and all the fittings used in the project offer the synergy of well designed and modern LED technology.

It is an engineering marvel built by legendary mid-century architect John Lautner who was lauded by Frank Lloyd Wright as the \"next best architect on earth.\"\r\n\r\nSilvertop was originally commissioned in 1956 by Kenneth Reiner, a businessman and inventor, who happened to be the perfect partner-in-crime for Lautner and his future-thinking vision. They set out to build a modern home full of technological wonders, and any piece of technology that Lautner did not have, Reiner would invent and make it. \r\n\r\nPer Lautner and Reiner, \"The house was to be quiet, both to the ear and the eye, and achieve a sense of natural beauty by blending into the natural surroundings.\" The concept was to make it connect the indoors to the outdoors. A prime example is the expansive curving living room window made from hanging glass panels and custom mechanical glass doors that blend into the overall window, and the 80-foot monolithic concrete domed roof that mimics the hill the house sits on.\r\n\r\nThe groundbreaking Silvertop project featured the very first infinity-edge pool created - dreamed up by Lautner. Publications, at the time, were in awe of Silvertop\'s pool, which was \"spookily engineered so there seems to be no rim, just water to the edge,\" per Life Magazine in 1962.\r\n\r\nThe house was filled with other technological wonders of its day, that are still fascinating today, such as a concealed and silent HVAC system, mechanical and electrical systems, concealed outlets and switches, faucetless sinks, a dining table operated by hydraulics that lowered for cocktails or raised for meals, ingeniously designed closets, niches and drawers, including hidden rotating closets (like a spice rack, but for clothing), motorized louvers and cork ceiling that slid open to turn rooms into glass pavilions, as well as a fully retractable glass wall and roof in the master bathroom creating an outdoor shower.\r\n\r\nLautner was known to possess a preternatural sense of light, which he incorporated into his repertoire of iconic architectural pieces. Silvertop was not an exception, with electrically-controlled skylights, and lights that pivoted into the ceiling, as much thought went into the lighting as he put into every other aspect of designing Silvertop.\r\n\r\nAfter purchasing Silvertop in 2014 Beats By Dre President, Luke Wood, commissioned Bestor Architecture to embark upon an extensive restoration, which included discretely modernizing Silvertop while staying true to Lautner\'s original intent by working with an architectural historian. \r\n\r\nAny systems that were modernized or digitized were hidden from view, such as the heating and cooling systems. The lighting at Silvertop was updated with the latest technology and curated by KGM Architectural Lighting. Fixtures used included Diva multiples and Bongo surface mounted fixtures by Zaniboni Lighting.  \r\n\r\nThe restoration and modernization of Silvertop has preserved the integrity of one of L.A.\'s most important homes, while keeping its spirit of innovation alive.

(1182, 'FOP010', 45, 'The Walker School', 'Marietta, GA, United States', 'Stemming from its curriculum emerges a new dynamic learning facility \r\n \r\nA capital campaign designed to provide state-of-the-art academic, arts, and athletic facilities helped one of Metro Atlanta’s top-ranked independent schools complete the first phase of their main campus expansion plan. The Walker School, based in Marietta, Georgia offers students from Pre-K through 12th grade an engaging educational experience to foster curiosity and gain valuable skills in an intimate and diverse community. In preparation for college and life, the school provides challenging “STEM” curricula and a unique learning style to equip students with confidence and skills outside of an academic setting.\r\n\r\nTo continue providing its students the best possible learning experience, the academic institution commissioned Chapman Coyle Chapman & Associates Architects to design the Warren Science and Technology Building. The newly constructed, 37,000 square-foot building houses Middle School and Upper School classrooms and laboratories associated with science and technology disciplines and has set the tone for future learning and development.\r\n\r\n“The new building was thoughtfully designed to reflect Walker\'s current programs and academic model while also creating a blueprint for the future expansion. We created numerous new spaces, from breakout and collaborative learning areas to a robotics lab, to provide Walker an opportunity to expand its curriculum,” stated Michael Mascheri Jr., Principal at Chapman Coyle Chapman & Associates Architects.\r\n\r\nTo future-proof the building and minimize the school’s environmental impact, Mascheri integrated efficient building elements such as LED lighting and multiple terraced green roofs which makes up 60% of the building’s roof. The largest terrace serves as an outdoor exploration classroom.\r\n\r\nTo address the illumination needs of the school while providing an aesthetically pleasing experience, Mascheri collaborated with Ken Langley of Conway & Owen Consulting Engineers, the electrical engineering firm for the project. One of the areas where they brought a wow factor is the three-story main lobby.\r\n\r\n“Rather than the lighting only being a functional component and responding to a task, our goal was to have the main entrance ceiling area become a centerpiece of the space. I really wanted the light fixtures to be integral to the architecture and to define the space,” remarked Mascheri. Though an architect by trade, Mascheri also takes on the challenge of lighting design in many of his projects. “The combination of the geometric cloud component and the square and rectangular Focal Point Nera luminaires play off the architecture of the building to become an integral element and create a 3D sculpture to maximize the visual impact.”\r\n\r\nAkin to the lobby, Mascheri and Langley continued to deliver a dynamic and visually engaging environment throughout the facility by echoing the programs offered by the school. The longtime colleagues with complementary styles, rooted in over two decades of project partnerships, selected the breakout space adjacent to the chemistry classrooms and lab to incorporate another ceiling display. The large open area gave way to designing another feature, one that would positively advance and differentiate Walker School from the competition.\r\n\r\n“We wanted it to reflect what was happening in that area. We came up with the idea by looking at different imagery and elements within the curriculum,” mentioned Mascheri. In the open collaboration space, they incorporated hexagonal ceiling tiles where the negative space between the tiles emulates the structure of an organic molecule or compound commonly found in the students’ chemistry courses. To emphasize the negative space, Mascheri and Langley worked closely with Focal Point’s custom engineering team to create an awe-inspiring continuous recessed luminaire that accentuates the ceiling element while also supporting the needs of the space.\r\n\r\nFamiliar with Focal Point’s standard product offering and the company’s production capabilities, Langley selected a popular Seem luminaire to create the ideal illumination in the open collaboration area. “We knew the luminaires would need to seamlessly integrate with the existing parameters of the ceiling panels. At the time, we originally looked at using Seem 4 luminaires, then Seem 2 LED was released to the market. We elected to use it because its narrow 2.5\" aperture enabled improved integration with the ceiling panels,” stated Langley.\r\n\r\nAs the Focal Point team began to better understand the goal of the design, they became very involved in looking at how they could modify the existing product to create this continuous luminaire that worked together with the ceiling system.\r\n\r\nThe engineering and fabrication challenges of this complex design fueled the Focal Point engineering team. “We had not seen a design like this before, let alone with this newer product. We knew there would be challenges but the team was determined to find a solution,” recalled Alan Bond, Engineering Development Leader at Focal Point, LLC. Keeping in constant communication with Langley allowed Focal Point to ensure the desired aesthetic was achieved.\r\n\r\n“Over the course of several months, I worked closely with the Focal Point Engineering team, going through a few iterations of how to engineer and fabricate the system,” recalled Langley.\r\n\r\n“The team’s commitment to ensuring all the particulars were covered was refreshing and ultimately enabled a seamless execution,” commented Langley. Their attention to detail allowed the Focal Point team to deliver a luminaire that impressed the Walker School leaders, parents, and students alike. “Everybody is overwhelmed by the space, and the light fixtures and ceilings in both areas are clearly the two show pieces of the building.” Continuing to reflect on the outcome and collaboration with Focal Point, Mascheri added: “We enjoyed the process and creativity with Focal Point’s engineering team. It is great to know that Focal Point has the capabilities to modify any of their luminaires to meet the design need or intent.”\r\n\r\nLangley further emphasized the impact of the design stating: “the new science and technology focused building didn’t just resolve the need for an educational space but, it also elevated the school in a very competitive educational market.”\r\n\r\nIn the end, the new facility delivers a dynamic environment to support the best possible learning experience for the students while contributing to future growth, setting Walker school as a benchmark for excellence.\r\n\r\n\r\nArchitect: Chapman Coyle Chapman & Associates Architects\r\n\r\nElectrical Engineer: Conway-Owen Consulting Engineers\r\n\r\nPhotographer: Ken Langley', 'https://www.focalpointlights.com/gallery/open-office#overlay=modal-overlay/5792', 'Focal-Point-Lights-The-Walker-School_small.jpg', 'Focal Point Lights The Walker School', 'The Walker School, Marietta, GA, United States', 'Project The Walker School is located in Marietta, GA, United States.

(1183, 'FOP011', 45, 'AIA Dallas', 'Dallas, TX, Unites States', 'Texas-size project inspires local Dallas architecture and design community\r\n\r\nFocused on serving as a resource for those interested in architecture and design in the Dallas area, the American Institute of Architects (AIA Dallas) and the Architecture and Design Foundation (formerly DCFA) converged in a new space to form AD EX, the Architecture and Design Exchange. To create a space that supports their mission – to be the hub for conversations and ideas about how to make the city better through architecture and design – the organizations decided to move to a central location in an older downtown building in the epicenter of the popular city.\r\n\r\nWith the intent to deliver a multi-use environment that could serve both the public and the local architecture and design community while showcasing the latest in innovative interior products and materials, AIA Dallas commissioned Omniplan to redesign the approximately 26,000 square foot, 2-story space.\r\n\r\n“The client wanted a space that was extremely flexible. It was our task to rethink the layout of the space to make it open, inviting, and to allow for flexibility of use,” stated Connor Peirce, Senior Associate at Omniplan in Dallas.\r\n\r\nIt was important for the team to fully understand the intent of each area, especially with the quick buildout timeline of less than a year. The first floor is for public-facing programs, including a Design Learning Lab for hosting school groups, workshops, meetings or other private and public events. The entry way also includes a reception area which houses the Downtown Dallas Inc.’s neighborhood center.\r\n\r\nThe second floor is designed for the new AIA Dallas headquarters consisting of administrative offices, a membership lounge, and conference rooms. In understanding the requirements, the exploration of manufacturers that could support lighting product needs and meet the tight timelines led to working with Chicago-based Focal Point.\r\n\r\n\r\nConstraints of an existing space\r\n\r\nWorking within the parameters of the existing space was a challenge, especially with limitations which included an odd-shaped layout, large amounts of glass, and low ceilings. Taking these elements into consideration, Omniplan was tasked with creating a space that felt cohesive and could be used as one large space or multiple smaller areas.\r\n\r\nUltimately, Omniplan settled on using the ceiling plane as the vehicle to bring continuity to the entire space. To do so, the existing low ceiling was removed, exposing the open ceiling structure. By removing the unforgiving ceiling tiles, Omniplan was able to answer the need for a more open environment. However, this also caused acoustical issues.\r\n\r\n“With so much steel and glass, we had to be creative in addressing how we could acoustically isolate these spaces,” said Peirce. “We knew we needed an acoustic solution. The question we had to ask was, how can we do it in a way that this could be replicated in many different spaces? It would help define the ceiling plane and would provide organization to each space individually, but also deliver continuity,” said Peirce.\r\n\r\n\r\nAn integrated system solution\r\n\r\nHossley Lighting Associates. The system was newly released to the market and is specifically designed to improve human comfort and resolve noise issues while providing the required illumination levels in commercial environments.\r\n\r\n“Using Seem 1 Acoustic was a way for us to showcase products that were emerging in the market and were relevant to what we needed. It also helped us achieve the cleanliness of having one system to answer both lighting and acoustics,” explained Peirce.   \r\n\r\nDetermining the details of the flexible system required close collaboration with Hossley Lighting Associates and Focal Point’s Acoustic Solutions team, who provided design and layout assistance. Additionally, an acoustic analysis of the entire space yielded a .85 second reverberation time (RT) in the training room and a 1.05 seconds RT in the event space area. Using this information, it was determined that forty continuous runs of 12\" tall Seem 1 Acoustic luminaires – with direct illumination and unlit acoustic baffles with one foot on-center spacing – would be used across both spaces.\r\n\r\nUsing Seem 1 Acoustic across the two rooms and incorporating a moveable partition permitted Omniplan to create a unified space for large events and smaller individual areas for focused work. “The fixtures in both spaces rendered a coherent solution while creating intimacy because it is the defining factor of the ceiling plan,” stated Peirce.\r\n\r\nPeirce said the flexibility of the system was a driving factor for Omniplan to select Focal Point’s luminaire and baffle system, which is available in individual lengths and continuous runs with nominal housing heights of 8\", 12\", and 16\". Ultimately, the flexibility of the system contributed to an approximately 30% reduction in reverberation time in both the event space and training room, which is a noticeable audible reduction in echoing.\r\n\r\nThe Seem 1 Acoustic luminaire and baffle system was also selected for the second-floor multi-use conference room, which is framed by glass walls on three sides. Due to the abundance of hard surfaces, rows of 12\" tall illuminated and non-illuminated Seem 1 Acoustic with one foot on-center spacing were installed.\r\n\r\nRather than using a standard linear layout, Omniplan created a unique design. The baffles on the left- and right-hand sides of the room were lowered compared to those in the center of the room to create a coffered ceiling effect. The dynamic design elevated the aesthetic, producing a statement piece while reducing noise levels. To achieve the optimal acoustic comfort, other acoustic treatments were also used in the space, such as wall panels and carpet.\r\n\r\nFurther explaining the reasoning behind the selection of an integrated luminaire and baffle system, Peirce said: “We were working with odd-shaped spaces and needed to fine-tune the lengths. Seem 1 Acoustic was able to provide that. I don’t think we would have been able to find another system that could do that in such a clean way. The Seem 1 Acoustic luminaire and baffle system had the linearity that we were looking for in terms of the orientation of the space, and it also addressed our acoustic concerns as a way to inform the movement throughout the space.”\r\n\r\nHe also voiced the design team’s concern that selecting lighting and acoustic options from multiple manufacturers may have made the space feel disjointed.\r\n\r\nPeirce summarized the project and the use of Seem 1 Acoustic by saying: “This is the way the market is moving; it’s a design aesthetic people are looking for. It was a no-brainer for us to go that route, and it also helped us achieve the cleanliness of having one system solve both lighting and acoustical needs.”\r\n\r\nDespite the unique constraints posed by transforming this irregular space, Omniplan was able to successfully deliver a functional, versatile environment that displayed the latest innovative products and materials. It provides the local architecture and design community with a central location for meetings and collaboration sessions, and a hub to draw inspiration from for future projects.\r\n\r\nPeirce said it also is making an impact in terms of its aesthetic quality, and that the client and users have expressed their appreciation of the conference room and lecture spaces. As a member of a few AIA committees, he also has the privilege of experiencing the space first-hand and receiving feedback from other specifiers using the space.\r\n\r\nDuring his visits to the AD EX, Peirce has received inquiries about the Seem 1 Acoustic system from architecture and design community members. AIA St. Louis has also decided to install the Seem 1 Acoustic luminaire and baffle system into its new office, which is expected to be completed later this year.\r\n\r\nAs the Communications and Government Relations Director for AIA Dallas, Katie Hitt uses the second-floor conference room regularly. Commenting on the completed space, she remarked, “There have been several compliments of the baffles in the boardroom. I’ve worked with several of the design-focused committees and the baffles seem to be a favorite feature of the space.”', 'https://www.focalpointlights.com/gallery/open-office#overlay=modal-overlay/5791', 'Focal-Point-Lights-AIA-Dallas_small.jpg', 'Focal Point Lights  AIA Dallas', 'AIA Dallas, Texas, Unites States', 'Project AIA Dallas is located in Dallas, Texas, Unites States.

The objective of the lighting design was to illuminate and highlight the steel diamond shaped roof above.\r\n\r\nBefore acdc luminaires were chosen for the project, a series of night time mock ups took place. It was during these tests that the architects’ vision was realised.\r\n\r\n\r\nOvercoming the obstacles\r\n\r\nThe shape of the roof and the material used were the most important aspects of the project. As metal reflects light like a mirror, it was critical that beam angles and the orientation of spotlights were accurate to avoid areas of darkness and unnecessary glare.\r\n\r\nThe plans did not include any integration systems for the roof, so luminaires had to be compact and discreet.\r\n\r\n\r\nPLAZA performs\r\n\r\nacdc’s PLAZA 35 in a custom RAL finish matching the metallic beam structure was the product of choice.

(1202, 'TRG018', 66, 'The Cathedral of Santo Eccehomo', 'Valledupar, Colombia', 'The new Cathedral of Santo Eccehomo, the largest church in Colombia, was built to give the constantly expanding archdiocese of Valledupar a structure that could house the thousands of worshipers that gather here to take part in important services. \r\n\r\nThe architect Gustavo Vasquez, commissioned in 2013 to design the new Cathedral, has created a space that can seat around 4000 people with modern architecture that maintains a strong religious identity. Vasquez’s project symbolically expresses the ascension of all believers from the underworld towards God in Heaven. On the façade the architect has placed large vertical buttress walls that represent the 7 sacraments of the catholic faith. Moving from the outside towards the centre the walls get higher and higher to culminate in a bell tower where the imposing crucifix is located. The church, which has a central-plan design is composed of a large space of around 60 metres wide where worshipers can gather around the Diocesan Bishop and the altar where Mass is celebrated. As in most modern churches even in the Cathedral in Valledupar the space is filled with light. The relationship between architecture and natural light is extremely important and is a fundamental part of the project. Eleven stained glass windows that represent Christian faith and Vallenato culture allow light to flood in. There are also large windows on the external walls which guide the light to the central body of the church thus minimising the need for artificial light.\r\n\r\nThe lighting concept was developed taking into account the important role the Cathedral plays as host to the most important religious services in the country. It focuses on integrating natural and artificial light, enhancing the architecture and the possibility of creating different lighting scenes based on different liturgical functions. This last requirement was answered by using a DALI control system that can create and recall different scenes depending on the event in question. This also allowed for substantial energy savings and makes it easier to manage for users.\r\n\r\nIndoor\r\nInside the Cathedral is made up of a main body, a chapel and the Baptistry. The main body is flooded with light with large windows around the perimeter and on the ceiling. It is an immense, neutral space where artificial light is used to accompany the various liturgical functions and to focus attention on the altar area which appears as a sort of scenographic backdrop. The different lighting systems used are mostly hidden from view.  The scenographic lighting that highlights the vertical surfaces along the back wall of the altar is obtained by using LED strips installed on custom-made profiles placed along the entire perimeter. The grazing effect highlights the texture of the surface giving it a strong materiality and emphasises the clear and precise alternation between full and empty spaces. The only visible fixtures are miniaturised STORE MINI projectors which are recessed into the ceiling that ensure general lighting in the church body, on the altar and the sculptures. The low luminance of their optical system allows for controlled lighting despite the high installation height.\r\n\r\nOutdoor\r\nLighting on the outside is sober and solemn and enhances the three-dimensionality of the architecture without having any visible fixtures. The resulting natural depth and three-dimensionality is obtained using a play of reflections.  A single linear projector with a grazing optic is fixed to the base of the wall behind each vertical buttress wall in order to light the entire height of the surface it is installed on and the overhanging portico.  The vertical walls become large reflective surfaces that light the large walls in front of them in a soft, uniform way. The result is an alternation of full and empty spaces where the architecture acquires a natural depth.  The colourful stained glass windows which during the day irradiate coloured light inwards, at night   spread the artificial light emitted by linear projector towards the outside; an inviting and welcoming message to the community. The main entrance is marked by a double LED strip on both sides that, like a guiding light accompanies visitors on their spiritual journey. The large flight of steps at the entrance is lit using small version step-marker fixtures from the  ZEDGE range that have the same finish as the stones used on the steps to ensure total integration of light and architecture.\r\n\r\n\r\nYEAR: 2019\r\n\r\nARCHITECT: Gustavo Vasquez\r\n\r\nPHOTOGRAPHER: Sebastian Franco\r\n\r\nELECTRICAL ENGINEER: Schaller Tech', 'http://www.targetti.com/en/Projects/the-cathedral-of-santo-eccehomo', 'Targetti-The-Cathedral-of-Santo-Eccehomo_small.jpg', 'Targetti The Cathedral of Santo Eccehomo', 'The Cathedral of Santo Eccehomo, Valledupar, Colombia', 'Project The Cathedral of Santo Eccehomo is located in Valledupar, Colombia.

At least three lanes run in each direction as well as breakdown lanes and several approaches and exits. Between 100,000 and 150,000 cars use the Kaisermühlentunnel on a daily basis. Problems on this important arterial road inevitably lead to traffic collapse in the Austrian capital. After almost 28 years of continuous operation, the operating company Asfinag initiated a large-scale refurbishment project for the Kaisermühlentunnel—a delicate topic for a traffic hub. Only individual lanes were thus closed, if at all, and especially at night when traffic density was low. \"For us as lighting partners, this meant that we had to deliver precisely the right quantities of luminaires just in time to ensure smooth project progress,\" stated Günther Weinlich, Project Manager at SITECO.\r\n\r\n\r\nA tunnel with eyes and ears\r\n\r\nWhat makes the \"new\" Kaisermühlentunnel so special is its sophisticated safety concept. A total of 188 video cameras and 91 microphones serve as the tunnel\'s eyes and ears. They respond to unusual processes and sounds—the banging of a car door, squeaking tires, a collision or voices. Sensors measure temperatures and air values. All information comes together in a central control station in the \"AKUT\" alarm system. Only 23 other tunnels currently have this emergency system which is capable of reducing alarm times by a good four minutes and immediately initiating emergency operation or even closure. In Vienna, the central BUS control communicates not only with ventilation, speed displays and such systems but also with the lighting. In the event of danger for example, the lighting is automatically raised to the highest level. \"With its current safety features we can well say that the Kaisermühlentunnel is one of the safest in Europe,\" said a convinced Kurt Portschy, Division Manager at Asfinag.\r\n\r\n\r\nImproved lighting level for greater safety\r\n\r\nAround 1,600 TL 31 LED tunnel luminaires from SITECO were installed during the upgrading project. These replace the former lighting consisting of sodium vapor lamps (SON). \"The new solution generates eight times the illuminance with roughly the same electricity costs,\" explained Weinlich. Possible savings potential was not the decisive factor, but rather improved brightness levels and maximum safety in the tunnel. In the past, special hazard zones such as portals and exits were marked by a change in light color. \"That\'s no longer needed today. We have such high lighting levels throughout the tunnel that best visibility is everywhere,\" informed Weinlich. Best vision and best visual comfort, because the lighting in the Kaisermühlentunnel also helps to adapt the eye to the visibility conditions in the tunnel. Luminance cameras measure the brightness in front of the tunnel and regulate illuminance inside the tunnel accordingly—a further contribution to road safety.\r\n\r\n\r\nSmooth processes thanks to a customer-specific solution\r\n\r\nAsfinag invested 40 million euros in the two-year refurbishment. SITECO not only provided the new LED tunnel lighting, but also unburdened the operator in terms of lighting design and commissioning as well as final documentation and staff training. In addition, an alternative mounting for the luminaires was developed especially for the Kaisermühlentunnel, saving installation time and complexity in the client\'s interest. Günther Weinlich: \"In the Kaisermühlentunnel there was already a cable route on the ceiling. It made perfect sense to use this instead of adjacently placing new installation points.\" For this reason the installed tunnel luminaires were quickly equipped with a new mounting option—and also on time. The upgrading measures to the Kaisermühlentunnel were completed at the end of 2018. Only final system checks took place in the first quarter of 2019.', 'https://www.siteco.com/en/applications/references/kaisermuehlentunnel-wien', 'Siteco-Kaisermühlentunnel_small.jpg', 'Siteco Kaisermühlentunnel', 'Kaisermühlentunnel, Vienna, Austria', 'Project Kaisermühlentunnel is located in Vienna, Austria.

The seven-storey building asserts its presence nonchalantly in the urban landscape, even in the shadow of the Upper West and Waldorf Astoria high-rise buildings opposite. WE-EF luminaires emphasise this architectural quality at night-time too.\r\n\r\nFor the prominent location of Zoom, Hascher Jehle Architects designed a structure with a rounded façade at the corner of Kantstraße/ Joachimsthaler Straße that contrasts as a restful element with the horizontal levels that protrude to varying degrees. The lighting concept of the Berlin lighting design office, Lichtvision, takes its cues from this dynamic design with its emphasis on the horizontal with horizontal light bands offset to one another on the upper floors. The strips of light are produced from the illumination of the window soffits in selected areas as well as from the illumination all the way around the roof crown that is set a little way back.\r\n\r\nFLC121 projectors create the bright crown for Zoom. They are placed all around the base of the superstructure on the flat roof. The luminaires with a connected wattage of only 12 watts emit warm white light with a colour temperature of 3,000 K onto the lamella cladding. In order to achieve uniform light distribution on the surface, even though the light is emitted relatively closely, the medium beam projectors are fitted with linear spread lenses. They widen the beam angle in the horizontal plane.\r\n\r\nETC110 inground luminaires illuminate the window soffits. Among other features, their precise beam characteristics make them ideal for the project. The symmetric, very narrow beam, ‘sharp cut-off’ light distribution in particularly is precisely defined. Sharp edges prevent scattered light, which could disturb the people in the rooms behind the façade. The efficiency (connected load of just 2 watts) and the high-quality design (5CE corrosion protection) were further reasons for choosing the ETC110 luminaires.

(1211, 'IGZ034', 65, 'The Sferisterio', 'Macerata, Italy', 'Dynamic, coloured lighting to make the whole town a stage.\r\n\r\nThe Sferisterio is a building in Macerata that was designed by the young architect, Ireneo Aleandri, for the Italian sport of pallone col bracciale (a ball game popular in Italy in the mid-19th century, played with a wooden cylinder over the forearm) and opened in 1829. In the years that followed, the building’s elegant structure with its neoclassical colonnade, high straight wall and large open central area made it the ideal location for fulfilling the dream of Count Pier Alberto Conti who wanted to stage Giuseppe Verdi’s Aida in Macerata. The count therefore financed the refurbishment of the Sferisterio, which included the construction of a large stage and the opening of a central door in the long wall that is still used today. On July 27th 1921, Aida was staged to great acclaim. 17 replicas followed that first performance and ten thousand people from all over Italy came to see it. The following year, however, this success was not repeated and opera performances were temporarily suspended and only continued in 1967 after the interruption of the Second World War.\r\n\r\nIn that year, the Marches-born Carlo Perucci was named artistic director and under his supervision, which lasted twenty-eight years, a number of changes were made, including new furnishings, a new lighting system and the opening of three arches at the back of the stage. Perucci also ushered in a new period of successful performances that has continued up until the present day. The Sferisterio’s excellent natural acoustics and large stage make it an ideal location for all kinds of music, especially opera, as numerous historic performances have demonstrated, including Ken Russell’s La Bohéme in 1984, Josef Svoboda’s famous “mirror” La Traviata in 1992 and Hugo De Ana’s Turandot in 1996.\r\n\r\nIn all this time, however, the building has never had a specific outdoor architectural lighting system, an oversight that the local authorities decided to put right with their “Beauty plan” for the town that included a review of its lighting systems, starting from a number of key locations. The responsibility for carrying out the plan for Macerata was entrusted to the town’s Fine Arts Academy and was based on an analysis of what already existed. The plan began with the illumination of the Sferisterio and the new lighting system was unveiled on the same day as the opening of the Macerata Opera Festival.\r\n\r\nThe lighting system developed for the Sferisterio is designed to highlight the architectural value of the building and the surrounding area, which includes the Porta Mercato Gate, the roundabout it overlooks, which is closed to traffic during performances and turned into a pedestrian plaza, and Corso Cairoli, the wide avenue that leads up to it. The analysis conducted by the Academy revealed how the existing lighting did not enhance this area of the town at all, as the Porta Mercato Gate and the Sferisterio were not illuminated, apart from the Sferisterio loggia.\r\n\r\nTo remedy this situation, the Academy design team, headed by Francesca Cecarini, divided the Sferisterio into horizontal strips, in line with its architectural design and then focused the lighting on differentiating the light and shadow zones to create a rhythm along the whole perimeter of the building.\r\n\r\nTo highlight the stonework, Linealuce luminaires with a wall grazing effect and 3000 K high colour rendering were mounted on the string courses according to the cadence of the windows. On the façade, this type of effect was then integrated with the light projected by a series of Palco InOut luminaires mounted on the surrounding buildings to create a soft final effect with no excessive contrasts of luminance.\r\n\r\nTo differentiate the portico, on the other hand, subtle colour temperature contrasts were created using surface-mounted Laser Blade inOut luminaires positioned on the tie rods, Linealuce Mini 47 luminaires recessed in the pavement and 2700 K colour temperature Palco In Out projectors installed on the capitals of the pilasters. The same differentiation technique was used for the Porta Mercato Gate. For the exteriors, recessed 3000 K luminaires were installed at the foot of the columns to emphasize their height, while the inside of the round-headed arches was uplit with a grazing effect by 2700 K Linealuce Mini 47 luminaires.\r\n\r\nFor the Sferisterio, the luminaires use RGBW technology and are operated by a DMX/RGB control system to offer coloured lighting for special effects or to recall, during operas, the colour motif for each festival, which in 2019 is red and in 2020 will be white. The entire system is flow adjustable, so the intensity of each luminaire’s individual light flow can be dimmed, if necessary. The first stage of lighting intervention also included Corso Cairoli, the avenue that leads up to the Sferisterio and has the Porta Mercato Gate as a backdrop. The avenue has a mixture of pedestrian and vehicular traffic (one-way apart from the last stretch from Piazza Nazario Sauro). The previous lighting system supplied a very poor quantity and quality of light. Its pole-mounted spheres had no flow control and created an uncomfortable glare effect (including on the façades of the buildings in the street), a waste of energy and a significant degree of light pollution. The lamps also used a neutral white colour temperature that created no light atmosphere whatsoever and did not enable the street and the “backdrop” of the Porta Market Gate to be viewed in comfort. While respecting the previous quinconce installation, the new Platea Pro luminaires installed have a colour temperature of 3000 K and are fitted with a Comfort street optic that is particularly suited to pedestrian areas. The result is a homogeneous effect on the road surface, zero light pollution and an improved general perception of the area as the luminaires’ special weathered steel finish allows them to blend into the environment perfectly.\r\n\r\n\r\nYear: 2019\r\n\r\nClient: Municipality of Macerata\r\n\r\nLighting project: Macerata Fine Arts Academy Lighting Design course Francesca Cecarini; Mascia Ignazi\r\n\r\nSystems: Atlantico\r\n\r\nVideo production: multivideo\r\n\r\nPhotographer: iGuzzini Archive', 'https://www.iguzzini.com/projects/project-gallery/the-sferisterio-dynamic,-coloured-lighting-to-make-the-whole-town-a-stage/', 'iGuzzini-The-Sferisterio_small.jpg', 'iGuzzini The Sferisterio', 'The Sferisterio, Macerata, Italy', 'Project The Sferisterio is located in Macerata, Italy.

To provide an open parking structure that was both utilitarian and aesthetically pleasing among the surrounding facilities located at the heart of downtown Tulsa. As part of this build, it was essential that the exterior garage lighting be prominent, so First Tower Place teamed with Cyntergy Engineering to make this happen.\r\n\r\nTo create the desired dramatic façade effects, Traxon’s Washer Quattro RGBW and e:cue’s lighting controls were selected as the buildings’ lighting system. The Washer Quattro RGBW, with a tight optic, highlights the painted aluminum fins that are vertically mounted outside the garage, while also showcasing the word TULSA that is etched into the fins over the garage entrance.\r\n\r\nIn this case, fixture selection, as well as fixture placement, were paramount in enhancing the varying widths, depths, and spacing of the fins, while limiting the glare and light trespass onto adjacent buildings.', 'https://www.osram.us/traxon/projects/traxon/first-place-garage/index.jsp', 'Osram-First-Place-Tower-Parking-Garage_small.jpg', 'Osram First Place Tower Parking Garage', 'First Place Tower Parking Garage, Tulsa, OK, USA', 'Project First Place Tower Parking Garage is located in Tulsa, OK, USA.

So began a story that grew out of bankruptcy and culminated in the creation of Café Royal a true London legend. Thanks to its position, between Regent Street and Piccadilly Circus, during the twentieth century, Café Royal was the epicenter of fashionable London, welcoming leading personalities, writers like Oscar Wilde and Conan Doyle, rock stars like Rolling Stones, Lou Reed and David Bowie, actors, sportsmen and famous names like Liz Taylor, Brigitte Bardot, Muhammed Ali and Lady Diana, and was a legendary and iconic landmark of the social scene of the English capital.\r\n\r\nMULTIFORME® in collaboration with Poliform took part in this important project developed by the archistar Sir David Chipperfield for the furnishings and lighting of the historic Ten Room, lobby and restaurant. In particular, our staff, shoulder to shoulder with the Poliform Contract division team, developed the engineering of the chandeliers for this luxury hotel: starting from the study of the historic images necessary for a stylistic reconstruction faithful to the Deco style light points that characterize the furnishings, we realized big custom chandeliers in Murano glass that illuminate the generous spaces of the rooms.\r\n\r\nAs soon as you enter the hotel, you are welcomed into an elegant and refined environment, with pastel colors, gold and multiplied by the many mirrors on the walls in a game of repetition of spaces and symmetries. The relaxation and conversation areas are different and characterized by comfortable armchairs and sofas in precious fabrics such as velvet and leather. The large Murano glass custom chandeliers made by MULTIFORME® have a particular geometry realized by repetition of elements in opalescent silk artistic glass.In the chandeliers of this hotel, audio speakers are housed for the distribution of music all around.\r\n\r\nThe gallery of the Ten Room restaurant overlooks the full-height space of the large central hall. The furnishings and materials, such as the precious marbles in shades of gray and white, as well as the seats and upholstery in red leather and tobacco are illuminated by two big style ceiling chandeliers with those of the lower level, but made with amplified dimensions. On the balustrades there are still other models of custom chandeliers in Murano glass, special lighting fixtures in the shape of a printed glass silk cap and framed by important bronze-cast borders: works aesthetically inspired by the period originals present in the Ten Room and the result of a demanding artisan work given the large size of the glass and the special glass techniques and equipment developed to make them and install them.\r\n\r\nFor us at MULTIFORME® the Cafe Royal in London is a source of great pride as it is developed in one of the most exclusive places in London and Europe for one of the most important luxury hotel chains in the world, in synergy with great designers like David Chipperfield Architects and important companies like Poliform Contract division.

This move would also play a role in the brand building strategy. The choice fell on a very unique building on Kungsholmen with a history of housing innovation and entrepreneurship.\r\n\r\nKnown as Dykaren 10 and owned by the property developer Humlegården the building itself was inaugurated in 1899. It initially served as a production and mechanical workshop for Arehns Mekaniska Verkstad owned by engineer Gerhard Arehn who started his business by producing matchboxes, including the machines that did the job. This was a huge innovation. The company became one of the pillars in what today is more known as Swedish Match.\r\n\r\nThe property developer Humlegården did a fantastic job in restoring and preserving the unique industrial feel of the building and bringing back some of the old charm in a new suit. Nordnet passed on the mission to the architectural firm Codesign. The goal was to create a conceptual atmosphere where more than 400 employees would easily have a sense of orientation regardless of where they were located in the building, which stretches over 6700 sqm office space on five separate floors. Codesign worked hard to create a natural flow with the help of different elements towards a core of the building. Of course, lighting was a vital element in order to achieve this flow.\r\n\r\nTo achieve their vision Codesign decided to take a rather different approach to the implementation of the office lighting: the idea was that all light should seem to emerge from the core of the building, like a continuous sunray of light.\r\n\r\nWaldmann in collaboration with the interior design company Inventia was selected as the supplier for this vision in a harsh competition with strong players such as Fagerhult, Zumtobel Group and Glamox.\r\n\r\n750 pcs of IDOO.line luminaires (single units) were chosen as the perfect lighting solution in order to create the sunray vision of the design. As one can easily imagine this was not a 2-hour standard lighting calculation job in order to achieve the desired result. Countless hours of hard work and expertise by the Waldmann team went into perfecting the lighting calculations for this “unorthodox” alignment of the luminaries. The result was very successful. The installation itself resulted in 1,5 km of IDOO.line and was carried out beautifully by the installer company Midroc in Stockholm.\r\n\r\nEven though industrial “production processes” nowadays are in the digital world it is hard not to appreciate the fact that even though we are talking about Waldmann office lighting there is still a strong connection to the wings of history in this building and its industrial flare.\r\n\r\n\r\nLighting solution: IDOO.line', 'https://www.waldmann.com/home/office/references/nordnet~e6.en.html', 'Waldmann-Nordnet-Bank-AB_small.jpg', 'Waldmann Nordnet Bank AB', 'Nordnet Bank AB, Stockholm, Sweden', 'Project Nordnet Bank AB is located in Stockholm, Sweden.

(1222, 'ALT007', 178, 'The Star District', 'Frisco, Texas, USA', 'Dramatic overhead lighting pays homage to Dallas Cowboys’ Ring of Honor at The Star District\r\n\r\nWith 35 restaurants, shops, and adjacent parking garages on two-levels, The Star District is a sophisticated Dallas Cowboys-themed retail complex. The district is located on the campus that houses the NFL team’s headquarters in Frisco, Texas. It is comprised of two buildings that flank the main drive leading to the Ford Center, an indoor athletics venue.\r\n\r\nO\'Brien Architects Dallas developed the overall master plan for The Star and specifically designed the entertainment district and parking garages. The architects brought in Henderson Engineers to work on the lighting scheme.\r\n\r\n“We took cues from the District’s layout and building design to create an upscale modern lighting experience,” said Kim Ilhardt, senior architectural lighting designer at Henderson Engineers.\r\n\r\nThe plaza in front of the District was a particular challenge. The street opens up at this juncture into what is known as the \"Ring of Honor.\" The Dallas Cowboys Football Club pays tribute to its outstanding former members in this striking architectural feature, so effectively lighting the signature space and busy traffic hub was vital.\r\n\r\nLarge sweeping roof canopies reach out over the Ring of Honor, adjacent sidewalk and street, creating a shelter above the plaza area. The architects challenged the lighting team to source overhead fixtures that appeared \"unseen and quiet.\"\r\n\r\nThe distinct architectural lines of the dramatic canopies inspired Ilhardt to select A-Light’s Accolade D3 linear lighting.\r\n\r\n“Accolade D3 was about the width of the canopy’s articulated reveal, enabling multiple linear fixtures to neatly fit within the canopy and appear as a simple continuous line,” said Ilhardt. “During the day the fixtures blend in with the silver canopy, and by night they present themselves as sleek lines of light that enhance the architectural importance of the district.”\r\n\r\nEach of the structural lines in the canopies is unique with respect to length and angle at the forward portion as it tilts upward over the plaza. A-Light’s Design Assist team customized the D3 luminaires to meet the lengths and angles required while maintaining the continuity of the linear illumination. Field coordination was also necessary to ensure that the fixtures fit perfectly.\r\n\r\nVisitors naturally congregate at the Ring of Honor, after walking out from the perimeter parking garages. Ilhardt therefore sought an ambient light source to deliver widespread general illumination from the high canopies.\r\n\r\nD3 provides a high-performance direct distribution of light using A-Light’s patented HE Tech™ lens. Light is pushed down to the sidewalks and retail entrances below, providing effective illumination for passersby. The fixtures also serve as an essential security feature, highlighting pedestrians crossing the main thoroughfare.\r\n\r\nBreezeways in each building continue the lighting design aesthetic with additional D3 installations. In this case, the linear fixtures are ceiling-mounted in a custom pattern over each escalator. They provide a wayfinding element, visually pulling people into the breezeway from the street.\r\n\r\nThe breezeways by design are partially covered and exposed to limited daylight. Certain light levels are required throughout the day and evening, though, to provide safe passage for retail visitors. A-Light integrated daylight sensors into the D3 luminaires so lighting can be increased, dimmed, or turned off as necessary.\r\n\r\nMoments of history and homages to the Dallas Cowboys successfully blend with upscale dining and shopping experiences at The Star District. From swooping lines to architectural accents, lighting contributes to a unique and memorable visit.\r\n\r\n“A-Light’s customization and great service were key to achieving our vision for this project,” said Ilhardt.\r\n\r\n\r\nPROJECT COMPLETION: April 2019\r\n\r\nARCHITECT: O’Brien Architects Dallas\r\n\r\nLIGHTING DESIGNER: Henderson Engineers\r\n\r\nA-LIGHT LIGHTING AGENT: ALA\r\n\r\nPHOTOGRAPHY: Parrish Ruiz de Valasco', 'https://www.alights.com/inspiration/the-star-district', 'a-Light-THE-STAR-DISTRICT_small.jpg', 'a Light The Star District', 'THE STAR DISTRICT, Frisco, Texas, USA', 'Project THE STAR DISTRICT is located in Frisco, Texas, USA.

(1228, 'HBL007', 244, 'Michael Best Law Firm', 'Washington D.C., USA', 'The Michael Best Law Firm is Using Lighting to Retain and Recruit the Best Legal Minds\r\n\r\nWhen it made the decision to relocate its Washington D.C. office, Michael Best LLC mapped out a laundry list of both critical and aspirational items it wanted to incorporate into the design of its new space. Being a firm that was growing its intellectual property book of business, it had first-hand knowledge of new and emerging technologies that could make the new space one of the most innovative, comfortable and appealing in the entire city.\r\n\r\nLED lighting controlled by color temperature tuning capabilities was at the top of the list. What began as an item on the wish list is now one of the first commercial office environments where SpectraSync™ Color Tuning Technology from Hubbell Control Solutions is being used.\r\n\r\n\r\nThe Location and Design\r\n\r\nMichael Best is a full-service global law firm with more than 250 lawyers and 13 different office locations across the United States. The firm serves regional, national and international corporations, as well as municipalities, trade associations, nonprofits, family trusts and individuals. Its clients range in size from small start-up ventures to global Fortune 500 companies in many different industries, and it has a long history of serving clients in the consumer and industrial products sectors. As those sectors evolve, its practice has grown to encompass a diverse range of technology and software clients.\r\n\r\nPreviously Michael Best had lawyers based at 602 Pennsylvania Avenue and the Strategies division operating at 801 Pennsylvania Avenue. The firm decided to consolidate operations at the new District Wharf development along the southwest waterfront.\r\n\r\nPreviously the D.C. historic fish market, The Wharf has been developed to become the city’s premiere meeting place, where restaurants, entertainment, events and the waterfront lifestyle beckon natives and visitors.\r\n\r\nTo attract and retain the best employees, Michael Best decided it would base its new office in 31,000 square feet of Class A office space at 1000 Maine, one of the first commercial office facilities built at The Wharf. Featuring impressive natural light and ten-foot floor-to-ceiling windows, the spaces within this commercial facility offer some of the best views of the city, the Potomac River and the nation’s landmarks.\r\n\r\n\r\nDesigning a Destination, Not Just an Office\r\n\r\nIn commercial environments, good design has become synonymous with talent hiring and retention. Being a design build, Michael Best realized it had a significant opportunity to incorporate many of the items from the wish list. With a keen understanding of the LED lighting marketplace, the firm decided it would integrate more than just cutting-edge luminaires into the design and added color temperature tuning (“CCT”) lighting technology to the spec list.\r\n\r\nAfter evaluating solid-state lighting (“SSL”) products and control systems from a number of vendors, the general contractor and Michael Best selected Hubbell Lighting as the luminaire and controls supplier. Hubbell’s local agent, One Source Associates, was tapped to develop a tunable SSL system that would meet the needs of varying light color and quality to provide employees ideal light while also meeting LEED requirements for energy efficiency.\r\n\r\nEven with an open office layout with many large windows and significant daylighting options, there would still be areas where employees don’t receive enough daylight due to factors such as season, cloud cover, desk orientation and window shade position. Research shows that occupants see real value in being able to control the lighting temperature in their spaces. By strategically integrating this technology into its design, the firm understood it would then be able to add to its already impressive list of perks for current and prospective employees.\r\n\r\nThese areas were targeted to benefit substantially with the SpectraSync solution.\r\n\r\n\r\nThe SpectraSync Experience and the Human Impact\r\n\r\nIn the private offices, occupants can adjust both intensity and color temperature of the Litecontrol MOD™ 2L Surface Direct fixtures with integrated SpectraSync technology based on need or preference. NX Distributed Intelligence™ CCT Switch Stations are equipped with four presets that can be customized in the field or utilized with default programming from the factory. One advantage of the presets – it provides the occupant with the proper color and intensity of light rather than an average light level or high CCT, without compromise to vertical illuminance.\r\n\r\nMichael Best elected to use the following presets:\r\n\r\n“Focus” – 5000K\r\n“Work” – 4200K\r\n“Normal” – 3500K\r\n“Calm” – 2700K\r\n\r\nAdditionally, the NX Specialty Switch Station provides employees with the ability to raise and lower the brightness of the lighting, as well as turn the lights on and off in a room or designated zone. This can be used in conjunction with the color tuning wall station and operates independently from the color control. This offers employees another level of dimming control they can select based on their mood, the requirements of work to be done in the space and daylighting conditions.\r\n\r\nBlythe Peelor, administration & operations manager for Michael Best, can set meeting spaces to cool lighting during business and warm lighting during a special social event. In addition to the Litecontrol MOD fixtures, Prescolite’s LF4 and Kurt Versen’s 5″ Round Xicato are used in common areas, conference rooms and the lobby.\r\n\r\nEmployees have the ability to adjust the SpectraSync-enabled luminaires in their offices, workspaces and conference rooms with the simple touch of a button. Employees can adjust the lighting to meet their personal preferences, enhance visibility, materials and colors or the aesthetics of the space.\r\n\r\nBecause the SpectraSync system runs on the NX Distributed Intelligence backbone, there’s opportunity for Michael Best to tweak the system and make updates as needed. Through its work with technology companies, Michael Best is aware that light does have an impact on people. Ongoing research is being facilitated to understand how light can affect human sleep cycles, health and productivity. For example, the integral NX sensors allow Michael Best to automatically adjust brightness levels to account for incoming natural light. Vacancy sensors are already being used to override control of all fixtures, enhancing the project’s efficiency.   \r\n\r\nNeither industry nor academia have fully converged a prescriptive approach for circadian lighting. A considerable amount of ongoing research is being conducted to identify how different intensities and colors affect people at a neurological level. It has been proven that adjusting office lighting to simulate changes in outdoor sunlight levels, based on the time of day, can enhance worker productivity. Both daylight, courtesy of Earth’s 24-hour light–dark cycle, and electric light can drive the human circadian system, internal clocks that regulate daily behaviors and the timing of biological processes, such as the release of the hormones melatonin and cortisol, which help control blood sugar and affect energy levels.\r\n\r\nIn August 2019, the University of Oregon published a whitepaper, “The Impact of Lighting and Views in the Workplace of the Future.” The paper concludes that daylighted spaces with controlled lighting and views can improve occupant well-being, workplace productivity, and satisfaction by positively influencing various physiological and psychological processes. The researchers concluded, “lighting and views also impact property value and employee recruitment and retention.”\r\n\r\nHowever intangible, the lighting solution that supports this office is seen as an advantage for Michael Best, since happier employees are more productive and more likely to stay in an organization. Anecdotal evidence shows employees are more comfortable based on their personal preferences.\r\n\r\nThis project demonstrates that light impacts people, and office space that is designed around the users of the space, rather than the space itself, can be a strategic asset. By getting the lighting right, it has become an environment everyone wants to spend time in.', 'https://resources.hubbelllighting.com/newsroom/their-space-their-personal-lighting-experience/', 'Hubbell-Michael-Best-Law-Firm_small.jpg', 'Hubbell  Michael Best Law Firm', 'Michael Best Law Firm, Washington D.C., USA', 'Project Michael Best Law Firm is located in Washington D.C., USA.

(1233, 'KTR001', 280, 'GOOGLE SHOREBIRD', 'Mountain View, CA, USA', 'What happens when a tech giant renowned for spectacular workspaces finds itself with three less-than-inspirational buildings? Architects Studio Sarah Willmer Architecture and Interiors teamed up with Sidell Pakravan Architects and rose to the challenge. They brought excitement to the space by creating a daring concept called the \"caterpillar\", which depended on lighting designer Melinda Morrison to bring it to life.\r\n\r\n\r\nDesign Goals\r\n\r\n1. Bring light and dynamism to a dark and lifeless space\r\n\r\n2. Link the three buildings and a wide range of spaces, from work stations and conference rooms to micro-kitchens, lounges and breakout areas\r\n\r\n3. Embody principles that honor the client’s commitment to biophilia\r\n\r\n4. Fulfill the needs of multiple users and stakeholders.\r\n\r\n\r\nChallenges\r\n\r\nThe nearly universal challenges of time and budget were amplified on this project due to the innovativeness of the team’s design solution — they had to quickly choose a technique to make something none of them had ever done before. Budget and building concerns also forced them to give up skylights, although Ketra’s high-quality, tunable lighting helped replicate the natural light they were seeking. The designers also struggled with the “too much of a good thing” paradox: because Ketra’s lighting offers an infinite range of color, the team had the positive challenge of landing on the perfect hues to provide the vibrant visual interest that they wanted, without veering into a Disneyland or Las Vegas type of feel. \r\n\r\n\r\nThe Solution\r\n\r\nTo link the spaces and foster a feeling of fluidity, the team came up with an innovative design form. A custom-crafted frame was covered in fabric and lit from within, creating a unique path guide. Because this “caterpillar” was intentionally not continuous and shifted in size for visual interest, consistent lighting seemed like an insurmountable task, until they discovered Ketra’s lighting. With its unparalleled light distribution, Ketra’s G2 Lamp proved to be the perfect solution. The uniform color wash and lack of hot spots produced by these lights ensured the continuous feel desired by the designers.\r\n\r\nBut the designers — and Ketra — didn’t stop there. Since skylights weren’t an option, the team did some “inside-the-box” thinking, and created eleven custom acrylic light boxes featuring 7’ runs of Ketra L4Rs in the negative space above breaks in the fabric sections. Taking advantage of Ketra’s superior control system and full range of color, these novel “skylights” automatically change hue throughout the day, incorporating the principles of biophilia in addition to signaling daily routines such as lunch hour and company shuttle departures. The designers also included a “party mode” program of light that incorporates red and rainbow colors. This bolder, more unique look is perfect for spotlighting special events such as all-hands meetings.\r\n\r\n\r\nResults\r\n\r\nKetra’s onsite technician facilitated a full range of light testing, enabling the design team to perfectly capture the look and feel they had envisioned during the project’s planning process. The result was a sophisticated, dynamic space that captured the company’s innovative essence while delighting building users with its functionality and beauty.\r\n\r\n\r\nLIGHTING DESIGNER: Melinda Morrison Lighting\r\n\r\nARCHITECT: Sarah Willmer Architecture\r\n\r\nARCHITECT: Sidell Pakravan Architects', 'https://www.ketra.com/lighting-design-projects/google-shorebird', 'Ketra-GOOGLE-SHOREBIRD_small.jpg', 'Ketra GOOGLE SHOREBIRD', 'GOOGLE SHOREBIRD, Mountain View, CA, USA', 'Project GOOGLE SHOREBIRD is located in Mountain View, CA, USA.

It was conceived as a helical sequence of glass and steel spaces that brings together the building’s interiors and the surrounding countryside.\r\n\r\nWhen visitors arrive, they walk in through the spacious foyer and then up along the helix. This path takes them through four floors featuring exhibition spaces focused on science and technology with interactive multimedia installations where young visitors can apply what they have learnt.\r\n\r\nThe themed areas on each floor are staggered and arranged in horseshoe formations centred on the building’s core and the helix leads visitors up to a panoramic terrace that offers splendid views over the entire Neckar valley. There is also an astronomic observatory and an auditorium on the roof. The museum is for children up to ten-years-old and it is designed to present natural sciences and technology in a way that is both fun and easy to understand.\r\n\r\nThe lighting design blends with the architecture designed by Sauerbruch Hutton and reinforces its image as a highly interesting and surprising space. The visitors’ path is circular, so it offers continuous changes of perspective linked to the building’s helical structure.\r\n\r\nVarious types of lighting have been used, like the system designed for the display areas and the one for visitor circulation in the communal areas.\r\n\r\nThe complete lighting for the display spaces and scenic areas in the communal areas features a track and projector system designed by the maierlighting studio to meet exhibition requirements that may vary. In some cases, large body Palco luminaires with medium and wide flood optics have been used according to the items on display. In other cases, round version View luminaires are used with a range of optics from super spot to wide flood. In the communal areas, View projectors, often paired and mounted on tracks are integrated with general lighting created by 10 and 15 cell Laser Blade High Contrast luminaires installed between the slats of the false ceiling designed by Licht Kunst Licht.\r\n\r\nIn both the exhibition spaces and communal areas the same effect present in the day is reproduced at night. In natural light the building is completely transparent and this homogeneous, diffuse effect is also created with the artificial lighting.\r\n\r\nParticular care has been taken over the colour temperatures used. The luminaires use 3000 K and 4000 K lamps and they all have DALI technology and are operated by a specific control system. This colour temperature differentiation allows various scenarios to be created as well as projecting the unique effect of the building onto the surrounding nocturnal landscape, so that an image of consistent and uniform architecture exists at night too.\r\n\r\n\r\nYear: 2019\r\n\r\nClient: Dieter Schwarz Foundation\r\n\r\nArchitectural project: Sauerbruch Hutton, Gesellschaft von Architekten\r\n\r\nLighting project: maierlighting, Licht Kunst Licht (communal areas)\r\n\r\nPhotographer: Roland Halbe, Ernesto Martens', 'https://www.iguzzini.com/projects/project-gallery/the-experimenta-science-center-extension/', 'iGuzzini-The-Experimenta-Science-Center-extension_small.jpg', 'iGuzzini The Experimenta Science Center extension', 'The Experimenta Science Center extension, Heilbronn, Germany', 'Project The Experimenta Science Center extension is located in Heilbronn, Germany.

Informed by seven years of research and rigorous analysis of environmental health impacts on people, Delos and its affiliates offer an array of innovative technology, consulting and design solutions for residential and commercial spaces. As the New York-based team started outgrowing their first home, Delos saw an opportunity to build a new headquarters that would exemplify this mission.\r\n\r\n\r\nDesign Goals\r\n\r\n1. Make the headquarters a showcase for Delos’ core wellness values and human-centric offerings.\r\n\r\n2. Give employees a truly adaptable space, offering a variety of work environments for different tasks.\r\n\r\n3. Give every employee access to natural light throughout the space.\r\n\r\n4. Pursue and achieve WELL Platinum, LEED Platinum, & the Living Building Challenge certifications.\r\n\r\n\r\nChallenges\r\n\r\nPursuing three separate building standards called for a high degree of collaboration between the designers, project managers and manufacturers. Janna Wandzilak, Director at Delos and the team’s go-to materials specialist carefully vetted close to 2,000 different products, speaking with manufacturers and studying their supply chains to conduct a rigorous evaluation against LEED and WELL certification requirements. Caitlin Toczko, Senior Lighting Designer at Atelier Ten led the team in tackling the various challenges of balancing the lighting features of WELL version 1 with the sustainability requirements of LEED version 4. Meticulous placement and calibration of Ketra’s tunable light sources were critical for balancing lighting power density (LPD) reduction for LEED with melanopic lux (EML) optimization for WELL.   \r\n\r\n\r\nWhy Delos Chose Ketra to Meet WELL\r\n\r\nThe WELL Building StandardTM was founded on seven concepts of wellbeing in the built environment. One of these concepts is lighting, which WELL version 1 organizes into 13 lighting “features.” Note: The WELL version 2 pilot is built on 10 concepts with features being evaluated as pre-conditions or optimizations.\r\n\r\nKetra’s high degree of tunability and control along with its pre-programmed Natural Light show offered a solution that tightly aligned with WELL’s lighting requirements. Caitlin Toczko, along with the Delos project team selected Ketra lighting because:\r\n\r\n1. The uniformity of color across Ketra’s individual diodes produces extremely high quality light output.\r\n\r\n2. The control system and individual addressability of each Ketra lamp fulfills a WELL feature requiring small control zones.\r\n\r\n3. Lighting designers can tune Ketra\'s spectral power distribution (SPD) and correlated color temperature (CCT) to meet WELL\'s EML requirement without increasing light intensity and power usage that could jeopardize LEED requirements.\r\n\r\n4. Post-installation adjustments for specific CCTs within distinct zones and rooms can be easily addressed from Ketra\'s mobile app to its wireless lighting system.\r\n\r\n5. Occupants have the flexibility to personalize the light around them as they see fit, providing them with the optimal environment for various tasks.\r\n\r\n\r\nA WELL Certified Space Filled with Natural Light\r\n\r\nTo meet WELL’s lighting feature requirements, the fixture layout was meticulously plotted to ensure luminaires were mounted in the best spots for employee workstations. In the open work area, daylight from surrounding windows fills the space while Ketra lamps and linear pendants mimic sunlight to extend natural light to every corner. Lamps are set to an astronomical timeclock to shift dynamically throughout the day, so employees feel more connected to the outdoors, and sensors are installed throughout the space so that indoor lighting dims in response to daylight. In meeting and training rooms, employees can override the natural show and personalize the light for collaboration, team presentations, or focused task work.\r\n\r\n\r\nResults\r\n\r\nIn pursuance of three separate building standards focused on sustainability, wellness, and productivity, Delos has created a home for their team that is efficient and optimized for employees, customers and guests. Whether it’s dark and cloudy or bright and sunny, Ketra’s lighting provides the right light at the right time of day.\r\n\r\n\r\nWELL V1 Lighting Credits Achieved by Delos with Ketra:\r\n\r\n-Feature 53 Visual Lighting Design\r\n\r\n-Feature 54 Circadian Lighting Design\r\n\r\n-Feature 55 Electric Light Glare Control\r\n\r\n-Feature 56 Solar Glare Control\r\n\r\n-Feature 57 Low-Glare Workstation Design\r\n\r\n-Feature 58 Color Quality\r\n\r\n-Feature 61 Right to Light\r\n\r\n-Feature 62 Daylight Modelling', 'https://www.ketra.com/lighting-design-projects/delos', 'Ketra-DELOS-HQ_small.jpg', 'Ketra DELOS HQ', 'DELOS HQ, New York, NY, United States', 'Project DELOS HQ is located in New York, NY, United States.

John Robertson Architects (JRA) worked with Zumtobel to improve the office lighting in the refurbishment of the building. The selection of SLOTLIGHT Infinity, CAELA and PANOS Infinity luminaires were important in meeting the design criteria for the renovation of this Grade II listed building and contributing to the building’s sustainability credentials.\r\n\r\nBracken House is now a contemporary workplace with an enhanced street presence, business lounge, state of the art office floors, and a spacious roof terrace. The previous architectural interventions have been unified, and by working with heritage consultants, the team were able to provide thoughtful additions which built upon earlier works, creating internal courtyards linking the main building and wings, and increasing natural daylight throughout the atrium. The offices have been completely modernised to create 270,000 sq ft of Grade-A office accommodation with state-of-the-art LED lighting from Zumtobel.\r\n\r\nA custom office lighting system was developed with the lighting specialist Zumtobel, using the ‘Slotlight Infinity’, seamless linear LED fittings, together with modular suspended metal ceilings arranged in a grid that aligns with the building’s exposed structure. With its linear design and high precision illumination, SLOTLIGHT Infinity provides an elegant and architecturally sophisticated solution, providing a continuous vein of light with no shadows that complements the unique design of the spaces. The lighting arrangement accentuates the structural arrangement of the central office floorplates seen from street level.\r\n\r\nIn the historic wings, CAELA, a modern version of the original bespoke circular light fittings, illuminates all office floors to maintain the original aesthetic in these areas. Pendant, surface mounted and recessed CAELA LED luminaires provide decorative highlights and adjust perfectly to the ambience of a particular space, adding an elegant and highly sophisticated touch to the new offices.  The ceiling levels have been raised to improve the floor to ceiling heights.\r\n\r\nPANOS Infinity luminaires blend into the architecture, providing a light approaching natural daylight, with pleasant colour temperatures and the option to adjust to an individual’s preference. With up to 135 lm/W and a high colour rendering of over 90, PANOS Infinity downlights are twice as efficient as conventional downlights and have the potential for energy savings of up to 70% with additional savings through lower maintenance costs.\r\n\r\nZemien Lee, Project Director at John Robertson Architects, commented “The success of the project lies in sustaining a 20th century icon, bringing it up to the quality standards of the best contemporary buildings, by carefully balancing conservation and progress to keep the original spirit of the design alive.

The lanes from the central Königsstraße towards the town hall with the park in front of it are illuminated in green, while the paths down to the Krückau River are highlighted by blue light.\r\n\r\nThe idea of adding striking lighting to accent the the pedestrian zone and adjacent lanes – called \"Gänge\" (corridors) in the north – with inground luminaires dates back to 2003. After 15 years in operation, the prior system was showing signs of ageing and failures, and the town decided to replace it. The project was realised by the Elmshorn municipal utilities. They chose ETV130 inground luminaires from WE-EF not only to replace, the lighting, but also to upgrade it both technically and in terms of design.\r\n\r\nThe luminaires are fitted with RGBW LEDs and have a DMX interface. This enables them to not only produce green and blue light, but also white light of all colour temperatures from warm white to cold white and an almost unlimited range of coloured light. There is also the option of colour changes or dynamic progression. In everyday operation, Elmshorn uses the colours blue and green, but for town festivals interest has been expressed in magenta, the town\'s signature colour, or a warm glow for the Advent season.\r\n\r\nA total of five lanes feature lines of light shining over a total length of around 75 metres, but in the form of a row of individual luminaires rather than as a continuous strip of light. In the course of the conversion work, the electrical installations were also replaced, and power cables and a control line were laid. The lines of light are now fed by the same mains supply as the street and area luminaires, and they switch on together every evening.\r\n\r\nIn terms of lighting technology, the ETV130 in the lanes of Elmshorn effortlessly meet all requirements. They produce a glare-free, linear symmetric medium beam distribution. The nominal luminous flux of 4,320 lumens generated by the luminaires, with a connected load of 33 watts, is dimmed to 30% in normal operation. Elmshorn therefore not only benefits from the sustainable investment in high-quality luminaires, but also from considerable energy savings compared to the previous solution that had a connected load of 48 watts.', 'https://www.weef.de/#!/int/project/elmshorn', 'We-ef-Lighting-Elmshorn_small.jpg', 'We-ef Lighting Elmshorn', 'Elmshorn, Schleswig-Holstein, Germany', 'Project Elmshorn is located in Schleswig-Holstein, Germany.

The main exhibition area, designed for large-scale artworks, is a column-free, 3,000 square feet space with 23 feet-high walls and a polished concrete floor. The ceiling comprises 28 trapezoidal board-formed concrete coffers, each housing a large skylight that provides diffused natural daylight, augmented by the large glass store front. The super waffle structure of the ceiling grid not only creates an architectural rhythm, but also allows maximum flexibility to subdivide the space in a variety of ways.\r\n\r\n\r\nIlluminated rooftop sculpture garden\r\n\r\nSitting on the skylight grid is a lush roof garden, designed by Future Green, which extends the visual plane of the adjacent High Line. It also creates a further 5,000 square feet of exhibition space, an elevated sculpture garden visible to the promenade’s six million annual visitors. At night, the space, which has a changing program of artworks, is illuminated by ERCO\'s powerful, glare-free and discreet Gecko fixtures with 12W LED, complemented by interior light from the skylights.\r\n\r\nInside, the natural light during the day is diffused using film on the skylights, creating an ambient backdrop without harsh shadows. This even wash is augmented by the artificial lighting, which also had to accommodate the wide spectrum of lighting requirements demanded by changing exhibits. To offer maximum flexibility, studioMDA designed a grid lighting system using ERCO\'s two-circuit track and highly adaptable Light Board range with adjustable, precision optics. The grid of the ceiling forms the framework for the recessed, dimmable linear LED light strip. This provides the general lighting, while the track system has an optimal mix of Light Board spotlights and wallwashers, their rectangular design echoing the ceiling geometry.\r\n\r\n\r\nMarriage of light and architecture\r\n\r\nCrucially, the lighting was considered very early on in the design process. A cove in the cast-in-place concrete ceiling was designed specifically for the fixtures to sit within, allowing a seamless integration of the lighting. \'It was imperative that the lighting was embedded within the grid of the ceiling,\' says studioMDA founder Markus Dochantschi. \'As with any gallery, it is critical to blend the lighting with the architecture, allowing both to fall to the background to grant precedence to the artwork.\'\r\n\r\n\r\nDifferent spatial experiences\r\n\r\nThe track system allows the number of fixtures to be adjusted, as well as the angle and the beam spread, so it can be tailored to the artwork exhibited. Each luminaire is individually dimmable. Due to the high ceiling in the gallery, studioMDA worked with ERCO’s team to ensure that the walls were precisely lit both in terms of height and width. It was also vital that changing configurations of the exhibition walls remained perfectly illuminated whatever their position. \'As a result, different spatial experiences are guaranteed for the audience visiting each exhibition,\' says Dochantschi.\r\n\r\n\'The specified lighting equipment provided an atmosphere to the space that was imperative for Kasmin Gallery,\' he continues. \'The Light Boards were chosen to provide an even wash of light along the walls, regardless of the height of the walls. Their interchangeable lenses makes this fixture ideal for gallery applications as it allows the space to adapt to any form of artwork being shown.\'\r\n\r\nThe latest in a long collaboration between Kasmin and studioMDA, the gallery design won a Jury Award in the 2019 Architizer A+ Awards.\r\n\r\n\r\nArchitecture: studioMDA, New York City/USA\r\n\r\nPhotography: Roland Halbe, Stuttgart/Germany\r\n\r\nClient: Kasmin Gallery, New York City/USA\r\n\r\nWebsite: www.kasmingallery.com', 'https://www.erco.com/projects/culture/kasmin-gallery-new-york-7103/en/', 'ERCO-Kasmin-Gallery-New-York_small.jpg', 'ERCO Kasmin Gallery New York', 'Kasmin Gallery New York, United States', 'Project Kasmin Gallery New York is located in New York, United States.

Being grade listed meant that the luminaire fixings had to be located in existing mortar lines to ensure no damage was done to the façade.\r\n\r\nINTEGREX allowed us to achieve the even and gradual wash of light onto the façade we wanted. 3000K warm white LEDs reflected the warm tone and bring out the texture within the brick work while acdc’s dual binning process gave us confidence that all products would be colour consistent, right across the façade, for both the IGLU and INTEGREX products.”\r\n\r\nThe overall effect is spectacular, yet elegant, with the façade forming creating the perfect backdrop against which the new square and station sit.', 'https://www.acdclighting.com/blog/kings-cross/', 'acdc-KINGS-CROSS_small.jpg', 'acdc KING\'S CROSS', 'KING\'S CROSS, London, United Kingdom', 'Project KING\'S CROSS is located in London, United Kingdom.

CASINO\r\n\r\nThe VISO Design Studio embarked on an ambitious customization project for the new Cascades Casino in Kamloops, British Columbia. The goal of this $34 million project was to create the world’s ultimate gaming and entertainment destination. Working with longtime partner mackaywong, VISO created several stunning custom lighting installations all around the property.\r\n\r\nGuests are welcomed at each entrance with three Moss light fixtures that express the playfulness and exuberance of the venue. As guests venture out on to the gaming floor, they will find six sets of oval rings. Each set has three rings gyrating inside one another at different angles and height. The largest ring in each set measures 20 feet on its longest axis. The complexity of the custom rings was in the wiring. In order to wire the controls, VISO had to send a technician up a 30-foot scissor lift and wire each individual light in the dark. Brooks Munroe, technical manager at VISO was onsite at the casino overlooking the installation and describes the process: “In order to wire the controls of the custom Oval Rings on the gaming floor, we had to climb a 30-foot scissor lift, poke our heads into the drop ceiling with flashlights on our construction hats and literally wired each individual light in relative darkness! The irony of the working in complete darkness to bring light to the finish product!”\r\n\r\nFor the Atlas Steak + Fish restaurant, located in the casino, VISO created 3 spectacular custom lighting fixtures. Over the bar, 88 sleek chrome modern twigs that resemble antlers are suspended under a mirrored canopy with recess spotlights. The bar is situated beside the main dining area which features the spectacular Amber Wave installation. This design features 1,156 drops of amber coloured glass disks separated by a clear glass spacer. The drops are arranged perfectly in 25 rows to simulate a wave measuring 396”/10,058mm wide by 216”/5,486mm long which took three days to install. VISO also supplied black Dome pendants for the banquets in the restaurant which adds a modern touch to the dining space.\r\n\r\nFor the private dining area, VISO created a large-scale decorative structure that resembles a fossilized pre-historic animal.

The clean lighting design helps draw attention to the product and enhance the customer experience.\r\n\r\nThe changing rooms were a crucial part of Fagerhult’s brief. The designers paid careful attention to improving customers’ experience by creating adjustable lighting.

(1269, 'BRO001', 281, 'TRADITIONAL BAKERY VREUGDENHIL', 'MAASDIJK, NETHERLANDS', 'The traditional bakery Vreugdenhil in Maasdijk (NL) focuses on quality and is growing organically – the space for this is created by an extension that interprets the values of the family business in a modern and appealing way. BÄRO lighting underlines the clear store concept\r\n\r\nMaasdijk is located between Rotterdam and the Hook of Holland ferry port. Surrounded by pastures and greenhouses, it has retained its small-town character. People buy their bread from the local baker, and ever since 1923 this has been Bakkerij Vreugdenhil – a family business with around 20 employees today. However, the family\'s ambitions go far beyond the borders of Maasdijk – but always following the principle of quality before quantity. In 2016, the bakery won the title of \"Best Bakery in the Netherlands\". After a comprehensive redesign and expansion, the store now also lives up to this title. The new extension with its pointed gable and brick façade blends harmoniously into the townscape. Inside, the store is surprisingly spacious and the design has a creative take on tradition.\r\n\r\n\r\nLight from a single source\r\n\r\nNatural-coloured wood and white plastered walls dominate in the high-quality shop architecture with its extremely clear design. The effective lighting carefully tailored to the room and the products on display plays a key role here. BÄRO advised the owners and interior designers on the lighting design and supplied the entire lighting technology as a coherent overall package from a single source: from the tracks to surface-mounted and recessed spotlights and decorative lighting. The result is impressive and creates an atmosphere where customers are pleased to linger and an attractive, sales-promoting presentation of the bakery and confectionery products.\r\n\r\nOwner Chris Vreugdenhil deliberately commissioned the design office King Kongs from Eindhoven as a design team with no experience of designing bakeries, but plenty of experience with restaurants and hotels – because he wanted the interior to keep its intimate atmosphere despite the 250 m2 of sales space while having a unique look and surpassing usual standards.\r\n\r\nThe interior concept divides the salesroom into different departments, while maintaining its openness and allowing a view all the way to the production rooms. Due to the rural location, the entire design is aimed less at casual customers and more at those who come specifically to the bakery and also make larger purchases.\r\n\r\n\r\nUnpretentious setting\r\n\r\nThe design of the new bakery reflects values such as quality and honesty. Unpretentious materials with natural colours and geometric, simple shapes have been perfectly crafted by local craftsmen: light and dark woods, a light grey stone floor with a nostalgic strip of tiles in front of the counters. The light and airy impression in the new bakery is created first and foremost by the high, open roof structure with visible beams that add a rustic touch. This contrasts with the white plastered walls that structure the salesroom. Fixtures and fittings featuring wooden slats create islands with a more intimate atmosphere for the bistro area and individual product offers – a setting with a simple design that makes the appetizing bakery and confectionery products look all the more attractive. Arched openings offer a view between the different areas such as the entrance, the bread counter, the confectionary department and the bistro area.\r\n\r\n\r\nDifferentiated light colours\r\n\r\nBÄRO developed a suitable lighting concept that structures the room with clearly zoned light. In addition, the light colours were matched to the various product groups and uses. For example, fresh bread and bakery products on the shelves, counters and displays are illuminated with the special spectrally matched LED light colour GoldenBread which emphasises the gold and brown tones of these products. In the confectionery department, on the other hand, the light colour PearlWhite is used, which renders white tones neutrally and colours particularly richly and freshly.\r\n\r\nIn the remaining area, the planners used light colour 927, a warm white with excellent colour rendering that creates a pleasant atmosphere and invites people to linger. The luminaires fitted are directional spotlights and wallwashers from the new CX recessed luminaire series as well as track-mounted spotlights from the XR series. Thanks to the BÄRO product system with identical light colours or beam characteristics available across series, the planners were able to implement their approach across the board despite very different installation situations.\r\n\r\nThe design of the XR series spotlights fits seamlessly into the store concept, as do the decorative glass bulb pendant luminaires specified and supplied by BÄRO for the project. At the same time, the combination of efficient LED technology and intelligent luminaire positioning leads to connected wattages that guarantee permanently low operating costs. The owners were very satisfied with the result: they chose the right partner for their ambitious project to create a lighting balance that is individually tailored to the premises and the concept.\r\n\r\n\r\nArchitects: Martijn Gosen, KING KONGS, Eindhoven (NL)\r\n\r\nWWW.KINGKONGS.COM\r\n\r\n\r\nShopfitter: Staalduinen Interieurs, Maasdijk (NL)\r\n\r\nWWW.MAATWERKINTERIEURS.COM\r\n\r\n\r\nUsed products:\r\n\r\nINTARA CX\r\nONTERO XR', 'https://www.baero.com/en/retail-lighting/references/auflistung/detail/traditionsbaeckerei-vreugdenhil-maasdijk-nl/', 'BÄRO-TRADITIONAL-BAKERY-VREUGDENHIL_small.jpg', 'BÄRO TRADITIONAL BAKERY VREUGDENHIL', 'TRADITIONAL BAKERY VREUGDENHIL, MAASDIJK, NETHERLANDS', 'Project Merkato is located in MAASDIJK, NETHERLANDS.

The Departmental Council of Indre-et-Loire, who owns the premises, wished to highlight the building\'s heritage with a complete and dynamic lighting.\r\n\r\nFor NOCTABENE and KANDELA, the lighting designers, the major challenge was to develop a variety of dramatic lighting designs while meeting very strict environmental constraints and minimising any visual impact. They also had to create a custom-made, programmable system to illuminate the castle according to seasons or events. \"The installation had to emphasise the reliefs and the specificities of the fortress and draw attention to certain architectural details using 4 scenarios: daily, glittering, mediaeval (red and gold) or royal blue,\" explains Pascal Gougeon, lighting designer for KANDELA. \"In order to do so, we needed to be able to perfectly dose the hues and their brightness and set the devices to very specific dimensions.\"\r\n\r\nFor Christophe Canadell, lighting designer at NOCTABENE, the choice of Lumenpulse was self-evident. \"We had already collaborated with Lumenpulse and had particularly appreciated the flexibility of their fixtures, the high performance of their optics and their expertise with DMX-controlled luminaires. We had full confidence in the team.\"\r\n\r\nThe Lumenpulse team worked closely with NOCTABENE and KANDELA in the field, carrying out extensive testing to select devices, validate optics and intensities, and ensure DMX access in difficult areas. Thus, 316 projectors, including 258 projectors supported by 32 specially sized totems and 88 recessed spotlights, were installed inside and around the ramparts.\r\n\r\nThis arrangement made it possible to highlight some details of the fortress while minimising the visual impact of the fixtures. \"Our goal was to highlight only what should be, without any loss,\" explains Pascal Gougeon. \"For instance, we used the Lumenpulse honeycomb on projectors to reduce glare. Thanks to Lumenpulse luminaires, we were able to provide a more complete lighting while reducing electricity consumption by 30% compared to the old, partial lighting.\"\r\n\r\nAll local media have reported positive comments about the new lighting design while the Chairman of the County Council has referred to a \"new dimension\" given to the site and the region. This new design will undoubtedly put the Royal Fortress of Chinon on the map of the world.\r\n\r\n\r\nClient: Conseil départemental de l’Indre-et-Loire\r\n\r\nLighting Design: NOCTABENE and KANDELA\r\n\r\nProgramming: Lumières Utiles\r\n\r\nInstallation: SPIE CITYNETWORKS\r\n\r\nPhotographer: Camille Saada', 'https://www.lumenpulse.com/projects/375/royal-fortress-of-chinon', 'Lumenpulse-Royal-Fortress-of-Chinon_small.jpg', 'Lumenpulse Royal Fortress of Chinon', 'Royal Fortress of Chinon, France', 'Project Royal Fortress of Chinon is located in Chinon, France.

(1277, 'TRG019', 66, 'Cattedrale Santa Maria Assunta', 'Volterra, Pisa, Italy', 'Volterra is the city of alabaster, well-known and visited by discerning tourists looking for less-known artistic treasures but of great historical-artistic value. The cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta is one of these places, the symbol of medieval Volterra and one of the finest examples of Pisan Romanesque architecture. Consecrated in 1120, the cathedral is home to both precious antique and modern works of art.  In 2016 to mark the 900th anniversary of its consecration the diocese in Volterra decided to start restoration work on the whole church, both architectural and structural work including the lighting system.  The lighting project was entrusted to the architect and lighting designer Massimo Iarussi given his particular talent and experience in the historical-artistic field.\r\n\r\nThe project is once again in-keeping with the concept of “light that remains in the background”, as Iarussi likes to define it where light does not intend to take centre stage, be self-referential and an end in itself, but appears to be rather \"organic\" to the space that surrounds it; perceived as intrinsic in the space. Visitors can enjoy the entire space and not specifically its light. \r\n\r\nWith the same aim the architect decided to design particular suspension fixtures made of alabaster for diffused lighting in the church and to hide the projectors that light the coffered ceiling. This idea was dictated by the already present overlapping of elements and styles from different eras inside the church, which make it a work of inestimable artistic value. The space, while retaining the Latin-cross basilica shape with three naves also has a late Renaissance aspect.  The coffered ceiling dates back to the late sixteenth century while the stucco coating on the columns, the floor and the walls painted in white and grey bands all date back to restoration work carried out the nineteenth century. The suspension fixtures therefore add a new element to the Cathedral, an expression of artistic and artisan work from the third millennium.\r\n\r\nThe entire project has a common theme of softness of light and perfect balance of luminance between the various areas of the church. Everywhere architectural details have been used to install fixtures and hide them as much as possible from view, except for the lanterns that also become important decorative elements.\r\n\r\nThe central nave is lit with diffused light from the new alabaster lanterns positioned below the arches that divide the naves. This is a tribute that the lighting designer wanted to pay to the city, the European capital for processing this precious mineral. The lanterns represent the masterful work of different artisans. The artisan who worked on the alabaster, the blacksmith who made the metal structure and Targetti who designed the technological heart. The R&D department at Targetti created a kind of metal tray to house the fixtures for different lighting scenes. The lanterns play a triple role of contributing to the general lighting in the church, lighting the coffered ceiling and providing a more scenographic zenith light for the floor. \r\n\r\nA kind of ring made of LED strips surrounds the metal tray to provide a backlight for the alabaster suspension fixtures. Inside they are equipped with custom-made projectors inspired by the ZENO range, fitted with a special adjustable bracket to light the coffered ceiling. Finally, in the lower part of the lanterns there are small recessed projectors derived from the LABEL 24 V range which are fixed to the metal trays using rods which zenithally light the floor.\r\n\r\nThe side naves are light indirectly. A decision was made to enhance the vaulted ceiling using linear lighting positioned on the existing chains. The effect is extremely soft without any particular focus. The lighting designer studied the right power and the distances between the walls so as not to create any blurring. Black 48 V tracks to light LABEL mini projectors are also attached to the chains to light the side chapels that are filled with precious frescoes.\r\n\r\nThe altar area is sober in terms of lighting sculptures and religious elements. Lighting is provided by custom-made projectors inspired by the ZENO range, positioned on a metal plate rather than on a track which light different vertical planes: the face of the celebrant and the altar that is home to the holy relics. The organ behind the majestic altar is lit with reflected light coming from the apse ceiling to leave it almost in dim light in order to focus attention on elements of more religious significance. \r\n\r\nParticular attention was paid to the front chapels of the transept which are home to the main works of art in the cathedral, such as the beautiful wooden deposition of Christ. They have preserved their medieval character, escaping subsequent alterations and are lit with low luminance levels and warmer tones.\r\n\r\nAll lighting is managed using a sophisticated DALI BUS system that makes it possible to create different scenes according to requirements, both in museums and places of worship. The cathedral on one hand is a place of continuous pilgrimage for visitors to Volterra, on the other, seeing as it is an episcopal see it performs various religious functions from simple gatherings for recollection and prayer to more solemn services. Iarussi created 8 different scenes where the different sculptural and architectural elements are treated differently – by dimming the lights – depending on the time the scene is used during services.  For example, the historic high altar (the pre-conciliar one where the celebrant has his back to worshipers) is slightly dimmed during liturgical services so as not to compete with the modern conciliar altar facing towards the faithful which is the fulcrum of the scene. In the scenes designed for tourist visits or concerts on the other hand the focus is on the historic altar which constitutes the fulcrum of the architecture, while the contemporary altar is left in the shadow. A similar criteria is also applied to the paintings and all the other architectural elements: elements that constitute a symbolic reference to liturgical aspects are only lit lightly during tourist visits where there are no services; on the contrary those with predominantly artistic value are in the shadows during services. Solemn occasions therefore create a link by maximising all the works of art and architectural elements. \r\n\r\nAll the scenes can be recalled using a push-button panel located in the sacristy of the church which means that it is easily accessible to all those involved in managing the Cathedral.\r\n\r\n\r\nYEAR: 2019\r\n\r\nARCHITECT: Giorgio Bascià\r\n\r\nLIGHTING DESIGNER: Arch.

(1278, 'LMN009', 149, 'eSentire', 'Waterloo, ON, Canada', 'LIGHTING MAKES A STATEMENT IN CONVERTED INDUSTRIAL OFFICE\r\n\r\nWhen eSentire moved to its new corporate headquarters in Factory Square (Waterloo, Ontario), it took over two units of an existing industrial facility with tall ceilings and concrete floors.  The fast-growing cybersecurity firm hired DFY Studio to transform the 65,000 sq.ft. expanse into an office building with large common areas and a café.\r\n\r\nDFY Studio worked with the concept of a cyber highway and its interconnectivity to create a dynamic space with visual connections. These visual connections were achieved by highlighting elements in the open ceilings, exposed conduit to the lighting, and graphic wayfinding throughout the space.\r\n\r\n\"The lighting had a significant role in our concept for the overall look,\" said Tahani Gunal, senior designer at DFY Studio. “We used it to connect our spaces visually and to enhance different zones on the floor plan.”\r\n\r\nWith ceilings over 20 feet, the design team sought lighting that would be powerful enough to illuminate the office environment, but not feel overly industrial. Gunal selected Luminis’ Prisma PR1682 as the primary luminaire for all open office areas.  The pendant is suspended with an aircraft cable to bring the fixture below the exposed beams, pipes and ductwork. Its design is modern and streamlined, but a large 16” diameter ensures its scale is well suited to the high ceilings.\r\n\r\n“With the black trim detail, the fixture has a beautiful sleek look that adds enough presence and illumination for the tall space,” Gunal said. “It holds its own and becomes a feature within the space, rather than disappearing.”\r\n\r\nPrisma\'s extruded aluminum housing is designed to optimize the functionality of the LED driver and solid-state components. Its diffused acrylic prismatic refractor with a linear peripheral pattern provides efficient down lighting to the workstations below. \r\n\r\nMost of the luminaires in the office are standard 3500K color temperature, ensuring a well-lit and comfortable working environment for the employees. However, one of the eSentire departments is located in an area with no natural light and necessitated a unique solution. Prisma luminaires in this space have a tunable white LED driver, and the color temperature is managed by a clock in an external lighting control. It is programmed to transform throughout the day between 2200K and 6500K, simulating the natural change of light in a day. An employee in this space then has a sense of the exterior environment, so their circadian rhythm still follows what they would experience if they had access to natural light. There is also an option to manually override the system as required.\r\n\r\nLow maintenance of the 150 + fixtures was also a consideration for the client, and Prisma will deliver with a lifetime beyond 150,000 hours.\r\n\r\n“The client is very satisfied with the look and performance of Prisma,” Gunal said. “We really love how the eSentire project turned out.”\r\n\r\n \r\nPROJECT NAME: eSentire\r\n\r\nPROJECT COMPLETION: June 2019\r\n\r\nSPECIFIER: DFY Studio\r\n\r\nLUMINIS AGENT: GS Lighting Group\r\n\r\nPHOTOGRAPHY: INDUSTRYOUS Photography', 'https://www.luminis.com/inspiration/featured-projects/lighting-makes-a-statement-in-converted-industri', 'Luminis-eSentire_small.jpg', 'Luminis eSentire', 'eSentire, Waterloo, ON, Canada', 'Project eSentire is located in Waterloo, ON, Canada.

(1291, 'ZTB029', 94, 'Bauhaus Museum Dessau', 'Dessau, Germany', 'A building within a building – The new Bauhaus Museum Dessau brings together the future and the modern age under a hovering black box\r\n\r\n\"A black box in a glass shell\" – this is how architect Roberto González describes the new Bauhaus Museum Dessau, designed by his firm addenda architects. It takes statics to the edge of magic: Inside, a concrete cube hovers, apparently weightlessly. The black structure is suspended five metres above the visitors\' heads, held aloft by just two staircases. Lighting solutions by Zumtobel present the exhibits in the proper light, while the lighting for the area beneath them can be flexibly adapted to the respective use of the space.\r\n\r\nTo this day, three former areas of activity are pilgrimage sites for designers and architects searching for traces of the Bauhaus: Founded in Weimar in 1919, the Bauhaus art school moved to Dessau in 1925, spending its most successful years there before moving to Berlin in 1932 for another year. In all three cities, a new museum building is being constructed to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the art school\'s foundation. The Berlin Bauhaus Archive will have a new exhibition building by 2022, Weimar has had a new Bauhaus Museum since the beginning of the year – and on 8th September 2019, a new home for the Bauhaus Dessau Foundation\'s collection was opened in the form of the Bauhaus Museum Dessau.\r\n\r\nThe new building, at the most important historical site, is an independent structure, which is deliberately not affiliated with the former school building distinguished as a UNESCO world heritage site. The museum is located in Dessau city park, right in the heart of the city. It was designed by a young architecture firm from Barcelona, whose concept was selected from over 831 submissions. Addenda architects (Roberto González, Anne Hinz, Cecilia Rodríguez, Arnau Sastre and José Zabala), is a collaborative studio with an interdisciplinary background. The team comprises designers who originally worked in a range of creative and cultural areas and are therefore particularly able to adapt to the specific context. After all, the Bauhaus too was a place where a community of designers from across the globe could come together. And it represented interdisciplinary work and a craft tradition.\r\n\r\nThe young architects did not want to quote history. Yet the museum does features all sorts of Bauhaus. \"But not in the sense of Mies van der Rohe\'s ‘Less is more’. For us, ‘More with less’ was more important,\" explained Roberto González. \"In our building, it\'s all about proportion, positioning and space. In the right combination, it is clear that you can achieve an outstanding result with just a few resources.\" The new building is to offer 1,500 square metres of exhibition space for the collection – without daylight and with optimal climatic conditions for the exhibits. The concept also required an area for flexible use, which can be used as a space for events or changing exhibitions.\r\n\r\nThe two functions could barely have been separated more consistently than they were by addenda architects. Five metres above the floor, a 100-metre-long and 18-metre-wide room structure is suspended as a black box. Inside, it accommodates the second largest Bauhaus collection in the world, comprising around 49,000 objects. Of these, over 1,000 exhibits are featured in the \"Versuchsstätte Bauhaus. The collection\" exhibition. Light is fed into the black box with general light planning by Lichtvision Design, exhibition lighting by ENVUE HOMBURG LICHT and solutions by Zumtobel. Zumtobel, as the exclusive lighting partner, supplies all lighting solutions and collaborated closely with the responsible architects, exhibition designers and lighting designers during the planning and implementation phases.\r\n\r\nThe planners from Lichtvision Design placed particular emphasis on supporting the clarity and stringency of the architectural design. \"The light planning creates a serial, industrial, flexible and linear base structure in the area of the ceiling,\" explained Carla Wilkins from Lichtvision Design. The TECTON light is a continuous-row lighting system, which, thanks to its flexible and wide-ranging components, can be adapted to any lighting task – including electrotechnical special solutions. It was possible to implement the general, emergency and exhibition lighting with just one system. On the ground floor, linear light inserts provide diffused and democratic light. In individual areas, single spotlights supplement the continuous row, creating accents and supporting orientation. \"By minimising the stylistic element in the lighting technology, attention is shifted to the room itself, creating a platform for the varied use of the newly created Bauhaus space,\" said Carla Wilkins.\r\n\r\nThe exhibition lighting for the scenography of the collected works, designed by chezweitz, was planned by ENVUE HOMBURG LICHT. Staged light, or rather directed light, plays a particularly important role here. The ARCOS spotlight system is specifically tailored to use in a museum context. It provides accented, precise and authentic staging of the exhibits and exhibition architecture. The innovative LED lighting, combined with customised reflectors and selected optics, generates a unique light quality for subtle presentation with translucent, white and coloured materials. With ARCOS, light in Dessau becomes a tool for the perfect staging of art and design. \"The black box room recedes into the background and, because of its dark walls, seems almost non-existent – all scattered light is absorbed,\" explained Urs Schreiner from ENVUE HOMBURG LICHT.\r\n\r\nBeacon-Module were also integrated in anticipation. These small, stationary radio broadcasting stations take future applications of the museum into account, such as digital museum guides, mobile navigation through the exhibition or customised information systems about the exhibits. The parallel installation brings two technologies together in one property – even if the Internet of Things will only be incorporated in the museum at a later date. The adaptability of the installed light system is another important requirement. For, since there is no fixed use of the open community space beneath the exhibition cube, the lighting must also be dynamically adaptable – for presentation situations, workshops or temporary installations.\r\n\r\nThe ground floor is a consistent contrast to the black box. Anyone who enters the open space on the ground level experiences a \"magical moment,\" as Roberto González describes it. \"Suddenly you\'re right in the middle. There are no more limitations. Everything appears open, transparent and fluid.\" And the important thing is: the openness works in both directions. Not only is the visitor behind the glass façade standing perceptibly right in the city centre, but the building itself also influences the urban context. On one side, it creates a connection to the green park and, on the other side, to the city centre. The architects from Barcelona would actually have liked to have left the space under the hovering box open, but: \"We are in northern Europe, where there\'s a lot of rain and it can get very cold. That\'s why we constructed a kind of winter coat made of glass.\"\r\n\r\nThe positioning in the centre of Dessau was a deliberate decision; the new building is intended to attract fans of the Bauhaus to the city. And the location in the city park was also deliberate. What the park loses in terms of area, is in part given back by the rooftop garden, which becomes a fifth façade, with the plants helping to optimise the building in terms of the climate. The result is maximum openness, flexibility and consistent functionality.\r\n\r\nThe new Bauhaus museum was opened on Sunday, 8th September 2019 and was a highlight of the 100th anniversary of Bauhaus. For the first time, the Bauhaus Dessau Foundation\'s collection is fully represented – and the museum, as an independent, contemporary location, will supplement and connect the Bauhaus buildings in Dessau in equal measure.', 'https://www.zumtobel.com/media/downloads/2019_10_02_PR_Bauhaus_Museum_Dessau_EN.pdf', 'Zumtobel-Bauhaus-Museum-Dessau_small.jpg', 'Zumtobel Bauhaus Museum Dessau', 'Bauhaus Museum Dessau, Germany', 'Project Bauhaus Museum Dessau is located in Germany.

(1300, 'FOP012', 45, 'CSHQA', 'Boise, Idaho, USA', 'A&E Firm receives long-awaited answer with Focal Point Integrated Lighting and Acoustic System\r\n\r\nA full-service architecture and engineering firm known for its focus on commercial, retail, and multi-family residential projects set out to push the envelope when designing its new office, using it as a laboratory to showcase its capabilities and areas of expertise while incorporating the latest products and energy efficient designs. In an effort to reinvent and transform its brand, culture, and public perception, CSHQA renovated a former railway warehouse into its downtown Boise, Idaho office.\r\n\r\nThe firm made the strategic design decision to locate all conference rooms near the front entrance of the office to spare clients from having to navigate through workstations and collaboration areas during visits. Set among the larger conference rooms is a small meeting room designed for quick huddles of four to six people or conference calls and video chats. Since their move into the office in 2013, the CSHQA team had struggled to find a solution for the echoing and reverberation issues in this small conference room.\r\n\r\n\r\nFish Bowl Effect\r\n\r\nAccording to Nicole Cecil, Interior Design Manager at CSHQA, the team made many attempts to resolve the acoustic problems over the years. They worked to add acoustical treatments, such as wall applications and carpet, to no avail. Other solutions explored were neither deemed not cost-effective nor would yield the desired impact.\r\n\r\nThe room is approximately 12 feet long and 10 feet wide, with a ceiling height of 12 feet to the exposed joists and wood decking. It also contains an angled entry portion with glass walls and large glass windows overlooking the outdoor patio that let in plenty of natural light. The only other additional light source was a small pendant suspended over the center of the four-foot, round conference table. The room, playfully referred to by the CSHQA team as “the fish bowl” for obvious reasons, was not being used to its full potential.\r\n\r\nReflecting on the usability of the space, Amy Dockter, Engineering Principal at CSHQA, stated: “It was just not a comfortable space to sit in and have a meeting with anybody inside or outside the office. It felt like you were in a well because the structure is so high and there is nothing in between it.” Dockter also commented on the light level issues, saying: “Due to the light level it was not functional and effective. It was not enough light, not evenly distributed, and on top of all that it has noise issues .”\r\n\r\nAmy’s colleagues in the company’s California and Colorado offices all shared her sentiment that the room was uncomfortable, especially for those on the other end of a conference call or video meeting who were unable hear conversations clearly due to the extreme echoing.\r\n\r\n\r\nFinding the Right Fit\r\n\r\nA routine vendor visit provided the long-awaited answer to the acoustic and lighting dilemma the company had struggled to resolve. Remembering the experience...\r\n\r\nDockter stated: “DMA Lighting showed my team of electrical engineers the new Seem 1 Acoustic luminaire and baffle system from Focal Point. They immediately notified me stating, ‘you’ve got to look at this’.”\r\n\r\nCecil was also involved in reviewing the new Focal Point product, recalling her immediate thoughts, “this would be a great application for the small conference room.”\r\n\r\nUsing the Seem 1 Acoustic luminaire and baffle system was an opportunity to tie in with CSHQA’s building model of creating a living laboratory and showplace for their clients to experience products firsthand, while also achieving their acoustic and lighting needs for the space. Members from CSHQA met with Focal Point’s Acoustic Solutions team to establish a strategy for the project.\r\n\r\nIt was determined that the contributing factors to the extreme echoing were the concrete floor, glass walls and windows, gypsum walls, hard table and chairs, and high, open wooden ceiling structure. The HVAC system was also identified as a noise generating source. To assist with the acoustic design, CSHQA hired a local acoustician to ascertain the reverberation time and provide recommendations for sound abatement.\r\n\r\nDue to its small size, the room did not have enough volume to conduct a useful reverberation time (RT) analysis. Therefore, the acoustic consultant used the room conditions, including reflectivity of the exposed surfaces and total room volume, to calculate the current RT for the space. The current RT of the room was 1.1 seconds, well above the recommended 0.8 second target for conference rooms, supported by the WELL Building Standard.\r\n\r\nUsing the ASTM C423 test reports for Focal Point’s Seem 1 Acoustic baffles, the acoustician then calculated how much surface area coverage of 8\' long acoustical baffles was required to achieve the targeted 0.8 second RT. Based on the evaluation, Focal Point’s Acoustic Solutions team presented two options for designing with Seem 1 Acoustic that would achieve acoustic and light level requirements. The first option recommended 4 rows of 8\' long, 16\" high baffles with 24\" on-center spacing. The second option recommended a high-density array with 8 rows of 8\' long, 16\" high baffles with 12\" on-center spacing.\r\n\r\nUltimately, an array of four 8\' long and 16\" high baffles at 24\" on-center was selected, which matches the joist spacing. This option covered only 30% of the surface area, but still yielded an 0.8 second RT, meeting the ideal reverberation time of a conference room. The low-density array of baffles helped hide unsightly elements of the space, such as sprinkler pipes and junction boxes, while leaving the space feeling welcoming, open and airy. To aid in the acoustics further, the acoustician also suggested adding 1-inch thick fabric-wrapped panels on the art wall opposite to the window to help mitigate noise.\r\n\r\nBased on lighting standards, the small room needed 30 to 40 foot candles to achieve optimal illumination levels. CSHQA opted to illuminate the two center baffles with a direct output of 500 lumens per foot at 3500K color temperature and leave the two remaining baffles unlit. The CSHQA team chose the Slate color for both the illuminated and non-illuminated baffles to coordinate with the existing color scheme.\r\n\r\nAs a testament to the effectiveness of the product, Dockter recruited an employee who was detached from the project to test the outcome and provide feedback. His response reassured Dockter and the CSHQA team that they had successfully resolved the reverberation issues, creating a usable space. Cecil agreed, stating there was definitely an improvement, the noise reduction and deadening of sound were very noticeable.\r\n\r\nFurther reflecting on the improvements aside from the reverberation and light levels, Dockter stated: “The fixtures lowered the ceiling plane to make it feel more like a room and less like a well while also keeping the open structure feel.” Seem 1 Acoustic system was the long-awaited answer to the problematic small conference room, addressing the light levels and acoustic issues while also ensuring that the system integrated with the aesthetics of the space. The result is a now highly functional conference room that reflects CSHQA’s capabilities.\r\n\r\n\r\nPhotographer: John Sternisha', 'https://www.focalpointlights.com/gallery/open-office#overlay=modal-overlay/5830', 'Focal-Point-Lights-CSHQA_small.jpg', 'Focal Point Lights CSHQA', 'CSHQA, Boise, Idaho, USA', 'Project CSHQA is located in Boise, Idaho, USA.

(1301, 'FOP013', 45, 'Eastlake Studio', 'Chicago, IL, USA', 'Uniting historic architecture and modern design to generate a more collaborative office\r\nRich history and a cool vibe best describe Eastlake Studio’s new downtown office. The well-known, Chicago-based architecture and interior design firm, who has designed offices for notable organizations like Pandora, Kimberly-Clark, and Cision was faced with adversity when plans to convert the building that had been their long-time residence to a hotel and condos became a reality.\r\n\r\nEastlake Studio had been residing in the Tribune Tower, an iconic Chicago structure, for approximately three decades. The change of vocation of the tower from commercial to mixed-use residential provided the architecture firm an opportunity to address the challenges of the former office while opting to move to another historic building. The limitation of the original office were motivators for designing the new space.\r\n\r\nAccording to Kevin Kamien, Principal at Eastlake Studio, the main goal of the project was to maintain the open working relationship and studio vibe, emblematic of the organization. The new office still encompasses the most beloved features of the old space – cityscape views and areas for creative production – while also delivering elements it had been missing. Employees were previously spread out across three floors and a finicky HVAC system were just a few of the limitations of the original space.\r\n\r\n“We wanted to take the working relationships on our floors and transcribe that into a new space with natural light, keeping the views, but also giving us all the things that we were missing: meeting spaces, more collaboration rooms, and formal meeting areas,” stated Kamien. The 65,000 square-foot space reflects the company’s culture, supports its work process and serves as a showroom during client visits.\r\n\r\nThe single-floor office is divided into two suites, one occupying the north side of the space, the other one the south side. The north side suite, a section once part of the original art deco building offers views of some of Chicago’s most notable architecture, a large formal conference room and two executive suites providing a respite from the active, south side suite. The south side suite encompasses employee workstations, private phone rooms, collaboration areas, and a resource library where the design team can deliver presentations. Connecting these two areas is a long corridor with a multi-use seating area, where a feature wall prominently displays the company’s revamped logo. It is illuminated by Focal Point Seem® 4 suspended luminaires in a custom black finish which seamlessly blends with the dark open ceiling structure. Seem® 2 Asymmetric recessed luminaires were used to illumination the hallway leading into the large open work area.\r\n\r\nKamien explains why the team selected the asymmetric luminaires and other products used in the project:\r\n\r\n“We wanted to use vendors and manufacturers that we use in a lot of our projects. It was an easy path to select Focal Point and to start working with them to develop and find solutions that kept the open office area feel open. We use the Seem family of fixtures quite often, we found the asymmetric works really well for highlighting and wall washing, and that it gave out a lot of ambient light to properly light the rest of the corridor and pathway.”\r\n\r\nWith a history of designing noteworthy commercial interiors, it was no surprise Eastlake Studio knew exactly what elements to incorporate into their new office to create an elegant, modern, and collaborative environment. Kamien continued, “we were looking for lighting solutions that went with the conceptual process of the studio atmosphere, something that was elegant, and spoke to the quality of projects that we do on a daily basis.” Including products typically used in their projects gives the staff the ability to show examples of the quality and aesthetic Eastlake Studio can create and allows clients to see the products in a natural application.\r\n\r\nTo ensure the open and airy design of the workstation area was preserved, a continuous run of Focal Point Nera® linear luminaires was selected. Its modern aesthetic, unobtrusive design, center void, and Power Up™ technology elevate the look while providing optimal illumination. “Having something that we can see through, it feels elegant in the space, you don\'t see messy power cords, everything is run through the aircraft cables, it was critical to keep that kind of aesthetic and tone in the open spaces,” noted Kamien.\r\n\r\nThanks to the various distribution, configuration, and lumen output options in the Nera collection, Eastlake was also able to use individual units of Nera linear luminaires in the north side suite, offsetting the confined feeling that the lower ceilings deliver while bringing a cohesive look to the office.\r\n\r\nThe organization has been on a steady growth path for the last several years and this new space with historic roots, sitting partially over the site of Fort Dearborn, represents the brand and its future while demonstrating the quality and aesthetic the architecture and design firm can produce.\r\n\r\n\r\nArchitect: Eastlake Studio\r\n\r\nPhotographer: Steve Hall + Nick Merrick Photographers', 'https://www.focalpointlights.com/gallery/open-office#overlay=modal-overlay/5834', 'Focal-Point-Lights-Eastlake-Studio_small.jpg', 'Focal Point Lights Eastlake Studio', 'Eastlake Studio, Chicago, IL, USA', 'Project Eastlake Studio is located in Chicago, IL, USA.

In the large hall and reception offices, Laser Blade XL recessed luminaires guarantee homogeneous lighting, and circular effects are created on the floor by using a warmer colour temperature than the other rooms.\r\n\r\n\r\nYear: 2019\r\n\r\nClient: Big Green Egg Europe\r\n\r\nLighting project: Beersnielsen lichtontwerpers\r\n\r\nArchitecture, Interior design and furnishings: Paul de Vroom Sputnik\r\n\r\nPhotographer: Ossip van Duivenbode', 'https://www.iguzzini.com/projects/project-gallery/the-big-green-egg-europe-offices/', 'iGuzzini-The-Big-Green-Egg-Europe-offices_small.jpg', 'iGuzzini The Big Green Egg Europe offices', 'The Big Green Egg Europe offices, De Lier, Holland, Netherlands', 'Project The Big Green Egg Europe offices is located in De Lier, Holland, Netherlands.

(1303, 'VBA010', 129, 'Vaqueta Gastro Mercat', 'Valencia, Spain', 'Situated in Valencia’s Central Market, part of the historic city center, is Vaqueta Gastro Mercat. A combination green-grocer and restaurant, the innovative space was designed by Janfri & Rachal.\r\n\r\nThe restaurant, tucked into the rear of the grocery store like a secret speakeasy, is a bold merging of materials and styles.\r\n\r\nHere, bamboo ceilings and colorful mosaic tiles co-mingle seamlessly with Carrara marble and gleaming gold accents.\r\n\r\nA few small rooms throughout the eatery offer intimacy within the sprawling space. One features Antoni Arola’s Flamingo lamp, with a deconstructed design that recalls its namesake hovering like a bird overhead. The fixture’s luminous presence adds a delicate counterpoint to the room’s weathered stone and wooden beams, casting diffuse gradations of LED-powered light.\r\n\r\nIn the restaurant’s main room, the designers deployed the Palma pendant, also by Antoni Arola. Inspired by ancient hanging gardens, Arola created the pendant with the idea of connecting light and vegetation as in the natural world.\r\n\r\nTwo glowing semicircles of blown glass joined by an aluminum belt accommodate vegetation, adding an organic, untamed touch to Vaqueta.\r\n\r\nClustered above individual tables bordered by curving bamboo, the vertical version lends the look of a natural enclosure, while spanning the length of one side the horizontal Palma helps elongate and accentuate the area.', 'https://www.vibia.com/en/vibia-brightens-valencias-vaqueta-gastro-mercat/', 'Vibia-Vaqueta-Gastro-Mercat_small.jpg', 'Vibia Vaqueta Gastro Mercat', 'Vaqueta Gastro Mercat, Valencia, Spain', 'Project Vaqueta Gastro Mercat is located in Valencia, Spain.

The restaurant was initially founded in Moscow in 1997 and now has branches in all the most sophisticated locations in the world, including London, Munich and Dubai. Sumosan’s latest restaurant is located in Porto Montenegro, one of the most luxurious ports in Europe. The location’s interior design is simple and refined with elegant architectural lines and no superfluous objects, and this compliance with minimalist Japanese style is also reflected in the lighting design that is based on a perfect balance between light and shadow. On account of their strict minimalist style, Laser Blade High Contrast and Laser Blade XS luminaires have been used, in both pendant and recessed versions. The soft atmosphere they create is so perfect that many customers have commented and even posted compliments about it.\r\n\r\n\r\nYear: 2019\r\n\r\nClient: Zaliv MN Group\r\n\r\nLighting project: Sienersys Ltd.\r\n\r\nArchitectural design: ABBA Design Mason&Smith Development\r\n\r\nPhotographer: Luka Bošković', 'https://www.iguzzini.com/projects/project-gallery/sumosan,-japanese-cuisine-in-montenegro/', 'iGuzzini-Sumosan_small.jpg', 'iGuzzini Sumosan', 'Sumosan', 'Project Sumosan is located in Valencia, Spain.

(1305, 'LNL022', 103, 'Aura Shopping Centre', 'Rome, Italy', 'New light for Roman shopping\r\n\r\nBorn out of an urban upgrade project with the goal of exploiting the former Veschi Furnace, the Aura Shopping Centre is a multifunctional business gallery just a short distance from Vatican City. More than 60 shops, a superstore, a fitness & spa centre and a huge bookstore occupy the space around the large central plaza, connected actively with the Metro network. An arrangement over four floors, where the last one opens up to a view overlooking all of Rome with a terrace primarily dedicated to eateries. Unique spaces that make the Aura Shopping Centre the new hub of relaxation and shopping, immersed in a green area dotted with pedestrian walkways.\r\n\r\n\r\nROMAN LIFESTYLE\r\n\r\nLinea Light Group designs lighting for the Aura Shopping Centre. Particular attention was dedicated to the outdoors: a painstaking study of the lighting scenarios and the various settings guaranteed an adequate luminous wayfinding throughout the course of the entire day. For the indoors, the solution adopted allows the retail experience to be enhanced at 360°.\r\n\r\nDescribing the structure from the outside, two products are protagonists of the Aura Shopping Centre lighting. Installed on a vertical axis, Xenia RGBW stands out on the upper part of the façade, giving the geometry rhythm in a modular way. Xenia is an ultra high performance solution that can count on the reliability of OVP, ESD, TCS® and AcquaStop® safety systems and the wide performance range. Arcada marks the outer perimeter with its reduced size, creating a very precise arced diffusion. The resulting indirect lighting supports the path from the bottom up, leading to a perfect exploitation of the space by the customer. The profiles of the external handrails, as well as those at the imposing entrance and bronzed frames, accompany PU_C Plus, a strip solution with flexible and adhesive circuit: easily adaptable, it can be curved or cut depending on the architectural needs in the structure. Thin 66 and Stick, minimal and resistant to impact and atmospheric agents, were positioned in walking and car transit areas such as ramps and the car park. Included in the project, in the underground parking access area, Eral brand wired tubes were installed. Eral is a Linea Light Group company that supplies industrial lighting solutions. Inside the building, Fylo+ Direct are the protagonists of the Aura Shopping Centre: a masterpiece of creative geometric applications provided by a product that uses its linear properties as a springboard for volumes and definitions of space.\r\n\r\n\r\nPhoto: Lungimirante', 'https://www.linealight.com/en-gb/case-histories/aura-shopping-centre/249', 'Linea-Light-Aura-Shopping-Centre_small.jpg', 'Linea Light Aura Shopping Centre', 'Aura Shopping Centre, Rome, Italy', 'Project Aura Shopping Centre is located in Rome, Italy.
