For interior architecture too, planners at the Love Architecture and Urbanism bureau have made use of open and flexible workspaces. For optimal lighting, an individual LED lighting solution was developed by Selux in close cooperation with the ceiling manufacturer Haufe. Here the recess depth of the luminaires has been reduced from 72 mm to just under 25 mm so that the light strips can be inserted harmoniously into the ceiling without any interruptions to the ceiling system carrier rails for lighting installation.\r\n\r\nFollowing 5 years of planning and construction, the new 50 Hertz company HQ, also known as the ‘grid district’, opened at the start of September 2016 in Berlin-Mitte. The main office has been designed by the young architects\' bureau Love Architecture and Urbanism, with the result a 56-metre high, transparent construction providing space for 650 workers on around 12,000 m². Its exterior appearance is characterised by a striking, geometrical structure, with white slanting, steel-clad concrete columns making for an eye-catching zig-zagged façade.\r\n\r\nOn the inside, the building\'s transparent architecture is reflected in the open workspaces. Based on consultations of staff, communicative office landscapes have been developed to promoter employee interaction and facilitate collaboration on a day-to-day basis.\r\n\r\nThe modular system of LED luminaires by Selux guarantees optimal and efficient light. One particular feature of this special lighting solution is how the M36 luminaires are integrated flush with the adjacent areas into a special, acoustic louvred ceiling by Haufe using a lower installation height of just under 25 mm. This low construction height enables them to be positioned directly under the carrier rail, thus simplifying installation and removing any need to interrupt the carrier rails for lighting. The special office optics – a combination of microlouvres and a microprism diffuser – ensures balanced illumination of work surfaces, walls and ceilings – without any disruptive glare or casting of shadows. The linear path of the ceiling system is emphasised by the lines of light, lending the office spaces and foyers a spacious appearance, while at the same time providing orientation in corridors. At a total length of around 2,400 metres, the light lines add a designer touch on the one hand while at the same time ensuring a pleasant office atmosphere for staff at 50Hertz.\r\n\r\nbuyer: Altmann und Böhning, Berlin\r\narchitect: Mark Jenewein, love architecture and urbanism, Graz\r\nlighting designer: Aurelia Design Lighting Planning\r\ndesign: Kinzo Berlin GmbH\r\nelectrical installation: Inros Lackner, Rostock\r\nphotographer: Werner Huthmacher', 'https://www.selux.com/ger/en/attic/interior/inspiration/50hertz-headquarters-berlin', 'Selux-50Hertz-Headquarters_small.jpg', 'Selux 50Hertz Headquarters', '50Hertz Headquarters, Berlin, Germany', 'Project 50Hertz Headquarters is located in Berlin, Germany.

Designed by “starchitect” Daniel Libeskind, the new main building at the Leuphana University was officially unveiled at an opening ceremony in March 2017 and now protrudes into the sky confidently and splendidly above the Lunenburg Heath. Light for the entrance hall and for many of the traffic areas, research and seminar rooms is provided by flexible Selux M-family pendant and recessed LED luminaires in different lengths – from 40 cm to 24 metres, equipped with various added extras like LED spots, tracks and security lights.\r\n\r\nThe building incorporates a shiny outer shell, numerous diagonals and unusual shaped windows, all hallmarks of Daniel Libeskind’s typical architectural style. The diagonals are a symbolic reference to the history of the location since the campus is located on the grounds of a barracks that was built in the 1930s, which was characterised by a highly orthogonal structure. Now the new building accommodates a student centre with a cafeteria and offices, a seminar centre with various workshop or seminar rooms, a research centre and a lecture theatre that provides space for 1,100 people.\r\n\r\nHow best to illuminate the architecture of a building with highly complex room structures? This was the question facing planners. Libeskind’s architectural language was already well known to Selux, our engineers having first worked with him in 1999 during the construction of the new Jewish Museum in Berlin. Across wide areas, light planners have opted here for the modular M-family in profile widths of 60 mm and 100 mm. Whether pendant or recessed, single luminaire or linear light fixture – the reserved, linear lighting solution ideally complements the minimalist architecture while at the same time ensuring pleasant, glareless light. The M-family also enables optimal light quality in the spacious atrium, which is dynamically criss-crossed by stairs and bridges, and a high level of efficiency even at great heights.\r\n\r\nA special feature of the linear light fixtures is the diagonal end brackets aligned parallel to the wall while the acrylic diffuser houses a special lens optics system with microsprims to reduce direct and indirect glare. With their pointcast light, the spots built into the luminaire profile fitted with retrofit LED lamps provide further lighting design accents, while the luminaire’s functionality is supplemented by the full range of integrated optional extras such as 3-phase tracks, smoke detectors, DALI light control, presence and motion sensors and security lighting, enabling each individual lighting solution to be precisely geared to the relevant room situation and use. Overall around 2,500 running metres of linear light fixtures are installed in various lengths, ensuring glareless general lighting in public spaces, corridors and seminar rooms.\r\n\r\nbuyer: Leuphana University Foundation\r\narchitect: rw+ Gesellschaft von Architekten mbH\r\nlighting designer: Studio Dinnebier, Berlin\r\ndesign: Prof. Daniel Libeskind\r\ngeneral contractor: University of Lüneburg\r\nelectrical planning: Emutec GmbH, Norderstedt\r\nelectrical installation: R+S solutions GmbH, Lübeck\r\nphotographer: Till Schuster', 'https://www.selux.com/ger/en/attic/interior/inspiration/leuphana-university', 'Selux-Main-building-of-Leuphana-University_small.jpg', 'Selux Main building of Leuphana University', 'Main building of Leuphana University, Lüneburg, Germany', 'Project Main building of Leuphana University is located in Lüneburg, Germany.

This sprawling campus is a mixture of low and high buildings – one of which is home to the Faculty of Dentistry’s clinic. Starting in 2014, this building was refurbished and expanded with the focus on sustainability and design – including efficient, elegant lighting by Selux manufactured with the same goal. In the atrium Olivio system luminaires provide flexible and efficient light.\r\n\r\nBesides a modern façade, the dental facility has also benefited from a new, centrally-located atrium. Due to its low height, the modern building also draws its natural, park-like surroundings deep into its interior. The view of the outside is also unobstructed above head height, with the glass ceiling enabling plenty of natural daylight to flood into its interior to complement the sophisticated artificial lighting. Planners at the engineering firm Deerns opted for the Olivio system luminaire – designed by the landscape architects at West 8.\r\n\r\nWith its floral look, Olivio brings nature into the atrium. Like flowerbuds sprouting from a branch, the delicate lumninaire heads harmonise with the surrounding landscape – enabling the prestigious atrium to ‘flower’ in a new light. The 5.5 metre high tapered pole with sloping arm matches the Y-shaped supporting construction of the glass ceiling while the Olivio luminaires, which were originally designed for exterior lighting, support the interior with its largely open design.\r\n\r\nThe six pole-top luminaires manage to stand out in the light-flooded hall, while simultaneously blending seamlessly into the surroundings. The warm 3000 K luminous colour also creates a pleasant sojourn quality. In the adjacent areas, Olivio surface-mounted luminaires on the exposed concrete ceilings provide a gentle transition with the neighbouring rooms.\r\n\r\nClose collaboration between dental specialists, architects and engineers has led to a sustainable refurbishment of this clinic, but also in enhanced comfort, an organic design and efficient lighting technology.\r\n\r\nclient: Radboud University\r\narchitect: Inbo Amsterdam\r\nlighting designer: Deerns\r\nelectrical installation: Deerns / Croes\r\nphotographer: Jan De Vries\r\nRepresentation: Selux Benelux', 'https://www.selux.com/ger/en/attic/interior/inspiration/dental-clinic-at-radboud-universiteit', 'Selux-Dental-clinic-at-Radboud-University_small.jpg', 'Selux Dental clinic at Radboud University', 'Dental clinic at Radboud University, Nijmegen, Netherlands', 'Project Dental clinic at Radboud University is located in Nijmegen, Netherlands.

The ambitious goal of the project was to create a building that adds architectural quality to the site. The project was inspired by the desire to give an almost \"sculptural\" and aesthetically pleasing value to carrying out a daily task. The building is approximately 120 metres long and a lot of thought was put into managing the scale of the facade, to avoid making it too invasive compared to the urban context. The ventilated facade is composed of sheet metal blocks in four different versions, which have been installed in a completely random fashion, without any predefined pattern. There are 400 Trick devices inside these blocks, making them invisible from the outside. The lighting effect shines out through the openings to create an irregular pattern of light and shade on the facade. This emphasises the architecture and creates the perception of a non-place in the municipality of Umeå, thereby improving it.  An otherwise dark junction where four roads meet has been enriched by an illuminated sculpture that gives pleasure to motorists and pedestrians alike. The roof is equipped with a system of solar cells that provides the building with electricity, and each floor offers recharging points for electric cars.\r\n\r\nInside, the 17-metre width is free of supporting columns, allowing a full view of the whole environment, a view that is further increased by the choice of light colours; it all helps to create a sense of safety for those using this space.\r\n\r\nYear: 2018\r\n\r\nClient: INAB AB\r\n\r\nArchitectural project: TM Architects - Christoffer Andersson\r\n\r\nLighting project: Ramböll - Magnus Olsson & Henry Torstensson\r\n\r\nPhotographer: Åke E:son-Lindman', 'https://www.iguzzini.com/projects/project-gallery/the-car-park-becomes-a-bright-urban-landmark/', 'iGuzzini-Car-Park-Umea_small.jpg', 'iGuzzini Car Park, Umeå', 'Car Park, Umeå, Sweden', 'Project Car Park is located in Umeå, Sweden.

The facility was built against a backdrop of mountains, ocean and parks, and served as an international broadcasting centre and main press centre during the Winter Olympics and Paralympics of 2010.\r\n\r\nIn addition to the functions that were demonstrated during this global event, the complex has an array of special features that make it one of the greenest convention centres in the world. The green roof landscape is designed as a self-sufficient habitat, characteristic of the coastal region of British Columbia: a fully functional ecosystem with more than 400,000 native plants, small mammals, birds and insects. Below the waterside promenade it also has an artificial reef, which serves as a biotope for a rich diversity of marine life. The constant temperature of the sea water is also used to control the climate of the convention centre, heating in the winter and cooling in the summer. Waste water is treated on site.\r\n\r\nBEGA in-ground floodlights cast an attractive light on the convention centre, which has an innovatively glazed façade. The design of these in-ground luminaires enables the façade to be fully illuminated.

The Golden Temple was built in Amritsar, India, in the 16th century. The Golden Temple is home to the original holy scriptures of the Sikhs. In the early 19th century, a golden dome was added to the building.\r\n\r\nHarmandir Sahib became a battleground in the 1980s where many people lost their lives. Sikhs extremists wanted to proclaime the state of Khalistan and holed up inside the Golden Temple for two years. 400 troops and 2,000 Sikhs lost their lives when the Indian army stormed the temple in 1984. In response to these atrocities, Prime Minister Indira Gandhi was assassinated by her Sikh bodyguards a few months later.\r\n\r\nToday, thousands of pilgrims – and not just Sikhs – visit the Golden Temple and its beautifully appointed palace grounds every day. The gates on all four sides of the temple signify the openness of the Sikhs towards all peoples and religions. The Golden Temple stands in the centre of an island on Lake Amrit Sarovar, and has a very special appeal thanks to its unusual golden aura. The interior of the temple is cleaned with milk every day. Pilgrims are allowed to remain below the arcades and in adjacent spaces of the palace for a maximum of three days. \r\n\r\nThe illumination of this holiest of Sikh sites after sunset and throughout the night is the task of BEGA LED high-performance floodlights.

The complex of the Department of Urban Development and Environment (Behörde für Stadtentwicklung und Umwelt – BSU), designed by Sauerbruch Hutton, catches the eye even from afar with a curved and multi-coloured façade.\r\n\r\nThe new BSU building extends over almost 200m. It comprises a high-rise with thirteen floors and two wings of seven “houses” with five floors each . With a total floor area of around 61,000sqm, it accommodates office space along with exhibition areas, conference sections and catering facilities. The central forum, which is open to the public, houses an architectural model of the city of Hamburg.\r\nColour is considered the hallmark of architecture designed by Louisa Hutton and Matthias Sauerbruch. Their polychrome façades – one need only think of the Brandhorst Museum in Munich or the Federal Environmental Agency in Dessau – seem to echo the diverse impressions of surrounding cities. The façade of the BSU is embellished with around 30,000 ceramic panels, glazed in twenty NCS colours ranging from yellow and red tones for the high-rise through to blue, green and violet nuances for the wings. Arranged in horizontal lines, their concave and convex sweeps underline the undulating flow of the façade. Whereas the colour combination is easy to make out from close up, the view from a distance produces an oscillating play of colours.\r\n\r\nA diverse range of ERCO lighting tools is used throughout various sections of the BSU. Special attention is given to the illumination of the Hamburg model. Measuring more than a hundred square metres, it replicates the city centre with virtually all its buildings, streets, green spaces and waters at a scale 1:500. Initially commissioned by the Hamburg City Council some sixty years ago, it has since been updated regularly. Existing buildings are shown in white, planned projects are kept in wood colours. The model attracts keen interested not only among private visitors but also helps urban planners, architects, investors and other experts with their work. ERCO’s experience in lighting for museums, galleries and other exhibition spaces comes in useful here for the illumination of the filigree structure. \r\n\r\nThe city model required particularly “clean” illumination. The planners therefore opted for Parscan and Cantax on track. The ERCO spotlights ensure brilliant, crisp illumination even of very delicate model details, with excellent glare control. The partly arched concrete ceiling with the columns in the exhibition hall, in contrast, is dramatically accentuated using the uniform, neutral white light of ERCO’s Trion ceiling washlight, which simultaneously gives the impression of higher rooms.\r\n\r\nEqually as impressive in their own right, the hallways and circulation zones are illuminated using ERCO’s Quintessence downlights. In the architectural concept of the BSU, the passages are used not only as access routes but also expressly invite people to pause and enjoy the atriums and seating areas. In combination with the undulating flow of the interior and the bright colour scheme of white and natural tones throughout, the glare-free LED light creates a welcoming and spacious ambience. Above the wooden staircase and balustrade railings with filigree timber struts which open the view and add a transparent character, Quintessence integrates unobtrusively into the elegant style of the architecture.\r\n\r\nArchitect: Sauerbruch Hutton, Berlin / Germany\r\nPhotographer: Frieder Blickle, Hamburg / Germany\r\nProject location: Hamburg Wilhelmsburg / Germany', 'https://www.erco.com/projects/community/department-of-urban-development-and-environment-6051/en/', 'ERCO-Department-of-Urban-Development-and-Environment_small.jpg', 'ERCO Department of Urban Development and Environment', 'Department of Urban Development and Environment, Hamburg, Germany', 'Project Department of Urban Development and Environment is located in Hamburg, Germany.

Welcome to the innovative artistic world of Albert Angel, architect and designer, and Lawrence Knights, French-English entrepreneur, who imagined this unusual place. The project is midway between a decoration showroom, with its ultra-design furniture and coloured cork walls, and a Museum of Culture, with its display windows containing animals and plaster items.

An ideal symbiosis of modern architecture and perception-oriented lighting design characterise the ambience and charisma of the new Le Méridien.\r\n\r\nA prestige object from the very beginning\r\nFive stars have always determined the DNA of this hotel, which even before renovation was one of the prime addresses of a chain of luxury hotels. The history of the Le Méridien hotel group began in 1972 with just one hotel in Paris – the Air France airline company wanted to give its crew and European flight passengers a \"home away from home\". Today more than 100 hotels in over 35 countries greet guests from all over the world. Since its inauguration on 1 September 2017 the hotel, as the first Le Méridien in South Korea, offers a stylish travel experience.\r\n\r\nLighting designers von bitzro & partners were commissioned with lighting design of the interior and the lighting concept for the outdoor areas was drawn up by the designers from EON SLD – both companies belonging to South Korea\'s leading lighting design practices. Lighting tools from ERCO translated the plans into reality, and all participants within the lighting scenario have a common philosophy of comprehending light as a further dimension of the architecture.\r\n\r\nStriking outdoor lighting and a unique appearance\r\nSeoul pulses with life. Centrally located in the popular Gangnam District, Le Méridien is the ideal base for diving into the huge city and experiencing at close hand the unmistakable mix of tradition, culture and lively bustle. Skyscrapers and expansive building complexes come together to create the cityscape of Seoul, from which Le Méridien saliently stands out – perhaps not primarily with its size but more through its highly noticeable architecture and illumination. Both features lend the hotel a unique presence, and during nocturnal hours a particular brand of magic.\r\n\r\nA brilliant space can be born with creative light.\r\n\r\nThe light delineates the staircase-like contours of the two building sides from the base to the roof. ERCO Lightscan facade luminaires with narrow spot distribution and a warm white 3000K light colour frame both halves of the architecture to create a radiant pyramid. For the facade lighting, vertical elements as part of the architectural and lighting design-specific leitmotif were also focused on. The facade lighting concept was intended to extend and emphasise the theme of the 1950s from the interior – the lighting thus reflects the planar, linear and grid-shaped stylistic approach of that period.\r\n\r\nERCO Lightscan spotlights with narrow spot light distribution illuminate the vertical lamellae of the facade to create columns of light, uniting both building elements and displaying Le Méridien as a single unit.\r\n\r\nThe lighting represents the responsible handling of light within the urban space, and illumination of the vertical surfaces enables striking effects to be achieved with low levels of illuminance. Modifiable coloured lighting at the base of the building also lends the hotel an additional eye-catching effect. This, and the vertical facade lighting with warm light, serve to lift the building out of the cooler, peripheral light conditions of the city and provide guests with the feeling of entering a familiar and welcoming location.\r\n\r\nSay welcome with light\r\nGuests entering the hotel are received in the brightly illuminated lobby. ERCO Quintessence spotlights with flood and wide flood light distributions illuminate the generously dimensioned reception area, ideally display the reception desks and offer guests good orientation.\r\n\r\nAn innate sense for beauty is firmly anchored within the Le Méridien philosophy: art lends the various areas of the hotel a museum-like character. The artworks themselves are strikingly displayed with light, and as visual hotspots attract the attention of guests.\r\n\r\nThe real luxury factor: well-being\r\nIn the hotel rooms of Le Méridien designed in the style of 1950s Paris, the atmosphere of well-being is essentially created via light. Starpoint and Quintessence spotlights with a 3000K light colour accentuate the interiors of the hotel suites to create a pleasant ambience in the rooms. The luminaires also feature high levels of visual comfort and absolute glare control. The accent light simultaneously traces the contours of the rooms and emphasises the generous dimensions of the private areas. \r\n\r\nLight creates a sense of magic – if the light source is not visible at first glance.

The promenade’s distinctive architecture stems from the London office of Zaha Hadid and is brought to life at night by light from a technical solution designed by Schlotfeldt Licht using LED technology by Selux.\r\n\r\nThe floodwater protection facilities in the Port of Hamburg are gradually being renewed, creating urban planning opportunities in defining locations for the urban landscape – like at the floodwater protection facility for Hamburg’s Inland Port /Lower Port. Here one of the Port of Hamburg‘s most important promenades forms a connection between the landing bridges in St. Pauli and the historical port buildings of the Old Warehouse District, which were recently included on UNESCO‘s list of world heritage sites. The building section starts at „Baumwall“ in the direct vicinity of the Elbe Philharmonic Hall.\r\n\r\nTenders were invited to meet special urban planning requirements and the award-winning design was submitted by the London office of the renowned Zaha Hadid Architects. The extraordinary architecture of the staircases shown in the design, each connected to the promenade in varying dimensions, ensures a high-quality visitor experience and aesthetic appeal. To enable the lighting effect and light mood to effectively compliment such architectural sophistication, Schlotfeldt Licht proposed a lighting solution that was not based on standard luminaires.\r\n\r\nHamburger Hafen\r\nThe light planning for the floodwater protection facility with its\r\npromenade and staircases is clearly subordinated to the strictness of the architecture. The staircases, whose appearance is inspired by wash-outs in the sand, are emphasised by direct light, while the upper promenade is lit using reserved light. In order to realise the lighting concept, light planners worked closely with all involved parties, the customer LSBG, BSU, Vattenfall (now Hamburg Verkehrsanlagen) and Selux. „The technical support we received from Selux was a defining factor in the successful completion of this extraordinary project,“ explained Volker Augener from LSBG.\r\n\r\nBased on the specifications in the design by Schlotfeldt Licht, Selux developed a project-specific LED pole luminaire. Poles are mounted at intervals of between 18 and 40m at heights of 6.5 m or 8.5m, with each pole assigned to a staircase, to which it is tilted at an incline of around 15°. All poles for a single staircase system have a uniform height and each pole bears six pivoting LED luminaire heads, three with batwing light distribution and three with flood optics, enabling various areas, shapes and distances to be illuminated differently. Each LED luminaire head is equipped with its own, DALI-capable driver, enabling a wide variety of light scenes to be programmed via the relevant controller.\r\n\r\nproject: New Port Promenade Hamburg\r\nclient: LSBG ,Hamburg\r\narchitect: Zaha Hadid Architects, London; Jan Hübener, Studio H2K, Hamburg\r\nlighting designer: Schlotfeldt Licht, Hamburg\r\nphotographer: Martin Zitzlaff', 'https://www.selux.com/int/en/exterior/inspiration/new-port-promenade-hamburg', 'Selux-New-Port-Promenade_small.jpg', 'Selux New Port Promenade', 'New Port Promenade, Hamburg, Germany', 'Project New Port Promenade is located in Hamburg, Germany.

They have used it in their new lighting scheme devised as part of the refurbishment of London’s iconic Television Centre in Wood Lane.  The custom-made Yori fittings, suspended within the building’s Grade II listed The Helios lounge, provide the very latest in lighting technology in a stylish installation that has been modified to compliment and work in unison with the original period design.\r\n\r\nThe W12 site was the headquarters of BBC Television from 1960 and well-known for several standout features such as the ‘atomic dot’ wall in front of the original Studio One; the iconic central ring courtyard and its celebrated golden Helios statue around which Roy Castle famously tap-danced back in the Seventies. The site was purchased from the BBC in July 2012 by property developers Stanhope plc. They worked with award-winning architects Allford Hall Monaghan Morris to sympathetically convert the existing Grade II listed building as well as adding some new-build areas.\r\n\r\nThe refurbished Television Centre provides premium retail and office space; three television studios and post-production facilities already being used by ITV, Sky, Channel 4 and, of course, the BBC; upscale residential apartments ranging from studios to 3-bedrooms, all with complementary entertainment and leisure facilities located very nearby; an independent cinema; a private residents’ gym/club, Soho House, along with a boutique hotel. The surrounding area has also been tastefully reconfigured and planted by leading landscape architects, Gillespies, in addition to introducing new community and public space areas.\r\n \r\nPritchard Themis designed the lighting for the whole development but certain key areas shine out for their uniqueness. The Grade II listed north lobby is one of these. This grand, double-height space was the original reception space for the television studios through whose doors innumerable well-known British television personalities have walked from the 1960s onwards.  The more notable features in this area that are of special period interest include an imposing mosaic mural by the renowned British artist, John Piper, now restored to its former glory, along with the original floors and timber clad walls.\r\n\r\nAlmost 200 of Reggiani’s custom-made Yori fittings were commissioned by Pritchard Themis for the north lobby to complement the design of the Grade II listed wooden lattice grid ceiling. They also kept in close contact with Reggiani to ensure that production of the redesigned Yori pendants was to their exact specifications – in aluminium with a special brushed gold finish, a white diffuser ring towards the base and a clever circular plate detail above to catch and reflect the light diffused below.  In addition and in order to achieve the intended final effect, every single pendant had to be suspended at exactly the right height from above the level of the ceiling so that all the luminaires hung perfectly central to the individual wooden ‘diamonds’ of the ceiling.\r\n\r\nProject: Television Centre\r\nYear of completion : 2018\r\nPlace: London\r\nLighting designer: Pritchard Themis\r\nArchitect: AHMM (Allford Hall Monaghan Morris) and Gillespies\r\nPhotography: Guy Archard', 'http://www.reggiani.net/en/progetti/helios-lounge-television-centre/?lang=en', 'Reggiani-HELIOS-LOUNGE-AT-TELEVISION-CENTRE_small.jpg', 'Reggiani HELIOS LOUNGE AT TELEVISION CENTRE', 'HELIOS LOUNGE AT TELEVISION CENTRE, London, UK', 'Project HELIOS LOUNGE AT TELEVISION CENTRE is located in London, UK.

It offers tenants an infrastructure that is geared towards sustainability, corporate responsibility and a full-service philosophy: in addition to cafes, lounges and restaurants there is an in-house daycare center and gym, as well as various spaces for events and conferences. \r\n\r\nThe project’s “high aspirations for urban design” (msm) are supported by the EL-series light stelae in the entrance area in front of the building. Most of the 20 stelae have flush-integrated lighting elements, vertically offset, which radiate to both sides. Satined lenses ensure the softness of the warm white light (3,000 K). \r\n\r\nThe fact that the stelae are painted in one of the colors that match the facade is merely the most visible of many diverse tools that were used to create architectural integration. As a result of their simple rectangular shape, the EL luminaires themselves are a design element that can be arranged in various ways. The EL product range accommodates the architectural design even more fully in that it takes on needed functions in situ. In fact, we crafted the St Martin Tower’s stelae in such a way that elements of the intercom, traffic light system, cameras and tank ventilation could be incorporated into them. \r\n\r\nEach stele was given a position number, which made for smooth installation on site.

Surrounded by the natural beauty of the Euganean Hills, the Thermae Abano and Montegrotto are considered the largest thermal complex in Europe. The SPA & Hotel Terme Esplanade Tergesteo is set in such a context of relaxation and wellness treatments and it has always been a reference point for the guests of the Euganean SPA for its exclusive accommodations and wellness programs.  The Hotel Esplanade Tergesteo renewal program, which has included the restyling of the rooms and the addition of new services for a 360-degree sensory experience, has recently focused on the redesign of the lobby, reception and lounge bar areas. The lamps by Catellani & Smith have been chosen to light up the new spaces, to give character to the ambience and enhance the minimal style of the rooms, achieved by the use of both natural materials and refined furnishings in sober nuances.  A Gold Moon Chandelier that ‘overhangs’ the large reception desk, composed of golden discs with an irregular surface, placed at different heights, welcomes the guests of the hotel. Towards the lobby, which is divided into two distinct areas, a series of PostKrisi CW 70 wall lamps, made of a metal structure and fiberglass shades, seem to ‘chase’ each other on the ceilings, where they create an extraordinary visual effect made of jagged circles of light. The same setting is replicated by a row of PostKrisi lamps in a custom version, consisting in three hemispheres in different diameters, whose inner surface is finished in gold-coloured leaf. The same lighting concept is repeated in the semi-recessed Stchu Moon custom series that illuminates the new lounge bar: covered in gold-coloured leaf, these Stchu-Moon lamps play with light, which is refracted off deliberately irregular surfaces, to multiply its ‘magic’ effect, making the entire object a glowing light. Lederam Manta, finally, with its sinuous and voluminous structure, well complements the lighting of the lounge area and adds a touch of warmth thanks to its golden finish, while LED modules, hidden by its aluminum discs, seem to ‘embrace’ light and create an interplay of shades. The presence of Catellani & Smith lamps is found not only in the new spaces of the hotel, but also in the areas dedicated to wellness treatments. In fact, several half-moon-shaped Stchu-Moon lamps and golden discs of Lederam lamps shine bright on the walls. Many Lucenera floor lamps, which produce a directional and adjustable beam of light , have been placed next to the beds and chaise longue used by the guests of the SPA, to make them enjoy an intimate atmosphere. Even in some bedrooms, as well as in private bathrooms, the light by Catellani & Smith dominates the ambience with lamps such as Macchina della Luce, Full Moon and other models, such as Sorry Giotto and the stylish Lederam, which distinguish themselves for their minimal design.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nSPA & Hotel Terme Esplanade Tergesteo*****\r\nVia Roma, 54 – Montegrotto Terme\r\nTel. +39 049 8911777\r\nwww.esplanadetergesteo.it\r\n\r\nArch.

OMEGA stands for excellence, precision and innovation in the art of watchmaking. Various watches have a cult character, one example being the OMEGA Speedmaster Professional, the first and still the only watch to have been on the Moon. Since 1932, OMEGA has been official timekeeper at the Olympic Games on no fewer than 28 occasions. The last eight James Bond secret agent films have also helped to make OMEGA a well-known name. The recognition value of this watchmaker has also been extended by various well-known ambassadors from the worlds of sport, film and fashion (e.g. Michael Phelps, George Clooney and Kaia Gerber).\r\n\r\nIn early November 2017, the futuristic new production building was inaugurated. This five-storey building was constructed on sustainable principles and therefore satisfies the highest of aspirations in terms of energy efficiency and environmental compatibility. The architect decided on a mixture of Swiss spruce and concrete. The production of watches involves the highest standards of meticulousness and cleanliness at the workplace, and the same is true of lighting.\r\n\r\nParticularly good lighting is needed for the filigree and meticulous work performed at the watchmaker\'s workplace. A long time ago, OMEGA worked with neon luminaires from Waldmann, but now OMEGA places its confidence in the latest technology from Waldmann, in the form of the TANEO arm-mounted luminaire. With its light output suitable for nearly every application, high light quality and ergonomic handling, TANEO provides optimum working conditions and offers incomparable flexibility regarding its adjustment to individual and activity-related requirements. In addition, cutting-edge reflection and light control technology creates homogeneous light across the surface with soft transitions and is entirely free of glare and shading. This makes the work of the watchmaker a good deal easier.

The interplay resulting from organically curved terraces that project at different depths creates a rhythmic and perfectly balanced whole. Interior designers from Hamburg-based firm KBNK transferred the organic styling of the tower\'s silhouette to their interior concept.\r\n\r\nThe interior design concept envisaged the apartments, ranging in size from 60 to 340 square meters, to be delivered to the buyers as »refined shells«. In addition to Behnisch Architects, well-known firms such as Davide Rizzo and GRAFT shaped the interior design of the new tower on the banks of the Elbe. The Hamburg-based firm KBNK Architects took over interior planning of the 164 square meter apartment on the 15th floor.

The site is positioned on a ridge rising from the fiord below and overlooks a natural opening in the forest. \r\n\r\nThe retreat is laid out east to west effectively shielding the opening in the forest, which is only discovered once you enter through the large oak sliding door from the outside courtyard. The clients are a family with small children, and also wanted this place to give room for invitation of the larger family and friends. \r\n\r\nThe conceptual layout of Malangen Retreat project was conceived as several individual volumes connected via in-between spaces and a central winter garden, placed on a natural shelf in the terrain.\r\n\r\nThe organisation provides both privacy and room for several activities at the same time. It also reduces energy needed for heating in the cold climate, as various rooms and activities will require different temperatures. The central winter garden, with fireplace and outdoor kitchen, function as the entrance to the building. \r\n\r\nFrom here the retreat opens up to the natural clearing in the forest and from here you enter into either the main building or the annexe. Each group of rooms are done as separate volumes to achieve an additional layer of privacy, but also to enhance the room’s contact to the clearing in the forest and the contact to the outdoors in the transition spaces in between. \r\n\r\nA few steps lead down to the open space kitchen and living room set low in the terrain and overlooking the fiord and the afternoon sun to the west. A dedicated exit from the kitchen lead to the south-facing outdoor area where the family enjoy their dinners on warm summer days. The separation into volumes seek to emphasize the transition between spaces and activities and tell a story of everyday journeys.\r\n\r\nThe volumes are all made in wood with the exterior cladding (both indoors and outdoors) in cedar panel which was treated with iron sulfate and kept outside for months before assembly to achieve an even patina regardless of being outdoors or indoors.\r\n\r\nThe interior surfaces are mainly in knot free oak to achieve a warmer contrast to the outside of the volumes. The wooden volumes are all slightly elevated in relation to the in-between spaces. \r\nAll the in-between spaces of this Malangen Retreat have a concrete floor to emphasize that these spaces relate to the terrain and the outdoors in a different manner. The ceilings in these spaces are all made of oak slats that through the treatment with iron sulfate turn naturally black because of the high content of tannin. \r\n\r\nThe airy and black ceilings retreat from the visual connection to the outside, while contrasting the visually cold of the outdoors and providing a softer acoustics at the same time.

Around the dining room, large underwater images have a mesmerising quality, and suspended from the ceiling, a giant handmade wood veneer koi, part of the life-size collection by LZF, has a wonderfully ethereal beauty. Created by Inocuo The Sign and LZF Lab, Koi is a sight to behold.\r\n\r\nAt FISH at The Cove, the menu focuses on sustainable Bahamian fishing practices. The signature dish is fried local lionfish—an invasive species, the lionfish is known to severely damage coral reefs in The Bahamas. By catching this fish, FISH by José Andrés is able to contribute towards protecting the archipelago’s coral reefs and local marine life (and a portion of the cost of each dish goes to the Blue Project Foundation, a non-profit organisation committed to saving marine species and their habitats throughout The Bahamas). It is this social and ecological vision that perhaps sets José Andrés apart from many of his contemporaries.\r\n\r\nJosé Andrés is something of a culinary tour de force. With more than 30 restaurants to his name, ranging from the PEPE Food Truck to FISH and Minibar, a Michelin-starred eatery in Washington, DC, Andrés is a celebrated avant-garde chef, New York Times bestselling author, educator, television personality, humanitarian and philanthropist.\r\n\r\nOriginally from Asturias in NW Spain, Andrés is a zealous champion of immigration reform, advocating for the real opportunities it provides to the US. Moreover, the chef believes that immigrants are ‘part of the DNA of America’ (Yagoda, 2018). This year, Andrés was named as one of Time Magazine’s ‘100 Most Influential People’ and was awarded the ‘2018 Humanitarian of the Year’ by the James Beard Foundation (a US non-profit culinary arts organisation).\r\n\r\nOne of Andrés’s humanitarian efforts is the World Central Kitchen: established in 2012, this venture invests in smart solutions to address hunger and poverty, and uses the power of food to empower communities. A noble enterprise, it is heartening to find a successful entrepreneur and businessman who is willing and able to advocate for the human rights of all citizens of the world.\r\n\r\nA noble enterprise, it is heartening to find a successful entrepreneur and businessman who is willing and able to advocate for the human rights of all citizens of the world.\r\n\r\nAs well as the culinary delights found across José Andrés’s many restaurants, design is also ubiquitous.

NVIDIA® Co-Founder and CEO Jen-Hsun Huang wanted to be able to see true, real-time iterations of the project in Virtual Reality (VR) with true light reflected on real materials. To do that, their existing ray tracing needed some work. Now, although VR is making its break into the world of Architecture, it’s never been used like this before.\r\n\r\nAfter the success of its use on this project, NVIDIA® IRAY® (eye-ray) is expected to take Architecture and Lighting Design by storm. According to NVIDIA Director of Technical Marketing Tom Peterson, NVIDIA® IRAY® provides a “physical simulation of light.” And it focuses on \"the physics of light,\" as opposed to an \"artistic interpretation of light and shadow.\"\r\n\r\nAs day-lighting becomes more and more prevalent in space-making, designers will be able to use the IRAY® software to track the movement of the sun, as well as light, shadow and reflection created by the artificial light distributed by the fixtures we manufacture. And all that on real materials and substrates, allowing designers to make previously unknown changes before building even begins.\r\n\r\nDesigners at Horton Lees Brogden Lighting Design (HLB) in San Francisco got to use this new tech first hand. As the lighting pros on the Endeavor project, HLB was able to input the photometry from our K2 Series™ floodlights into designs by architecture firm Gensler to verify their specifications would work in harmony with the 245 triangle-shaped skylights in Endeavor’s roof. Even Gensler had removed skylights after viewing them with IRAY® and determining that there were too many in the original design (venturebeat.com).\r\n\r\nOn the specification of 178 K2 Series™ and 12 Denali Series™ floodlights, HLB’s Vasudha Rathi said, \"The Atrium space at night is lit by K2 fixtures [57W/4000K] mounted to the structure.

(256, 'INA001', 148, 'WILLEMSBRUG', 'ROTTERDAM, Netherlands', 'Hollands Golden Gate Bridge\r\n\r\nWith it’s impressionable maritime flair, trendy architecture, artistic and cutural stronghold, people come from all corners of the world to meet up here, in Rotterdam. Since March 2018, Europe’s largest seaport has been enriched by yet another attraction: The “Willemsbrug“  – one of Rotterdam’s three largest bridges which span the New Meuse, has certainly made a name for itself as Holland’s “Golden Gate Bridge”. The lighting technology used to impressively illuminate it’s pylons, foundations and the bridge’s framework, was supplied by Insta in two construction phases.\r\n\r\nThe „Willemsbrug“ (engl. Willems Bridge) – supported by two pylons, is a 356 metre long cable-stayed bridge that links the city centre to “Noordereiland“ island. In 2016, Rotterdam’s borough commissioned Insta with the first construction phase which was to illuminate the pylons and foundations. To illuminate the pylons – three sides per pylon leg were to be lit up – we relied upon combining two of our lighting technology multi-talents, both of which guaranteed a maximum lighting intensity and a targeted accentuation within the smallest of construction spaces: instalight 3050 and instalight 1065. Eight special spots (3050) in narrow beam 10°- and wide angle 30°- variants, as well as two façade spotlights with asymmetrical wallwash optics (1065) provided for a uniform illumination. By equipping the lighting with warm white and red LED’s, the lighting colour for each pylon leg could be separately adjusted and thus perfectly adapt to the bridge’s paintwork. It was the customer’s wish that the foundations should likewise have an adjustable lighting system that was just as harmonious and radiant. The ideal solution proved to be a combination of a 210-metre length of the fine LEDLUX LN lightline in neutral white and the slender instalight 4010 stainless steel profile with an integrated 5°- optic. The profile in which the LED-lightline was mounted, came as a special edition with an individually adjustable assembly frame which the customer particularly liked. At night, this role model from Insta’s lighting range, highlights the prominent architectural character of the bridge’s foundations whilst during the day is hardly noticeable – and this - was only the beginning: after completing the installation in 2016, it had to be completely dismantled in 2017 due to bridge repairs only to be reassembled again in 2018.\r\n\r\nRotterdam’s Golden Gate Bridge\r\nIn 2018, the second phase followed, which was even a greater challenge for us: The entire lighting had to be focused on the lateral framework – with the least possible light pollution: this meant that no light was allowed to emit upwards into the sky. On top of this, the route on which a permanently installed maintenance car travelled along the bridge, left little room in which to install the lighting to the framework – a narrow opening of only 8 cm in width. As luck would have it, the maintenance car was predestined to do detailed work in tight spaces: With the car’s help, the LEDLUX LX linear lighting inserts, installed in the stainless-steel instalight 4010 profile with narrow beam 5°- optics – including flexible controllable lighting colour warm white/red, like the spots in phase one, were finally installed onto the framework of the supporting pylons’ spires. Due to the extensive installation work just under the bridge, the passage of shipping on the New Meuse had to be partially halted.\r\n\r\nToday, the entire lighting on the Willems Bridge is managed by instalight Control. Glassfibre cables connect individual lighting sections with one another so that the lighting colour can be synchronised and centrally configured. The system can even be remotely managed via internet. And in the evenings, as the Golden Gate Bridge’s smaller sister makes herself known, that little something is added to the surrounding flair.\r\n\r\nProject details\r\n\r\nPhoto: Boris Golz\r\n\r\nBuilding owner: Municipality Rotterdam\r\n\r\nLight planning: Studio DL, Hildesheim\r\n\r\nInstallation: Ziut BV, Arnhem NL\r\n\r\nLED technology and control: Insta GmbH', 'https://www.insta.de/en/stories/willemsbrug_rotterdam', 'Insta-WILLEMSBRUG_small.jpg', 'Insta WILLEMSBRUG', 'WILLEMSBRUG, ROTTERDAM, Netherlands', 'Project WILLEMSBRUG is located in ROTTERDAM, Netherlands.

(257, 'INA002', 148, 'Archiepiscopal Vocational College', 'Cologne, Germany', 'The German Lighting Design Prize 2018 was awarded in Cologne on May 17, 2018. With the Archiepiscopal Vocational College in Cologne, a project that was equipped with linear lighting solutions from Insta, among other things, is one of the prizewinners.\r\n\r\nThe core of the award-winning design of the Archiepiscopal Vocational College that opened in summer 2016 is an organically shaped atrium that should act as the heart of the building, traffic area, meeting place, auditorium and light space.\r\nHere the flanking gallery walls have been faded in using continuous, concealed striped light profiles. In this way, the room can be experienced in all its complexity from all viewing directions.\r\nOrganic shaped recesses in the beams of the atrium galleries are filled with so-called \"seals\". These wooden bodies with round cut-outs accommodate adjustable track-mounted spotlights. They brighten the base of the atrium and the sculptural stairs glare-free and rich in contrast. Open learning zones form partially private niches in the galleries of the atrium. Some of these are equipped with elaborately designed multifunctional furniture that is skilfully surrounded by recessed ceiling luminaires.\r\nThe classrooms are illuminated with continuous, slim light lines. These follow the polygonal façade contours in three tracks and thus illuminate the classrooms in a uniform and at the same time glare-free manner. The track of light follows all changes of direction with mitres illuminated right into the corners. Thus, the light lines can also be viewed from the exterior as spatially staggered outlines. The café on the ground floor presents itself with its staggered wooden ceiling panels that are optically separated from each other by LED light. Functional room lighting is provided by recessed directional spotlights whose design compensates for the inclination of the ceiling while at the same time providing focused, brilliant light on the café tables.\r\nIn the library, the shelf lighting planned by the Keggenhoff interior design company is provided entirely from the furnishings. The reading places are only illuminated from downlights in a Heradesign ceiling in the edge area along the generous façade glazing.\r\nThe emergency staircases are illuminated from LED light strips in exposed concrete recesses. On the underside of the stairs, the light lines form an uninterrupted light graphic and highly functional element. The light lines are largely hidden along the end walls of the platforms and cover designed walls with streak light.\r\nThe light masts of the exterior lighting are at an appropriate distance from the façade. Seats contain sidelights for the paths near the façade and selected trees are illuminated glare-free from the floor.\r\n\r\nWith LEDLUX LS linear, Insta supplied the modular LED line system using which all light lines in the atrium, learning zones and emergency staircases have been realised. Thanks to their compact design and modularly configurable length, LEDLUX lighting inserts fit perfectly into the existing architecture and enable uninterrupted lines.\r\n\r\nArchiepiscopal Vocational College in Cologne\r\nArchitecture 3pass, Köln / Interior Design Bibliothek, Lernzonen und Caféteria: KEGGENHOFF | Partner, Arnsberg / Light planner: Licht Kunst Licht, Bonn | photo: Constantin Meyer Fotographie', 'https://www.insta.de/en/news/newsComponent/n13/Archiepiscopal+Vocational+College+in+Cologne+receives+Lighting+Design+Prize+2018.html', 'Insta-Archiepiscopal-Vocational-College_small.jpg', 'Insta Archiepiscopal Vocational College', 'Archiepiscopal Vocational College, Cologne, Germany', 'Project Archiepiscopal Vocational College is located in Cologne, Germany.

(258, 'WEF007', 68, 'Koombana Bay', 'Bunbury, Australia', 'Lighting the ‘gateway’ to Bunbury City\r\n\r\nThe Koombana Bay foreshore has been transformed and brought to life by a sophisticated and functional lighting scheme.\r\n\r\nWestern Australia’s City of Bunbury engaged landscape design firm Cardno and ETC lighting consultants to work on the project, which involved the redevelopment of an existing beach-front precinct to include a boardwalk promenade, beach-side amphitheatre, and a new iconic bridge linking the precinct to the Bunbury CBD. The area also features a playground, provisions for night markets, a café and parking.\r\n\r\nFor Perth-based ETC lighting designers, the waterfront redevelopment presented a unique opportunity to reinforce the significance of this iconic precinct while also promoting it as a night-time destination both for tourists and the local community to enjoy. “The design embraces the city’s place activation strategies for the area, with the goal of evolving the use of the foreshore as well as capitalising on the unique asset and natural beauty that the Koombana Bay waterfront offers day and night,” said ETC Director Kurt McRae.\r\n\r\n“The lighting features a customised illumination system for the new footbridge and lighting poles on the bespoke boardwalk to the promenade. LED luminaires were specifically selected for their aesthetic form, performance and function in order to integrate with the bespoke designs and lighting effects choreographed across the precinct,” McRae explained.\r\n\r\nServices also included events power, infrastructure for WiFi and CCTV, general and decorative lighting, provisions for performances and events at the amphitheatre and market areas, and photovoltaic power integrated into the shade shelters.\r\n\r\nETC Director Sebastian Corvaia explained that one of the key tourist attractions in Bunbury is the resident dolphin population. “Boat tours are run daily in the bay and surrounds for exploring the dolphins in their natural habitat. Minimising spill light to the beach and bay was a key design consideration, which was addressed by the type and placement of lighting poles,” he said. Luminaires with side-throw [S70] optics were used along the beach promenade and aimed away from the beach. This resulted in not only excellent illumination of the promenade but also ‘borrowed light’ for the surrounding amenities, playgrounds and areas.\r\n\r\n“The lighting was carefully considered in terms of type, optics, placement, aesthetics, scale and colour in order to reflect the themes and technical requirements,” Corvaia noted. A suite of three WE-EF luminaires were used to achieve this, with the criteria being area lighting, accent lighting and task lighting. The design includes several variations of WE-EF’s VFL540 range of street and area luminaires. “The shape of the VFL was selected to match the geometric form of the custom designed promenade lighting pole,” said WE-EF sales partner for this project, H.I. Lighting WA.\r\n\r\nThe contemporary design aesthetic was a major factor in WE-EF luminaires being specified for this project, according to ETC. “Performance, reliability, value for money and back-up support – critical to maintenance minimization for the local government, which will maintain the installations – were other reasons why the WE-EF product was selected,” McRae explained. “Variable optics and outputs within each product suite permit optimisation of design and aesthetic continuity,” he said, adding that the DALI-dimmable function allowed for scene setting and choreography of the various themes.\r\n\r\nDrawing inspiration from the Koombana Bay’s working port, and its historical, cultural and natural features, the end result is a truly unique experience, integrating the aesthetic and functional requirements into an overall considered solution. “The community response has been overwhelming, embracing the precinct, with its new transformation into a unique location in Bunbury, and in the State’s south-west region,” Corvaia added. “The benefits to the community and visitors alike can be seen from the increased patronage and extended usage.”\r\n\r\nPhotography: Jackie Chan', 'https://www.weef.de/#!/aus/news/koombana_bay_foreshore_vfl', 'We-ef-Lighting-Koombana-Bay_small.jpg', 'We-ef Lighting Koombana Bay', 'Koombana Bay, Bunbury, Australia', 'Project Koombana Bay is located in Bunbury, Australia.

(263, 'LMN001', 149, 'Ridgefield School', 'Ridgefield, WA, USA', 'ILLUMINATION FOR A SAFE, SECURE AND INSPIRATIONAL LEARNING ENVIRONMENT\r\n\r\n\r\nLocated in the rapidly growing city of Ridgefield, Washington, the new Ridgefield School building is home to two distinct schools. Sunset Ridge Intermediate School and View Ridge Middle School share the common campus, which was built using funds from a $78 million education bond.\r\n\r\nLSW Architects took the lead on the design and construction of the 145,000 sq. ft., two level building. Consultant firm Interface Engineering was brought in for specific aspects of the project, including lighting. The Interface team had to consider several different factors when designing the lighting scheme for the school, including aesthetics, security and safety, and energy usage.\r\n\r\nChris Roybal, a lighting designer with Interface, explained: “Aesthetically, we had to be cognisant that the users are middle school students, so the design needed to feel friendly and fun. We also had to consider security and safety, ensuring that everywhere from parking lot to restrooms is adequately illuminated.”\r\n\r\nRoybal also said that the Washington Energy Code is strict when it comes to energy use, so selecting long life, energy efficient LED luminaires was imperative.\r\n\r\nThe lighting designers at Interface selected Luminis to provide fixtures throughout the school. Various luminaires from the Syrios product family were used both indoors and out to maintain a common design aesthetic, and LumiSTIK products feature prominently in several indoor areas.\r\n\r\nFrom the outside, the contemporary Ridgefield campus facade is striking. The entrances are accentuated by sweeping canopies that extend out beyond the school’s walls. Syrios SY802 wall mounted fixtures provide even uplight and downlight on each of the brick columns around the walls of the building’s entrance. And the slightly smaller Syrios SY600 wall mount fixtures, with downlights, are installed above all exterior doors not covered by a canopy to maintain design consistency.\r\n\r\nThe lighting designers took advantage of the high-performance luminaires’ 360° adjustable rotation to create the desired lighting effect; both enhancing the contemporary architecture and ensuring safety and security around the building. The uplight on the SY802 precisely highlights the dramatic canopy above and the downlight on both the SY802 and SY600 intentionally pushes some light away from the structure to illuminate surrounding pathways and entrances.\r\n\r\nInside, the common design aesthetic continues. The two-storey brick columns in the large, airy student commons that connects the two schools, feature another Syrios model. Syrios SY602 luminaires direct light up and down each column to create a design accent that matches the exterior lighting.\r\n\r\nOne of the most striking areas inside the school is the media center. This main floor space gives way to high ceilings where the open concept staircase connects two floors. The ceiling is accented by decorative suspended “leaves” in orange and green, combined with unique LumiSTIK CL842 pendants, creating a dramatic effect.\r\n\r\nRoybal noted that this was one of the more challenging areas to light as the Washington Administration Code requires that certain institutional spaces, like this one, meet specific illumination levels. Despite seeming random, the sleek 8” diameter pendants are strategically placed amongst the leaves to ensure the high impact white translucent diffusers provide the necessary uniform illumination of the stairwell and the main floor area. \r\n\r\nAs an additional challenge, the second-floor mezzanine extends over the media center at either end, creating drop ceilings in these two areas. The lighting designers maintained the design intent of the space by using a ceiling mounted version of the LumiSTIK product family. Luminis adapted its LumiSTIK CL822 pendant to a surface mount to accommodate this design choice.\r\n\r\nThe LumiSTIK CL822 luminaires were also used pendant style in student corridors, mounted in groups of three throughout the hallways to enhance corner seating spaces and a stairway entrance.  And LumiSTIK CL325 wall mount fixtures line the corridor walls near the main student office.\r\n\r\nLuminis’ family approach to product development proved crucial to realizing the designer’s vision. The team at Interface was able to mix and match a variety of Luminis products to achieve its goals. The result is a combination of aesthetics and functionality, creating a safe, welcoming and inspirational environment for Ridgefield’s students and teachers. And because all products are high performance, efficient LED luminaires, they deliver energy-saving lighting that meets Code and will ensure the school district can manage its energy and maintenance costs well into the future.\r\n\r\n“I think the project is a success.

This allowed for greater flexibility in terms of use: a technical yet at the same time decorative range that makes it possible to choose system configuration or stand-alone, the luminous flux and the type of recessed or suspension installation.\r\n\r\nYEAR\r\n\r\n2018\r\n\r\nARCHITECT\r\n\r\nEstudio Dovat Arquitectos\r\n\r\nPHOTOGRAPHER\r\n\r\nFerrés - Cánepa\r\n\r\nLIGHTING DESIGNER\r\n\r\nEstudio Hofstadter\r\n\r\nSITE\r\n\r\nMontevideo - Uruguay', 'http://www.targetti.com/en/Projects/zonamerica', 'Targetti-Zonamerica_small.jpg', 'Targetti Zonamerica', 'Zonamerica, Montevideo, Uruguay', 'Project Zonamerica is located in Montevideo, Uruguay.

(270, 'ERC009', 62, 'Grand Basel', 'Basel, Switzerland', 'Grand Basel – custom-designed lighting for exclusive collectors\' automobiles\r\n\r\nCurved edges of light trace the aerodynamic body shape on azure-blue paint and the polished chrome parts sparkle brilliantly. Can cars be art? A question that answers itself in the presence of automotive rarities such as the 1958 Citroen DS \"Le Croisette\". The cabriolet could be seen together with many other beauties at the Grand Basel, a new show for exclusive, classic cars.\r\n\r\nIf aesthetics alone are not enough, the fact that the \"Déesse\", with its central hydraulics for suspension, steering and brakes wrote engineering history, may prove the relevance of the exhibit. As symbols of progress and objects of desire, classic cars always represent the zeitgeist of their creation – and, thanks to limited availability, have long enjoyed the status of both collector\'s items and financial investments. Accordingly, it seems only reasonable that the Swiss exhibition company MCH Group, organisers of the world\'s leading art fair Art Basel, are focusing on this issue with their new event. After all, who else could draw on a comparable depth of experience with highly aesthetic and costly exhibits, but also with a correspondingly exclusive audience?\r\n\r\nUniform light as an aesthetic framework\r\nThe concept of the Grand Basel, which celebrated its premiere from 6 to 9 September 2018, is also based on strict selection. More than one hundred automobiles will be shown – but never more than two or three selected vehicles from a dealer or collector will be positioned in one of the \"frames\" that make up the exhibition architecture: immaculately white, frame-like platforms that are sealed above by opaque stretch film. This homogeneous form of presentation also includes staging of the exhibits with light. In order to convey an optimal visual impression of shapes, colours and materials, both \"live\" and through the media via photo or film, the technical parameters for quality of light were defined at an early stage in the design process. Responsible for this was the engineer and lighting designer Andreas Seiler who planned the lighting and other technical elements on behalf of the Berlin design company Blue Scope.\r\n\r\n\"ERCO individual\" succeeds all along the line\r\nOne challenge was the desire to travel with the entire exhibition architecture. Like Art Basel with its international offshoots, Grand Basel will also make stops in Miami, Hong Kong and other locations in the future. For the technology this means: it must not only be portable and efficient to assemble and disassemble, but must also comply with the various power grids, regulations and safety requirements of the host country. To avoid mixed lighting situations in naturally illuminated exhibition halls, the lighting designers specified a daylight-similar light with a 5700K colour temperature – but also very good colour rendering of Ra≥90. Further specifications included dimming control on the housing and flexibility with regard to the beam angle.\r\n\r\n\"ERCO individual\" succeeds all along the line\r\nPotential suppliers, including ERCO, were contacted for this custom lighting solution. At ERCO the possibilities of individualising product ranges and developing sophisticated special luminaires are brought together as part of the company\'s \"ERCO individual\" service. The option proved to be a winning formula: the responsible ERCO lighting consultant rapidly presented a prototype based on the Parscan spotlight series that already largely met the requirements. Later, during extensive sampling at the client\'s premises in Basel, the individualised Parscan spotlights finally prevailed in a direct comparison: not only through precise adherence to all technical specifications but also thanks to the product design and the winning visual impression. After a few days at the fair Mark Backé still remains enthusiastic: \"It\'s amazing how well the concept functions,\" says the director of the Grand Basel. \"Working with the spotlights in the frames as the exclusive light sources throughout the hall.\"\r\n\r\nClient: MCH Group, Basel / Switzerland, www.mch-group.com\r\nArchitecture: Blue Scope, Berlin / Germany, www.bluescope.de\r\nLighting design: Andreas Seiler, 360x media, Weimar / Germany, www.360x.media\r\nPhotography: Moritz Hillebrand, Zurich / Switzerland\r\nProject management: Reto Ginsig, Expomobilia AG, Illnau / Switzerland, www.expomobilia.com', 'https://www.erco.com/projects/culture/grand-basel-6950/en/', 'ERCO-Grand-Basel_small.jpg', 'ERCO Grand Basel', 'Grand Basel, Switzerland', 'Project Grand Basel is located in Switzerland.

(272, 'LMN002', 149, 'MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY CENTER', 'Detroit, MI, USA', 'LIGHTING IS ANYTHING BUT CORPORATE AT MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY CENTER\r\n\r\n\r\nMicrosoft recently moved its regional technology and training center from Southfield, Michigan, to downtown Detroit’s central business district, taking advantage of that area’s growing tech hub. It occupies the 5th floor of One Campus Martius in a 45,000 sq.ft. space. On any given day the technology center plays host to customers, Microsoft executives and employees, utilizing the facility for R&D, product demonstrations, training and meetings.\r\n\r\nWhile many of the rooms are designed for function, the overall space is anchored by three informal gathering areas and wide-open corridors.  The aesthetic combines residential and commercial design elements, utilizing furniture, area rugs and wall elements traditionally associated with residential design. Illuminart, the lighting division of Peter Basso Associates Inc., was brought in to address the diverse lighting requirements for the project. \r\n\r\n“There is definitely more of a hospitality vibe,” said Elizabeth Williams, lighting designer at Illuminart. “It’s a comfortable, visually interesting space, with areas for clients to sit and enjoy themselves without feeling too corporate.”\r\n\r\nLighting in the common spaces and corridors is intended to set a calming mood, contributing to that hospitality feel. Luminis’ Syrios SY606 pendant, with both an up and downlight, was selected as the predominant fixture throughout these areas. The architect wanted a luminaire that “disappeared into the space” yet still had a strong industrial feel to it to match the high exposed ceilings.  Williams explained that the Syrios SY606 made a lot of sense based on aesthetics, but also because the luminaire was able to provide a significant amount of light in an energy-efficient package. The uplight delivers a distinctive glow on the exposed ceiling to highlight the expanse, while the downlight pushes light to the individual work spaces, task areas and walkways. The black exterior finish of the fixture blends into the dark ceilings and duct work.\r\n\r\nWilliams specifically chose a regressed light module on the downlight for visual comfort. “I wanted to be sure that there were appropriate light levels in all of the spaces, but I did not want glare coming from the base of the cylinder. The lighting had to be comfortable to sit underneath; when employees or clients glance up, they are not blinded by light.”\r\n\r\nAnother component of the lighting design was the ability to create ambiance while still providing an environment that was conducive to work.  Williams paid a lot of attention to where tasks would be taking place, including furniture layout and work surfaces. So, she appreciated that the Syrios SY606 is adjustable from both the top and bottom. “There are giant drop metal ceilings in the middle of the space, which limited the areas where I could place the luminaires. It was great to be able to make adjustments to the lighting on site during the installation, angling the light beams as we needed.”\r\n\r\nWilliams also opted for a Luminis product in the kitchenette area adjacent to a training room. The contemporary Lumistik CL322, a cylindrical pendant with a 3” diameter and a diffused acrylic lens, was used to provide the right combination of ambient light and aesthetics. Thirty pendants form two striking rows down the length of the space, interspersed with acoustic ceiling accents that emulate a “wave”. Williams noted that the training room is more functional and corporate in its design, so they sought to create a break area that provided a contrast and enabled users to “shift their perspective”. The Lumistik products provide a welcoming, comfortable light to the overall space but also direct the appropriate amount of light to various areas such as tables, counters and appliances.\r\n\r\nAdditional products from the Syrios family were used in other common areas to complement the SY606. The Luminis SY310 surface mount fixtures and SY305 pendants are located in the server display areas and Executive Briefing Center service counter and vestibules.\r\n\r\n“It’s great to work with a manufacturer like Luminis that carries lines with a lot of different design options. It enables me to maintain the design aesthetics of my project while fulfilling specific functional needs,” said Williams.\r\n\r\nWilliams concluded that she is extremely satisfied with the results.

(273, 'ZTB004', 94, 'Active Energy Building', 'Liechtenstein', 'A shining example with dynamic wings: Liechtenstein\'s Active Energy Building tests the green living of the future\r\n\r\nAnchored in the gentle landscape of Liechtenstein like some kind of futuristic cruise ship is the Vaduz Active Energy Building. Interwoven spaces and dynamic lines blend to craft a solitary dark form in front of the lush green hills of the Alpine Rhine Valley. The future, which is immediately reflected in the ambitious geometry of the façade, has clearly defined the overall character of the Active Energy Building – a research project developed by falkeis2architects and shaped by experimental design principles, a self-sufficient approach to energy supply and an innovative Zumtobel lighting solution.\r\n\r\nAlive. Always on the move. Forever active. Automatically controlled wing modules integrated into the façade reach up to the sky or nestle so tightly against the outer shell that they almost seem to merge with the building itself. These wings are a key part of the wider energy concept, helping to heat or cool the Vaduz Marxer Active Energy Building depending on the outside temperature. This sustainable experimental construction is the result of extensive research work. Behind the ambitious high-tech project is the owner Dr Peter Marxer, who awarded the planning assignment to the Viennese office of Anton Falkeis and Cornelia Falkeis-Senn following an international design competition. The common goal was to develop a visionary and energy-efficient residential complex – a complex that is not only self-sufficient, but one that also produces surplus energy for the national electricity grid.\r\n\r\nThe planning and realisation phase started back in 2011, when the architects took on the role of research pioneers. Their laboratory: the actual architecture. Design, planning, development and implementation ran parallel, as hundreds of finer details were tailored and tested on site. Each of the twelve modular units is unique in terms of size and layout – and can be repeatedly altered at any time. For the architects, designing a sustainable building was not just about innovative technologies, but also about adaptability. Areas can be merged or divided up without disturbing the supporting structures of the Active Energy Building, so that even a complete change of function poses no problem. To make this possible, the planners developed a minimalist load-bearing structure based on V-shaped composite columns made from steel and concrete. Interchangeable module variants were then inserted in an upward or downward direction, thrusting through the storeys like an organic branch structure. The supports of the load-bearing structure were precisely positioned using a genetic algorithm with predetermined criteria. In addition, all the walls and space-forming elements share a lightweight construction and can easily be removed.\r\n\r\nNature, light and architecture become one\r\n\r\nGenerous floor-to-ceiling window fronts bring the landscape into the interior, where the imagery of the outside world is embellished by a natural colour concept. Zumtobel lighting solutions perfectly accentuate the organic lines of the building and support the sustainable construction philosophy. SLOTLIGHT infinity continuous-row LED luminaires in the living areas trace the floor plan and set the scene for a cosy and modern living atmosphere. As uninterrupted light arteries with a homogenous light surface, these lines integrate themselves into the architecture – and thereby underline the special character of the project. A sophisticated lighting management system allows various different moods and central control, while in communal zones like the corridors and lounges, the simple geometry of ONDARIA delivers pleasantly soft light and helps boost general well-being. The sound-absorbing properties of this wide-area luminaire also make it an ideal option for busy spaces where any soothing effect is welcome. Completing the overall concept, round PASO II recessed LED fittings have been installed flush in the floor to provide efficient and discreet general illumination.\r\n\r\nStructural geometry modelled on nature\r\n\r\nThe upper floors of the building are framed by a steel structure that forges a kind of honeycomb net. The polygonal structure is based on the Voronoi algorithm that divides large surfaces into individual cells and geometrically determines the best ratio of load-bearing capacity to material thickness – and consequently enables consistent reduction of the supporting structure. The role model for all of this: nature itself, which has provided key templates like the shape of an insect’s wings. Heating and cooling vanes are mounted on the façade and the roof has been optimised to absorb photovoltaic elements. When the sun shines, the vanes lift away from the surface and orientate themselves in line with the rays of light. This kind of technology has helped increase the active energy yield by 2.9 times compared to a fixed installation. The resulting surplus is then shared out in the cluster or fed into the general electricity grid. Alongside the benefit of self-sufficient supply, the cooperative concept also compensates for any energy that is absorbed. Usage patterns in the residential Active Energy Building naturally differ from an office complex, but the network of Energy Clusters means that consumption requirements can be accurately reflected without marked fluctuations.\r\n\r\nWith its futuristic elegance, green values and experimental planning process, the Active Energy Building in Vaduz is a flagship project for energy-efficient architecture. And it has already grabbed the headlines in the media and caught the eye of the international architecture scene, as well as featuring in exhibitions in New York, Los Angeles, Vienna and Berlin. Yet the completion of the project has not signalled the end of the research work. The building will be carefully monitored for two years from the initial occupation to optimise both the usage and production of energy. The Active Energy Building really pushes the boundaries of technology – and has the potential to make a lasting impact as a true pioneer in the world of architecture.', 'https://www.zumtobel.com/media/downloads/2018-08-29-PR_Z_Vaduz_Active-Energy-Building_EN.pdf', 'Zumtobel-Active-Energy-Building_small.jpg', 'Zumtobel Active Energy Building', 'Active Energy Building, Liechtenstein', 'Project Active Energy Buildin is located in Liechtenstein.

(274, 'ZTB007', 94, 'Terminal V', 'Lauterach, Austria', 'Step inside Terminal V and you know that you have entered somewhere special. Somewhere that feels less like a building and more like an intergalactic spaceship. The flowing spaces, the futuristic architecture, the atmospheric light – everything seems ready for take-off. Ready for a journey to worlds that have not yet been discovered. But then it gets even better, because Terminal V in Lauterach, Austria, is the showroom of housing specialist Hefel. From here, visitors can embark on a very special journey with the help of the latest virtual reality technology. And the destination? Their new home.\r\n\r\nTerminal V: The name alone sounds like a space station or a launch pad for jetting off into orbit. And the visionary design of the Dworzak-Grabher architectural workshop is certainly just as captivating, featuring a distinctive look that bears more than a passing resemblance to a spaceship. But that is only the outside. Step inside and you will soon see that the flowing, merging and almost pliable spaces of the interior are equally intriguing. Terminal V – with a ‘V’ that stands for both “virtual\" and “Vorarlberg”, the name of the local county – is the virtual reality (VR) showroom of  Hefel Wohnbau, a leading general contractor for residential buildings. Anyone coming here to embark on a virtual expedition will get to experience their own personal world: their new home. Visitors are joined on their cyber travels by a customised 60-square-metre version of TEELA. Taken from “the editions” special collection, this futuristic luminaire has been specially developed by Zumtobel for the virtual flights to these dream homes.\r\n\r\nThis family-run property firm has been putting its faith in pioneering visualisation techniques since 2002. Customers can use the very latest VR technology to wander around their future home before a brick has even been laid. To mark the 70th anniversary of the company, Terminal V has this year taken Hefel to a whole new level when it comes to presentation innovation. In fact, the 4D visualisation platform makes Terminal V one of the most modern facilities of its kind in Europe. And Zumtobel is also on board – in more ways than one. The Austrian lighting specialist has used a tailor-made version of the special TEELA luminaire to conjure up impressive lighting moods that suit the unique look and feel of this unique presentation space.\r\n\r\nThe sensory luminaire, which was developed by the renowned architectural firm Delugan Meissl in partnership with Zumtobel, is part of a new special collection: the editions. The atmospheric landscape of light that surrounds this fitting gives rooms an exceptional aura. An extraordinary ambience. Just like in Terminal V. This is where the “Atelier of Light” project team from Zumtobel worked with the client and the dworzak grabher architecture workshop to craft a customised solution that combines all the multifunctional benefits of TEELA in a large illuminated ceiling. The result is a completely new dimension: this six-metre by ten-metre version of TEELA brings acoustic aspects and lighting elements together in one single entity.\r\n\r\nThe tailor-made TEELA stretches over the rows of seats in the VR space of the textile-like landscape at Terminal V like some kind of heavenly body. As an interpretation of the infinite transformability of light, this installation accentuates the dynamic lines of the interior design. The large-area luminaire gives a feeling of added space and looks almost immaterial – almost as if it was nothing more than light. Pure light, you could say. This effect is achieved using the visible textile layer of TEELA, which makes a difference when it comes to both acoustics and uniform illumination. Right to the very edges. The homogeneously lit surface is also equipped with pivoting spots, as designed by Delugan Meissl. RGBW LED light-lines deliver an indirect output that gives the luminaire a striking levity – despite the fact that it covers 60 square metres. Various different lighting scenarios are selected with the help of an external control, while the downlights, uplights and area lighting of the TEELA can be varied according to the specific requirements and constantly adjusted in terms of colour temperature and brightness. Light thereby actively supports the drama and excitement of the virtual journey into the future. And all within the four walls of the Terminal V building.\r\n\r\nZumtobel enlisted the support of its partner TYPICO to achieve a uniform distribution over the full 60-square-metres of the light-emitting surface. “Together we developed a new type of textile layer, which is mounted inside the fitting to dissolve the individual light points into one homogeneous surface,\" explained Zumtobel associate Manuel Staudinger. “This also means that the speakers, which are integrated into the actual luminaire, remain invisible to the visitors. The outcome: pure light!”\r\n\r\nTo further emphasise the impressive effect of the custom-made TEELA installation, Hefel Wohnbau opted to specify simple yet versatile luminaires in the adjoining rooms and spaces of Terminal V. Luminaires like SUPERSYSTEM II, which highlights the speaker`s podium and the bar. This multifunctional LED lighting tool from Zumtobel can be used in a variety of ways, thanks to an excellent blend of filigree design, fine materials and stringent miniaturisation. And the futuristic Terminal V is not the only Hefel project to feature a sustainable lighting system. As a longstanding and trusted partner, Zumtobel is also proud to have equipped the Hefel office building with a cutting-edge LED lighting solution.', 'https://www.zumtobel.com/media/downloads/2018_09_20_PR_Z_Terminal-V_EN.pdf', 'Zumtobel-Terminal-V_small.jpg', 'Zumtobel Terminal V', 'Terminal V, Lauterach, Austria', 'Project Terminal V is located in Lauterach, Austria.

(276, 'SMS002', 151, 'Surveillance and Security Centre', 'Brescia, Italy', 'A contemporary building in glass, steel and aluminum, whose architecture is inspired by a military fortress. Rising just below the slopes of the Sant\'Anna Hills of Brescia is the new Surveillance and Security Centre for local residents. Previously illuminated by Simes in 2007, the Centre has recently undergone a complete refurbishment and structural upgrade to comply with the new fire and earthquake protection standards as provided by the ARC (Alarm Receiving Centre). The restoration of the building allowed for the optimisation of the existing luminaires and gave scope to new and more functional lighting points for the external areas.\r\n\r\nThe planning requirements\r\n\r\nThe building under renovation consists of two units: a central administrative one and a peripheral and more operative one. While the peripheral part had already been restructured in 2007, the bulk of the work concerned the headquarters with the aim of complying with the prerequisites required by the ARC standards.\r\n\r\nDesign constraints\r\n\r\nBefore tackling the design phase, it is always necessary to carefully examine the constraints to which the restoration is subject to. The challanges can be of various kinds: budgetary, regulatory, functional or environmental. When analysing the building it immediately became clear that the amount of work needed on the structure so to comply to the ARC normatives would require an important financial investment. Therefore, it was decided to concentrate only on the headquarters, and to move within it the more operational functions that were the heart of the structure. By doing so, the spaces subject to restoration have been reduced considerably, allowing a significant cost savings in terms of compliance. \r\n\r\nA further aspect concerns the landscape constraints: the Surveillance Centre is located below the Hills of Sant\'Anna in the center of Brescia, for which a committee has been called to evaluate the architectural impact of the project, allowing the designer to move only within specific design parameters. Another aspect to consider was linked to functionality and logistics: the building is configured as a paramilitary structure with defined paths, a fortress of steel and reinforced concrete with small windows similar to embrasures, designed out of its need to \"Protect\" the activities carried out within the company from indiscreet onlookers.\r\n\r\nThe concept of military architecture\r\n\r\nThe structure of the building is strongly linked to the theme of military architecture, so the design language reminds us of a defensive fortified structure: for example, the corridor that links the two buildings reminds us of a drawbridge, acting as a physical junction between two structures. The theme of the fortified openings  is a second aspect that recalls the concept of military architecture: the staff working inside should not be visible from the outside; the use of such openings with narrow slots allow to achieve this goal and together with the use of a protective film it allows the light to filter through while concealing the silhouettes of the staff inside. The third theme of a military nature is one of the cladding: the external ‘skin’ of the building acts as a metal armour, securing the functions that take place inside and carrying out an important fire-fighting and bullet-proof function.\r\n\r\nThe lighting project\r\n\r\nGiven such premises, it was necessary to illuminate the architecture respecting the idea underlying the project and making it safe but at the same time also graceful. The activities, which take place 24 / 7, must find a correct and functional lighting. To provide the right illumination along the walkways our Zip downlight and  Reef bollard have been utilised: the downlights illuminate the walkway under the bridge in a functional manner, while the Reef Bollard runs along the path up to the entrance.\r\n\r\nBut the most striking lighting effect that has characterized the building  has been achieved through the use of the Mini Shape illuminating the void inside the embrasures : two luminaires positioned on the ceiling and floor are able to radiate light at 360 ° transforming the void into a decorative element for the building and, at the same time, allowing light to conceal the activities  that take place within the operational headquarters. The use of the Mini Shape recessed  has allowed to create a scenographic niche of light, thanks to the possibility of this lighting body to project its light in a diffused way on the adjacent walls, with a beam of light that extends uniformly at 360°.\r\n\r\n\r\nArchitectural project by Arch.

Although originally designed as a window frame light, for this project it has been used for a totally anti-conventional application.\r\n\r\nMinishape, placed within the space between the blades of the sunblinds, uses a defined and controlled ellipsoidal beam that allows to illuminate the two sides simultaneously, where normally two lighting bodies would have been needed. To illuminate the entire façade as many lighting bodies have been installed as window frames , hence 319 luminaires totaling a consumption of 1.900 W. The use of Minishape has greatly reduced the costs of the operation: half the number of luminaires involved, less installation and labour costs, future maintenance costs and energy consumption.\r\n\r\nThe effect obtained with this application is the one of a wave of dynamic light that changes with the variation of the perspective. When observed in the front, the lighting of the façade appears almost imperceptible to the eye. Shifting on a more diagonal perspective the lighting of the cupper blades are clearly perceptible, that scan the façade with a winding and rhythmical motion.\r\n\r\nThe product being dimmable, it has been possible to integrate Shape into a home automation control of the luminous emission: during night time, when the contrast of luminance is more pronounced by the obscurity of the sky, the intensity of the light diminishes, without the difference being caught by the eye of the observer and keeping the scenic perception of the architecture unchanged.\r\n\r\nArchitectural project by BP ARCHITECTS\r\nLighting project by BP ARCHITECTS and SIMES\r\nPhotography by Daniele Domenicali, Matteo Colla', 'https://blog.simes.it/en/how-to-illuminate-a-glass-facade-equipped-with-sunblinds', 'Simes-Twinset-headquarter_small.jpg', 'Simes Twinset headquarter', 'Twinset headquarter, Carpi, Italy', 'Project Twinset headquarter is located in Carpi, Italy.

What are the limits of illumination in the context of art? Answers can be found in the newly revamped National Museum Stockholm.\r\n\r\nFriedrich August Stüler designed the building in 1866 to be a museum flooded with natural light. As part of the renovation, Wingårdhs Architects and Kardorff Ingenieure Lichtplanung set about rekindling this potential. \"The special thing about a naturally lit museum is not just the light,\" says Gabriele von Kardorff, Managing Director of Kardorff Ingenieure. \"It is also the revelation of the view of the historic environment while one is in a room with the treasures of the land.\"\r\n\r\nLighting mood: formative\r\n\r\nNatural light is now falling back into some exhibition rooms through windows and glass roofs. Depending on the time of the day or the season, the light mood outside changes the visitor\'s experience of the museum. The most important task of art lighting is to always illuminate objects such that they acquire contours. The museum selected XAL\'s PABLO spotlight for this task.\r\n\r\nPablo Picasso\'s intense colouring is famous. The spotlight follows his example and illuminates the original works of art with a colour rendering index of 92, almost colourfast. In combination with the intense room colours, PABLO leaves a strong impression on visitors. In addition, the lighting combines art and architecture by using light rails whose swivelling PABLO spots are aimed at both the works and the picturesque domed ceilings.\r\n\r\nLight-flooded atrium demands enlightenment\r\n\r\nVisitors move through the sculpture courtyard as though under an open sky. Wingårdhs designed a spectacular glass roof and created an atrium as an exhibition space. But how can this daylight-flooded and particularly high atrium be optimally illuminated?\r\n\r\nKardorff Ingenieure worked with XAL experts to develop special luminaires that have flexible spots and interchangeable optics, and which illuminate the atrium from a height of almost eleven meters. The luminaires were powder-coated with a special colour so that the geometry and colour harmonise with the surrounding architecture. The minimalist installation keeps the intervention on the historic walls as small as possible. The result is a mythical ambience that need not forego the benefits of modern technology.\r\n\r\nTHE LIGHT PLANNERS | Kardorff Ingenieure\r\n\r\nGabriele von Kardorff, together with her husband Volker von Kardorff, runs the Berlin lighting design office which was founded in 1997.

An architecture with fluid forms personifies this building that stands over the urban landscape, establishing a dialogue with the intense natural light of the Athenian sky. Nominated for the Darc Awards thanks to its solid lighting project, the group’s headquarters fluctuates between design and visual aesthetics.\r\n\r\nURBAN MOORING OF MARINE LIGHT\r\n\r\nThe building, with its 300 m², rises majestically over the city. By day, the natural light highlights the volumes of the building and by night, every element stands out sinuously against the dark. The building is entirely outlined thanks to a uniquely designed lighting solution, capable of emphasising and highlighting the particular characteristics of this directional space. From the curved shapes distributed over several floors, the building is described by two distinct bodies joined by suspended bridges. A true design and lighting challenge that required the use of custom lighting products in order to best present the characteristics of the building, both during the day and at night.\r\n\r\nThe project was designed and developed to be able to have the same perception of the architectural volumes throughout the entire day. The solutions adopted did not foresee direct lighting of the white part on the various floors, but of the ceiling, with an upward emission of light. The effect achieved is that of reflected light. Throughout the building, we find Paseo, a linear bar customised for the project both in dimension and optics, in order to be able to adapt to the various dimensions of the ceiling, the irregular shape of the architecture and the non-continuous demand in terms of power. The product, with asymmetrical optics with upward lighting, was installed on the lower floor. Thanks to these optics, the light is projected with a half direction outward. Used this way, it allows a dispersion of the light outward to be prevented, thereby decreasing the luminous pollution, as well as a dispersion of light inward, which would have been in contrast to the internal lighting of the offices. At the entrance, we once again find Paseo with an 8° light beam that bathes the base of the building to create, in a theatrical way, a clear detachment from the ground. Lastly, in the garden around the building, Twig units were used. A sinuous shaft on the floor, it creates chiaroscuro play on the vegetation surrounding the group’s headquarters, providing movement reminiscent of the waves on the sea. \r\n\r\n\r\nArchitect: Sparch Architects \r\nLighting Designer: Eleftheria Deko Lighting Design \r\nLighting suppliers: Linea Light Group \r\nPhoto: Nikos Daniilidis', 'https://www.linealight.com/en-gb/case-histories/agemar-headquarters/234', 'Linea-Light-Agemar-Headquarters_small.jpg', 'Linea Light Agemar Headquarters', 'Agemar Headquarters, Athens, Greece', 'Project Agemar Headquarters is located in Athens, Greece.

It is therefore important to develop new spaces, actively contributing to the creation and formation of concepts that influence and create the city itself. This is the intent, pursued for years by the Barton group and now fulfilled, of Barton Park.\r\n\r\nThe project was born within the Barton group, a family of entrepreneurs from Perugia who operate in the field of telecommunications, energy and optometry. In facing the need to move the company headquarters, the desire was to invest in a location of the city to be regenerated and brought back to life. The fulcrum? A large portion of land and an antique villa with an annex in the green area of Pian di Massiano. A park that is primarily a workplace for the group employees and one that can be used freely in parallel by the people of Perugia.\r\n\r\nThe main categories of the lights installed, also due to the presence of two architectural firms, include aesthetics, technical and regulatory. In the park we find some classic light saving bollards with a minimal design like Ryo and Joe (both in corten) which surround and guide the visitor through the park. An imposing set of steps, reminiscent of Greek amphitheatres, describes the park in a semicircle, illuminated by several Rubber RGB.

A company of Dutch origin, it manages energy flows on a global level, moving loose material from the source to the customer in the quickest, most responsible and most affordable way. Thanks to their expansion in recent years, the need for a new site had become increasingly clear, culminating in this project.\r\n\r\nThe design of this office aesthetically reveals subtle details and ingenious solutions. An open-office area designed with a rationalisation of the facilities based on their use in order to guarantee exposure to sunlight, especially in the executive area. In fact, the work stations are located close to the windows along the outer walls of the building in order to take full advantage of the daylight. The work area is done in neutral shades, whereas the common areas are richer in colours and furnishings. Great attention was placed on acoustics: the walls in the common areas were covered with acoustic panels and for the meeting rooms, soundproof felt was used. This results in a Nordic approach, deeply characterised by attention to the psychological and physical well-being of the employees, in the selection of both materials and colours. 1,200 square metres of modern offices, elegant and functional, with the goal of creating all the aspects of a quality environment in order to guarantee comfort in the workplace.\r\n\r\nClassic and expressive interiors without losing any intimacy and functionality. These are the guidelines of the new Latvian Shipping Company, on the eighth floor of the Place Eleven centre in Riga.

Its main location occupies more than 85,000 sq.ft., making it the largest service center of its kind in Quebec. When embarking on a $4 million renovation, the goal was to not only stand out from the competition but create a space that truly reflected the company’s corporate identity.  Inside and out, the architectural features are warm and welcoming, descriptions not traditionally associated with a visit to a tire and car repair shop!\r\n\r\n“We wanted to transform what is often a gloomy customer encounter – waiting for a tire change or car repair – into a positive experience that the client can actually look forward to,” explained Nathalie Perron, president of Perron Design, and one of the principals on the project. “It allows the customer to take some time for themselves, whether that means catching up on some work or even relaxing quietly.” \r\n\r\nThis experience includes a knowledge center on car mechanics, and interactive “tire wall” to guide a client through a tire purchase, a bistro, a modern and comfortable waiting area with free Wi-fi, and even a games room for children.\r\n\r\nCreating the right atmosphere through lighting was a key factor in the project’s success.  Lumisolution, a Quebec-based lighting specialist, was brought in to consult on the project. Specific lighting zones were identified to control the ambiance of the waiting areas, café and customer service desks.  In all cases, lighting was chosen not only for aesthetics but ease of maintenance and energy savings.\r\n\r\nEureka Lighting’s appropriately-named Moto luminaire was selected for the area above the café’s counter and work space. Moto’s black finish and unique shape - round yet angular - mimics a tire and blends whimsically with its surroundings. The exterior of each fixture features a pattern of 24 bent “blades” which eliminates glare while allowing light to filter between the blades. And the interior contains a smooth acrylic diffuser which provides soft, diffused light to the area below. The luminaires are suspended from the ceiling loosely framed by warm, wooden design elements.  \r\n\r\n“The aesthetics of the luminaire - the shape and its resemblance to a tire - and performance are what initially drew us to the Moto fixture,” said Annick Tremblay, lighting designer and project manager at Lumisolution. \r\n\r\nMoto’s custom LED light engine will be energy efficient for the shop and require minimal maintenance. \r\n\r\nThe lighting, architectural touches and overall design contribute to a professional yet warm customer space, and it’s a project that has generated a lot of interest in the local community. \r\n\r\n“This is a place that everyone is talking about,” said Perron. “We were lucky to work with a client that had an open mind and gave us carte blanche to maximize the customer space.” \r\n\r\nProject name: Desharnais pneus et mécanique\r\nLocation: Quebec City, Quebec, Canada\r\nDesigner:  Perron Design\r\nLighting Design: Lumisolution\r\nRenovation completed:  April 2017\r\nPhotography: Diane Blanchard', 'https://www.eurekalighting.com/en/projects/desharnais-pneus-et-mecanique/', 'Eureka-Desharnais-pneus-et-mécanique_small.jpg', 'Eureka Desharnais pneus et mécanique', 'Desharnais pneus et mécanique, Quebec, Canada', 'Project Desharnais pneus et mécanique is located in Quebec, Canada.

(285, 'IGZ014', 65, 'Evolution Tower Façade', 'Moscow, Russia', 'Evolution Tower, the skyscraper designed by Tony Kettel and Karen Forbes, became a landmark in Moscow’s new urban skyscape throughout its construction between 2011 and 2014, the year in which it was completed. Since 2016, when it was bought by Transneft, the building has been the headquarters of the largest state-owned oil pipeline company in the world. The tower is 255 metres and 55 floors high and is now the largest and most efficient office building in Russia. It is lit entirely by LEDs and boasts one of the most sophisticated management and control systems on the planet.\r\n\r\nFor iGuzzini, the Evolution Tower was a highly complex project that it completed successfully thanks to its knowhow and by providing a global solution: dynamic lighting for both the exteriors and the indoor offices. The spiral structure of the building also required the design and construction of specific solutions that were perfected with the lighting designer.\r\n\r\nThe tower’s most distinctive feature is its media façade, which is said to be the largest in Asia. According to Nikolay Tokarev, the Transneft President, it is a symbol of the new Russia and can deservedly stand alongside icons of Russia’s glorious past, like Saint Basil’s Cathedral.\r\n\r\nThe height of the tower, its architectural structure, the materials chosen for the façade and the fact that the construction had already been finished, all set significant limits. Given the twisting and tilting of the glass surfaces, products could only be installed externally using mountain climbing techniques, and there were very few points they could be attached to. Moreover, the luminaires would have been exposed to extreme temperature changes, as the temperature in Moscow varies from - 40 °C in the winter to 40 °C in the summer.\r\n\r\nFor all these reasons, a solution was developed that installed the luminaires on the inside of the façade. The designers wanted to create a screen effect on the outside of the building with a series of RGBW “dots” that could be controlled individually and allow colour and light intensity to be changed in order to create different effects, including the Transneft logo.\r\n\r\nA decision was therefore made to light the façade from the inside using an indoor product that would significantly reduce installation costs and difficulties as well as maintenance expenditure. From a formal point of view, the product was designed so it could be attached to the uprights used for the roller blinds. This allowed it to blend in perfectly with the aluminium components of the façade as well as facilitating installation thanks to pass-through wiring. The final effect is that of a luminaire with remarkable lighting and management performance that merges in perfectly with the architecture, even if it is was not created when the structure was originally built.\r\n\r\nFrom the point of view of lighting, first and foremost, the luminaire had to be capable of developing a level of intensity that would allow its visual effect to be seen from a considerable distance. It also had to offer the widest range of colours possible, evenly and without revealing the individual LEDs, as well as observing the overall power limits required to light the façade.\r\n\r\nThe solution was a cylindrical luminaire with a consumption of 15 W, fitted with an RGBW LED circuit and a DMX RCM driver.\r\n\r\nAbout 3600 “dots” were positioned over the entire façade, thanks to a grid that becomes narrower between the 40th and 47th floor to display the company logo. The luminaires are installed on the interior surface of the façade\'s multiple, insulated glass panels.\r\n\r\nIn terms of management, the “dots” interact with the control system, not supplied by iGuzzini, that is used for the building automation of the entire structure. Each “dot” is connected to both power and control cables. The DMX – RDM driver used for colour change management is compatible with the existing control system and offered significant advantages in terms of programming and management, as each luminaire, for example, had an auto-addressing function that avoided manually addressing 3,600 “dots” which would have taken a very long time indeed.\r\n\r\nOnce again, with regard to the global solution, the same lighting effect was guaranteed in the building’s technical areas by using luminaires with a higher protection level (IP65 rating). This ensures they can resist the water released if the fire prevention sprinkler system installed in these areas is activated.\r\n\r\nYear\r\n2019\r\n\r\nClient\r\nTransneft\r\n\r\nDesign\r\nTony Kettle, Karen Forbes, Philipp Nikandrov \r\nRMJM\r\n\r\nArchitectural project:\r\nSkira Architectural Lighting - Dean Skira\r\n\r\nGeneral contractor:\r\nVelesstroy\r\n\r\nInterior architects:\r\nIQ Elforma\r\n\r\nPhotographer\r\nIvan Smelov', 'https://www.iguzzini.com/projects/project-gallery/evolution-tower,-a-distinctively-luminous-landmark-on-the-moscow-night-skyline/', 'iGuzzini-Evolution-Tower_small.jpg', 'iGuzzini Evolution Tower', 'Evolution Tower, Moscow, Russia', 'Project Evolution Tower is located in Moscow, Russia.

The challenge of the design was to provide flexible and diverse spaces for various activities without compromising the heritage of the industrial space. The essence of ABW is to focus on the activities undertaken by the various employees and to provide them with spaces that assist them to be productive.\r\n\r\nKaren Choi, the designer of the project, chose several of the BuzziSpace solutions for their strong acoustic properties and funky, unique look.\r\n\r\nShe says, \"They play an important role in the design and influence the mood and spirit of the space—designed to improve teamwork and breakdown boundaries between staff within the company. The goal was to minimize perceived hierarchy with more open, collaborative spaces.\r\n\r\nKaren is a big fan of BuzziSpace and used BuzziTiles extensively in the design. She says, \"Traditionally, creating an acoustically balanced workplace involves covering the floor and ceiling in sound-absorbing materials, e.g. carpet and ceiling applications.

(324, 'IGZ015', 65, 'The Retreat', 'Grindavík, Iceland', '“The Retreat” is the new space that welcomes guests looking for relaxation and the benefits of the mineral-rich water of the Blue Lagoon, a UNESCO Global Geopark.\r\n\r\nThe architect, Sigríður Sigþórsdóttir, a founding partner of Basalt Architects, has worked for Blue Lagoon Spa since it was first established in 1987. He created the design for the Silica Hotel and other extensions and for “The Retreat” construction project, which began in 2014, he worked with both Sigurður Þorsteinsson and Design Group Italia. The design of this extension seeks to offer guests all the beauty of the lagoon while minimising the building’s impact on the surrounding environment. The building’s layout is based on an in-depth geomorphological study of the rifts and crevices that make up this volcanic landscape and the construction materials have been chosen to blend with the colours and textures of the landscape. The lighting concept developed by Guðjón L. Sigurðsson is based on concentrated cones of light and an intimate atmosphere. The lighting levels are carefully controlled and many of the products used were chosen because of their Comfort and Super Comfort optics and special Warm Dimming features that allow light intensity to be reduced while simultaneously warming the colour temperature. All this has been done to create “Human Centric Light”.\r\n\r\nMost of the luminaires have been built into the architecture or furnishings, a decision that required constant collaboration between Liska, the Basalt studio and Design Group Italia, that is to say, the lighting designer, the architect and the interior designer.\r\n\r\nAn extremely important part of the mood of the new Blue Lagoon structure is the spa, which has an intimate atmosphere with low lighting levels and accent light effects in certain points. The entrance corridor is lit in a highly evocative way with a Linealuce Compact RGB luminaire, set to amber-red colours that filter through the perforated porous material of the walls to create an incandescent lava effect. The colour temperatures used inside the spa range between 2400 and 3000 K.\r\n\r\nThe shared spaces in the hotel have the same intimate light design. The hotel corridor that mirrors the zig zag shape of the windowed side of the bedrooms is lit by 2700 K Underscore light lines positioned vertically in the niches in the walls. In the reception and restaurant areas, track have been installed in a set-back position with Laser Blade and Tecnica Pro projectors mounted on them to offer, where necessary, slightly more homogeneous lighting even if at very low levels, and subtle accent touches to highlight certain interior design details, like vases or paintings. The vertical surfaces, most of which are in untreated concrete are illuminated from above with grazing light from Underscore Grazer luminaires recessed in the architectural gullies.\r\n\r\nOutdoors, the artificial lighting is carefully controlled and depends on small signs and light lines. iWay and iTeka bollards have been installed along the access avenues. Trick luminaires with a 180° light blade have also been used in a very special way by mounting them under the windows of the bedrooms so they project a horizontal line of light that illuminates the seam of minerals deposited along the lava rocks and creates the same “bleaching” effect, at night, that is present during the day. In certain transit areas between the interior and exterior spaces, Underscore light lines, dimmed to a minimum, have been used, while recessed Laser Blade InOut luminaires have been mounted on the verandas.\r\n\r\nParticular care has been taken over the way artificial lighting is used and controlled in the bedrooms. There are very few light points and even the warning lights of the electronic devices have been removed to increase the depth of the darkness. The rooms are modular. The entrance door is positioned exactly opposite the floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the lagoon to wow arriving guests who unexpectedly find themselves right in the heart of nature in a direct relationship with the outside world that cannot be compromised by artificial light. This is why there is no diffuse, homogeneous lighting in the room, but just small light points wherever they are necessary. These include a recessed Laser (Ø 75mm) luminaire with warm dimming, above the bath, which is located in the bedroom, and 2700 K Underscore light lines, one installed in the bed head as a reading light and another inserted in the foot of the bed that is activated by a presence sensor to provide courtesy light at night. A specific lighting system has also been designed for the coat hanger area, which consists of an extruded sheet with three hooks, a recessed Ø 17 mm Laser luminaire and a small Underscore 15 section.\r\n\r\nInside the room, the second “wow effect” is created by the “SoleLuna” luminaire that was specifically designed for this project. The Lighting Designer asked iGuzzini to create a totally natural effect on the ceiling, as if there were a real sun and moon in the room. Guðjón L. Sigurðsson wanted people to look at the luminaire and see the same faint halo that is created around the sun and moon by the earth’s atmosphere. In other words, a highly natural light effect that would blur the perimeter and the area on the ceiling around it. The solution involved developing numerous parts, including: a 1.2 m diameter ceiling-mounted luminaire, fixing plates with LED circuits and a range of colour temperatures combining a 2100 K, 85 CRI amber, a 4000 K, 90 CRI white and a 6000 K, 90 CRI white (the latter values are particularly significant as it is extremely difficult to create such high colour rendering indexes with very cold colour temperatures); cables for adjusting the height of the luminaire; a Clipso acoustic ceiling covering which creates the blurred effect envisaged by Guðjón L. Sigurðsson. In order to make everything user-friendly for the hotel guests, the different light scenarios are extremely easy to control. A small panel has been inserted in the bedhead with 4 buttons to activate the different light atmosphere effects, namely: Relaxing, with low lighting levels of approximately 50 Lux and a warm colour temperature; Energizing which raises the lighting levels to 350 Lux without the amber component; Day with lighting levels of approximately 120 Lux and Night where only the 4000 and 6000 K LEDs are operated with a number of circuits switched off to reproduce the dark spots on the moon’s surface. An extremely subtle wake-up call can be added to this variable light system that has to be booked at reception. At the time indicated by the guest, a 5-minute-long dynamic light cycle is activated, which shifts the light intensity from 0% to 90% and from amber to a colour temperature of 5600K, to ensure that guests are woken up gently and gradually, not by a sound, but by light. All this has been designed to create the highest level of relaxation and comfort for the hotel’s guests.\r\n\r\nYear: 2019\r\nClient: Blue Lagoon\r\nArchitectural project: Basalt Architects\r\nLighting project: Liska - Guðjón L.

(327, 'ZTB005', 94, 'Futurium', 'Berlin, Germany', 'The Berlin Futurium has established itself as the “House of the Future”, representing a ground-breaking combination of visionary future platform, future museum, future laboratory and future forum. This interactive location for knowledge transfers and creative space for forward-thinking fantasy tackles the major topics of tomorrow, including nutrition, health, energy, cities and housing, as well as the critical issues of economics and work. Covering three floors, the venue offers ample space to discover, discuss, explore and experiment. Visitors are encouraged to take on an active role, exchanging personal views about the future of politics, business, culture and science and thereby shaping the future in this unique building. The exhibition on the first floor uses three defined thought-spaces to show how specific futures might look, while the basement contains the so-called “Futurium Lab”, in which people have the opportunity to try out new future-oriented techniques. The ground floor offers space for different kinds of events, including lectures, workshops and other forms of future exploration. A new building opened its doors for the first time on September 16, 2017 under the motto “A day in the future. Futurium open house”. The center will host workshop weeks from May 30 to June 9, 2018, before the opening in spring 2019.\r\n\r\nThe Futurium is also a special architectural addition to the Berlin government quarter. Sculptural forms meet openness and accessibility in the design drafted by Berlin architects Richter und Musikowski. The architecture seems to embody the topic of the future, with high windows offering panoramic views of the surrounding area and abundant natural light streaming through the glass façade into the barrier-free exhibition rooms. The cast-glass façade symbolizes an open and future-oriented perspective and stages a rich and diverse interplay of light during both the day and night.\r\n\r\nThroughout the four-year planning and construction phase, Zumtobel worked as a valued adviser to realities:united, a Berlin art and architecture studio that was entrusted with drawing up the lighting design for the entire building. Three special solutions for the “House of the Future” were developed as part of this cooperation.\r\n\r\nThe individual rooms of the new building contain various versions of the PANOS recessed LED downlight range from Zumtobel: PANOS evolution and PANOS infinity. The surface-mounted and recessed luminaires were specified in a special black finish and feature flush-mounted installation and the integration of emergency lighting. The high luminaire efficiency and powerful lumen packages of this versatile and efficient downlight family provide the best light quality and offer tailored lighting solutions with excellent functionality and a sophisticated, consistent design.\r\n\r\nThe ICOS continuous-row system from Zumtobel ensures efficient direct-indirect lighting in the offices. The unique fusion of direct, indirect and lateral light components enhances the overall visual comfort and means that ICOS fittings illuminate the spaces with outstanding uniformity – and maximum contrast rendition. SLOTLIGHT infinity LED light lines from Zumtobel meet the highest architectural standards and lighting requirements in the hallways. Integrated almost invisibly into the architecture, the SLOTLIGHT luminaires act as a wallwasher with varied functions – from atmospheric staging and general lighting to orientation and defined spatial zoning. \r\n\r\nThe artistic-looking lighting solution features a special highlight in the foyer. Computer-controlled luminaires concealed behind a metal grid ceiling create dynamic light patterns that – based on continuous analysis of the flow of people on the ground floor – “accompany” visitors with an individual light aura. In combination with motion detectors and DMX luminaires, this interactive installation is achieved using a specially developed software from realities:united.\r\n\r\nThe inclusion of a DALI interface was a core requirement for all luminaires installed in the building. DALI (Digital Addressable Lighting Interface) is a manufacturer-independent standard for easy and uncomplicated lighting control, enabling every luminaire with a DALI interface to be individually managed and dimmed up and down via DALI short addresses. Zumtobel was able to meet this essential specification with all of the luminaires selected for the Futurium.\r\n\r\nThe whole lighting concept therefore reflects the layout of the Futurium and emphasises the architectural division of the venue into three distinct parts – from the foyer and the events forum to the exhibition area and the “Futurium Lab”. The use of light plays a key role in interacting with the people and the space. In this way, as soon as a significant number of visitors enter a room, the light automatically becomes brighter. If a particular section is empty, the light simply switches to stand-by mode, which also helps limit costs.\r\n\r\nArchitect: Richter and Musikowski\r\nLighting Design: realities:united', 'http://zumtobel.us/inspiration/futurium_72/', 'Zumtobel-Futurium_small.jpg', 'Zumtobel Futurium', 'Futurium, Berlin, Germany', 'Project Futurium is located in Berlin, Germany.

(336, 'CSM004', 105, 'Villa sul Palazzo', 'Rome, Italy', 'Villa Carrega, built in 1912 as accommodation for Prince Carrega in Rome, has been subject to a conversion project thanks to architect Ramón Esteve, who has designed a new ‘Villa sul Palazzo’, a luxury residence set atop the former Villa, which enjoys a splendid view over the city and the Tiber Valley. The project has preserved the original architecture of the building and its privileged relationship with the surrounding landscape, maintaining a great number of openings, such as arcades, terraces and large windows in the main rooms.\r\nPrecious Calacatta marble, Roman travertine, oak wood have been chosen for the interiors, in combination with mirrored glasses and many details in brass, to achieve a warm and classy ambience. Ancient sculptures and classic furnishings have been set in wide spaces of contemporary style, such as the wide room where a Macchina della Luce has been installed over a large marble table. The room is characterized by many windows, which allow daylight to reverberate onto the hand-applied golden finish of the suspended discs which compose this iconic lamp by Catellani & Smith. The result is a golden lighting, which emphasizes the veining of the marbles.

(339, 'CSM005', 105, 'Casa Melagrana', 'The Island of Elba, Italy', 'Spell-bound by the “Pearl of the Tyrrhenian”, Welsh poet Dylan Thomas once famously mused: ‘Lucky Napoleon! This is a most beautiful island’. Indeed, with its crimson-colored sunsets and clear turquoise waters, the Island of Elba is a place of pristine beauty – a precious treasure chest of nature, history and poetry. Nestled on the island’s western coast, known as Costa del Sole, is the picturesque village of Seccheto, and, perched atop a hill, stands the delightful Casa Melagrana, a traditional Elban house built in a minimal style that makes ample use of natural, local materials. The rustic atmosphere, dominated by the warm tones of ocher and amber, is splendidly enhanced by Catellani & Smith through an array of lamps that are more than mere lighting devices, revealing the spirit and the importance of a painstaking work of artisanal craftsmanship. Throughout the 100 square-meter surface of Casa Melagrana, an assortment of lighting creations combine to sketch out a sort of emotional and sensory journey, where light becomes art in the eyes of those who know how to look. The foyer features a large Turciù piece, with flexible brass arms that can be twisted and intertwined at will. Entering the home, we get a striking impression of spaciousness thanks to an open-plan arrangement skillfully divided between the kitchen, the cozy living area and the quaint mezzanine created during the renovation of the roof. The living room houses the pendant Fil de Fer lamp, a mass of meandering aluminum wire anodized in gold color and dotted with tiny light bulbs, while the kitchen is lit by a suspended Lucenera composition in the version with black carbon tube. In the mezzanine, instead, the warm and welcoming mood is created by a Wa Wa lamp with brass base and structure, copper sticks, and luminous glass lenses that paint fascinating light circles on the wall. The perfection of the circle recurs again in the other piece chosen for this space, Sorry Giotto, displayed here in its table version. The hand-painted blue iron ring conceals within it small LED sources which illuminate the pure and essential shape. As we continue towards the sleeping quarters, we encounter the “jagged” light effects of the PostKrisi collection. A PostKrisi 49 lamp, in hand-painted white fiberglass with gold-leaf inner coating, delicately descends from the ceiling with a bewitchingly “imperfect” effect, as light seeps out of the lampshade’s irregular fringes. To the side of the bed, instead, stands a PostKrisi F64 made of two fiberglass hemispheres that trap light inside, only to diffuse it onto the wall through the uneven and intermittent opening. Finally, both the bedroom area and living area welcome the discreet beauty of Sweet Light, a small luminous sphere in brass-colored aluminum wire that features a convenient touch-dimming system.\r\n\r\nStudio Bacchella\r\n\r\nPhoto by Adriano Bacchella', 'https://www.catellanismith.com/en/pj-catellani-smith-shapes-the-light-of-casa-melagrana', 'Catellani-and-Smith-Casa-Melagrana_small.jpg', 'Catellani & Smith Casa Melagrana', 'Casa Melagrana, The Island of Elba, Italy', 'Project Casa Melagrana is located in the Island of Elba, Italy.

(351, 'ERC010', 62, 'Milan Cathedral', 'Milan, Italy', 'A cathedral of light: the new outdoor lighting of Milan Cathedral\r\n\r\nSince EXPO 2015, the interior of Milan Cathedral radiates in new splendour thanks to efficient LED lighting tools from ERCO. But now the entire exterior lighting of the impressive marble building has also been upgraded to high-performance, durable ERCO LED projectors.\r\n\r\nIn recent decades, Milan\'s city centre has developed to become a symbolic location for international shopping. Luxury boutiques and shopping arcades are gathered around the cathedral, competing for the attention of passers-by with elaborate shop window design and lighting. Ambient light around the dome has therefore also increased. Following renovation of the interior lighting using ERCO LED projectors which lend the cathedral a majestic spatial effect and are simultaneously characterised by maximum energy efficiency, ERCO has now also supplied exterior lighting with a quality to match.\r\n\r\n\"The cathedral radiates a light that\'s symbolic of the whole city. It\'s not only the cathedral of Milan, but also an important landmark for the entire region,\" explained Pietro Palladino, lighting designer from Ferrara Palladino Lightscape. The Milan office was appointed by the historical institution responsible for the management, protection and validation of the cathedral since 1387. \"We undoubtedly improve the perception of the cathedral with the new lighting. The cathedral regains the didactic role it\'s played since its creation: as with every Gothic building, the cathedral was built to proclaim a message of salvation. The facade of the cathedral bears the teachings and dogmas of religion, from creation to the teaching of the saints as well as the entire history of Christianity. This more or less educational function is once again ensured by the increased number of projectors. Illuminance levels of between 70lx and 100lx enable the numerous details of the building to be more clearly defined. The 4000K light colour enhances perception of the Candoglia marble interspersed with various shades of pink-grey.\"\r\n\r\nLED projectors from ERCO in outdoor applications: monumental radiance without spill light\r\nProjectors with particularly narrow and precise light distributions are required to effectively illuminate a building of this size in a densely built-up urban space, without having a negative impact on the immediate surroundings. \"A good lighting concept doesn\'t need masses of light but rather precisely applied, high quality illumination,\" stated lighting designer Pietro Palladino. For the new exterior lighting of the cathedral the designer specified glare-free ERCO Lightscan and Gecko projectors, modified to the special requirements of the project. The \"ERCO individual\" version of Lightscan installed achieves this with high lumen packages, a higher protection class, special mounting brackets, the mounting positions and a housing colour precisely matched to the marble of the facade.\r\n\r\nPietro Palladino divided the new outdoor lighting into three different heights: below on the existing masts around the building and further up on the cornice of neighbouring buildings. On the cathedral itself, the most important statues were illuminated from bottom to top. A total of around 570 LED projectors were installed. \"A large part of the lighting had to be solved by an asymmetrical luminaire arrangement,\" explained Palladino - one of just many challenges of his highly complex planning. \"The mounting locations were predetermined by the obsolete lighting, and sometimes located in very high positions and therefore difficult to access; another factor was that the distances varied greatly. We had to deal with distances of up to 120 metres between the mounted luminaires and the illuminated surfaces on the facade.\" The lighting task was solved with projecting lighting technology based on ERCO Spherolit lens technology.\r\n\r\nIn addition to high photometric precision, specially developed mounting brackets were needed for the luminaires on the cathedral. The luminaires were only permitted to be installed in the joints between the individual marble blocks but not in the marble itself. For glare-free accentuation of the Gothic verticals and pinnacles on the accessible roof, the lighting designer opted for an \"ERCO individual\" variant of the compact Gecko LED projector. These were also modified in terms of protection class, mounting brackets and the colour of the housing to match the building\'s marble cladding. With their slightly conical shape and relatively compact, round housing, Gecko fits between the finely modelled tower spires, almost completely concealed from the eyes of visitors. To ensure safe, glare-free illumination of the paths and stairways on the roof terraces heavily frequented by visitors, Focalflood facade luminaires were installed a few centimetres above the ground on the inside of the cathedral walls.\r\n\r\nAesthetically and functionally pioneering - Milan Cathedral\'s new exterior lighting\r\nIn addition to the possibility of individualising product ranges, it was the reliability and long lifespans of ERCO LED lighting tools that particularly won over the client, the \"Veneranda Fabbrica del Duomo di Milano\" cathedral workshop managed by Fedele Confalonieri. \"Of the more than 800 luminaires installed inside the cathedral in 2015, until now not a single one had to be replaced,\" summed up lighting designer Pietro Palladino. Conversion to low-maintenance ERCO LED lighting tools thus saves operating overheads and also proves to be extremely energy-efficient: inside the cathedral the connected load was reduced from 70kW to 26.5kW after upgrading, although the number of luminaires was significantly increased compared to before. The connected load of the new outdoor lighting now consists of 35kW instead of the previous 58kW - meaning around 40% less. At the same time, the cathedral is illuminated with approximately 40% more light thanks to higher illuminance of around 90lx.\r\n\r\nThe effect is breathtaking when the cathedral\'s new exterior lighting is switched on punctually at dusk: completely bathed in neutral white light, the towering marble edifice seems to radiate from within. The new quality of light now gives the cathedral the dominance in the urban space that it deserves. Or, in the words of Mark Twain, who stood in front of the imposing cathedral in Milan in 1867: \"What a wonder it is! So grand, so solemn, so vast! And yet so delicate, so airy, so graceful! A very world of solid weight, and yet it seems ...a delusion of frostwork that might vanish with a breath.”\r\n\r\nClient: Milan Cathedral institution \"Veneranda Fabbrica del Duomo di Milano\", Milan/Italy,\r\nwww.duomomilano.it/en/\r\nLighting design: Ferrara Palladino Lightscape, Pietro Palladino, Milan/Italy, www.ferrara-palladino.com\r\nPhotography: Moritz Hillebrand, Zurich/Switzerland, Timm Lange, Düsseldorf/Germany\r\nPlace: Milan\r\nCountry: Italy\r\nWebsite: https://www.duomomilano.it/en/', 'https://www.erco.com/projects/culture/milan-cathedral-6965/en/', 'ERCO-Milan-Cathedral_small.jpg', 'ERCO Milan Cathedral', 'Milan Cathedral, Milan, Italy', 'Project Milan Cathedral is located in Milan, Italy.

(386, 'ERC011', 62, 'Polygon Gallery', 'Vancouver, Canada', 'The Polygon Gallery is an art gallery operated by the British Columbia Photography and Media Arts Society in North Vancouver, and Canada\'s largest non-profit photo gallery. The striking new building, designed by Patkau Architects, is located on an exposed site right on the harbour and features the Vancouver City skyline as its backdrop. ERCO LED lighting tools for track were used both in the exhibition spaces and shop area of the gallery, combining a high degree of flexibility with a linear design and efficient visual comfort.\r\n\r\nThe local planning offices of Patkau Architects, which received the commission for the new building, designed it as a striking two-floor construction with a saw-tooth roof. Polygon Gallery is situated in an exposed location directly on the waterfront, on a newly created plaza at Lower Lonsdale\'s harbour quay. The almost completely enclosed gallery floor with its characteristic saw-tooth roofs crowns the large glazed ground floor with foyer, café and shop, offering views into and through the building from the outside. The facade shell of perforated stainless steel shingles enables the building to blend into its urban surroundings and, depending on the daylight makes it appear in iridescent grey and silver tones.\r\n\r\nThe gallery shows a wide spectrum of Canadian contemporary art by both local and international artists with a focus on photography and media art within the context of historical and international exhibits. The architects designed the two largest exhibition rooms on the upper floor to be airy and spacious, which receive daylight exclusively through the northern-facing skylights. This ensures glare-free illumination of the spaces during the day without hard shadows. To keep the difference between daylight and artificial light as low as possible, the lighting designers opted for ERCO LED lighting tools with a neutral white 4000K light colour. In the Polygon Gallery, the luminaires demonstrate their ability to ideally meet the most varied of lighting requirements within an art context – with uniform, glare-free general lighting on the one hand and crisp accentuation of the exhibits on the other.\r\n\r\nThe horizontal steel girders below the saw-tooth roofs accommodate a flush-mounted track system on which Light Board spotlights and lens wallwashers have been mounted. Thanks to simple repositioning, these can be flexibly modified to the general concept and exhibits of the specific exhibition, and also precisely aligned. The orientation of the luminaires pays homage to the so-called museum angle, considered ideal for the illumination of art: the 30 degree angle of incidence avoids glare for observers that might be caused by reflections on paintings, photo works or media art. The convenient adjustability, the innovative lighting technology and the simple linear design of Light Board completely convinced the lighting designers. The control gear is integrated into the flat housing of the luminaires, the luminaires appear completely uniform and identical in construction even when fitted with different lenses and are also visually discreet within the overall design of the exhibition spaces.\r\n\r\nThe architects underlined the contrast between the transparently designed ground floor and the closed upper floor of the Polygon Gallery via their selection of different LED lighting tools. In the large glazed ground floor where the entrance area with reception, shop and lobby café merge, individual exhibits are crisply illuminated with Pollux contour spotlights. In this way the art works set themselves apart from the sales areas and draw attention to the actual exhibitions on the upper floor.\r\n\r\nClient: Polygon Gallery, Vancouver/Canada, https://thepolygon.ca\r\nArchitecture: Patkau Architects, Vancouver/Canada, https://patkau.ca\r\nLighting design: render light & planning, inc., Vancouver/Canada\r\nPhotography: Moritz Hillebrand, Zurich/Switzerland\r\nPlace: Vancouver\r\nCountry: Canada\r\nWebsite: www.thepolygon.ca', 'https://www.erco.com/projects/culture/polygon-gallery-6973/en/', 'ERCO-Polygon-Gallery_small.jpg', 'ERCO Polygon Gallery', 'Polygon Gallery, Vancouver, Canada', 'Project Polygon Gallery is located in Vancouver, Canada.

An impressive new building with a sustainable design has been constructed in the Austrian town of Niederndorf to serve BORA as an administration and training centre. The building houses the firm\'s marketing, research and development, product management, corporate architecture and export departments as well as a development laboratory. Everything looks modern and tangible while focusing on a just a few different materials and playing with traditional influences from the region. Whereas a wooden cladding of traditional, local larch tiles lends the building an unmistakable face from the exterior, clear-cut, natural and authentic basic raw materials dominate the interior. The interior architect Simon Gafriller came up with a design that skilfully creates a contrast between raw-looking elements on the one hand and concrete, glass and extremely elegant interior fittings on the other. A further important aspect of his design is the optimal exploitation of natural daylight and a lighting concept with daylight control that supports natural biorhythms.

The site has seen many renovations and expansions over the years, but none so grand as its transformation to what is now known as the Charleston Coliseum & Convention Center. The two-and-a-half year, $107 million project included mechanical and electrical work in the coliseum, but the focus was on the renovation of 266,000 sq. ft. of convention center space, including the addition of a 25,000 sq.ft. ballroom, meeting space, state-of-the-art kitchen and a grand entranceway.\r\n\r\nA lot of attention was placed on the exterior surroundings.  The city wanted to take full advantage of the facility’s unique location on the Elk River, with the addition of a riverfront park and other outdoor spaces for cocktail parties and art installations.\r\n\r\nEnsuring the grounds are as inviting at night as they are during the day involved very intentional lighting choices. ZMM Architects & Engineers, GAI Consultants, Robert S. Kimball Associates, Inc. and M & L Electric Co. were tasked with creating the lighting scheme. Luminis’ Lumistik CL840 column luminaire was selected to line the driveways and walkways surrounding the façade and leading up to the new convention center entrance. The sleek and modern 14’ high column features an LED housed in a 50” high white acrylic cylinder. Its base is a matte silver corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy. The overall effect is designed to provide a uniform column of illumination.\r\n\r\n“We were looking for something that did not overpower or underpower the space,” said Robert S. Kimball, president of Robert S. Kimball Associates, Inc. “The fixture provides excellent visibility and safety with 360° of illumination along the walkway, but it’s a controlled light without being harsh. Everything has a white opaque color to it, with no hard edges.”\r\n\r\nGuests who choose to arrive at the venue via boat are well-serviced with docking facilities and a pathway leading up to the Center. The landscaping in this area is quite unusual – the new convention center lobby and reception space is elevated and cantilevered over a low slope that leads to the water. Finding the appropriate lighting to offer a safe and secure environment for boaters and pedestrians was paramount.\r\n\r\nA series of Luminis’ Syrios SY810 exterior ceiling fixtures are installed along the overhang. The unique design of the SY810 enables the light module to be aimed exactly where the light needs to be; in this case the light is directed down to the pathway and docks below, ensuring safe passage.  The lighting also serves to highlight the center’s building supporting columns along the path, providing a striking reflection when viewed from across the river. The Syrios fixture is known for its durability, providing superior lighting performance that will withstand the rigors of a West Virginia summer or winter, whether wet or dry.\r\n\r\nThe project specifications clearly mandated that the most energy-efficient LED fixtures be provided. Both Syrios and Lumistik high-performance luminaires exceeded the project requirements. The post-renovation facility is now significantly more energy-efficient across its daily operations, including its lighting.\r\n\r\nThe city of Charleston anticipates that the renovation of this landmark will be a positive investment for the community - and the state of West Virginia - as it seeks to attract more convention visitors to the city and stimulate more tourism. But it will also be a gathering place for its own citizens. Striking building design and inspiring landscaping and lighting create the right combination of awe and warmth that will welcome visitors for many years to come.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nProject Name: Charleston Coliseum & Convention Center\r\nProject completion:  October 2018\r\nLuminis Agent: Robert S.

The installation is hosted in the Courtyard of Honour of Palazzo Litta, an historical mansion in the center of Milan.\r\n\r\nEcho is a mysterious structure that merges interior with exterior. Man is the centre of this installation, simultaneously the subject and source of contemplation. The exterior of Echo, covered with a mirrored surface, reflects the baroque colonnade and the two upper orders that make up the courtyard of the building. In contrast, the interior reveals the sky, a natural element isolated from the surrounding city. The result of this exploration is the definition of architecture perceived as a shared and reflective experience, at the same time imposing itself on and immersing itself in the setting. The installation establishes a relationship between art and architecture amplifying the surrounding environment through a visual echo.\r\n\r\nThanks to the specific knowledge of Flos Bespoke in the production of custom solutions and to the innovative technology of the Home, Architectural e Outdoor collections, Flos has developed a warm, discreet lighting project that perfectly integrates with the architecture of the Courtyard of Honour and the marvellous porch, thus contributing to the poetic essentiality of the work.\r\n\r\nPiero Gandini, Chairman of Design Holding and CEO of Flos, strongly believed in the project from the very beginning.

A UNESCO World Heritage Site in the Liguria region of north-west Italy, Cinque Terre is a place filled with colourful homes, robust vineyards, hardy fishermen and bustling trattorias.\r\n\r\nTaking its name from the Italian region, Cinque Terre Ristorante in Seattle is filled with the smells and tastes of Liguria: from fresh mussels and octopus to anchovies and shrimp, and from artisanal pasta and pesto to handmade focaccia. Doubtless worth a visit if you happen to be in Seattle, at Cinque Terre Ristorante you can enjoy fine Italian fare in the company of LZF’s Link lamp.\r\n\r\nLZF’s lustrous lamps are often used in a range of restaurant projects, from the ethereal Koi in FISH by José Andrés (the Bahamas) to the spectacular Candelabro in Restaurante Alameda (Madrid) and the affable Link floor lamp in Restaurant La Boscana (Lleida). Organic, physical and tactile, LZF’s carefully crafted range of wood veneer lamps add warmth and charm to any environment. Their noble, natural, versatile and aesthetic qualities, are just a few of the reasons they appeal to restaurants (and many similar settings). In Cinque Terre Ristorante, a modern Italian eatery in Seattle, LZF’s Link lamp is easy on the eye, the perfect addition to this contemporary space.\r\n\r\nOne of the key attributes of wood veneer in lighting design is its beautiful translucent aspect. When illuminated, the wood veneer heightens the atmosphere of a room, stimulates conversation and creates intimate moments of pleasure.

(468, 'LMN004', 149, 'The Exploration Centre of the Rivierè-des-Mille-Îles Park', 'Laval, QC, Canada', '“Urban by nature” inspires the lighting design of LEED-certified visitor centre\r\n\r\nThe Rivierè-des-Mille-Îles Park encompasses an array of natural forest, waterways, marshland and coastline in the city of Laval, Quebec. With its exceptional biodiversity, it’s a unique natural attraction for the city, and welcomes over 150,000 visitors annually. \r\n\r\nThe Exploration Centre is the latest addition to the park and was built as the main visitor welcome area. The pavilion stands out with its modern and avant-garde architecture, and magnificent view of the nearby river. \r\n\r\nLuminis’ high performance Syrios LED fixtures were selected to illuminate the welcome centre both inside and out. The project’s lighting designer capitalized on the Syrios family’s flexible design potential, integrating a combination of exterior wall-mounted, and interior wall-mounted and pendant luminaires within the family. \r\n\r\nThe contemporary cylindrical design of the Syrios luminaires, all with a matte black finish, enhance the Exploration Centre’s dramatic mix of modern and rustic, with its large wooden beams, giant windows and a grand hall. The overall architecture and lighting design are aligned with the city’s strategic vision of “Urban by nature”.\r\n\r\nEnergy efficiency was also a factor in the decision to use Luminis fixtures, as the building was built to the specifications of the LEED New Construction 2009 GOLD certification. The stringent process required that the Centre achieve high performance in key areas of health and the environment, including water and energy savings, recuperation of rain water and natural ventilation.\r\n\r\nThe energy-saving features of the Syrios family successfully adhere to the strict LEED GOLD certification criteria. All luminaires are designed for performance, reliability and durability. Each fixture features an integral LED sealed light module designed for optimal heat dissipation and lighting performance. \r\n\r\nThe exterior of the split-level pavilion is a striking mix of wood siding and large floor-to-ceiling windows. The main entrance and wraparound patio stand out with a sweeping overhang canopy of steel and wooden beams. Luminis’ Syrios SY602 fixtures are mounted on the wood panels between windows; the uplight accentuates the wooden canopy above and the downlight pushes light to the surrounding visitor walkway and patio below. \r\n\r\nAdditional Syrios SY602 luminaires are installed around the perimeter of the pavilion, highlighting the facade and offering Centre employees and evening visitors a well-lit passage along a small path that hugs the building. The unique tilting mechanism in the luminaires provides full adjustability of the light module so that the light beam can be directed exactly where it is needed. \r\n\r\nLuminis’ Syrios SY600 downlight is mounted over each of the secondary doorways around the Centre’s exterior. The same tilting mechanism in the fixture ensures each light beam is precisely aimed to illuminate its doorway entrance. \r\n\r\nWith the mix and match design capabilities of the Syrios family exterior and interior fixtures, the lighting scheme flows seamlessly indoors. The main floor of the centre is accessed via a vestibule which is illuminated by Syrios SY806 up/down pendants suspended from the lower ceiling. Visible from the approaching walkway, light from the black cylinders is precisely directed to provide a safe, welcoming illumination for visitors.\r\n\r\nPast the vestibule, the main floor of the Exploration Centre immediately opens up to the grand hall. Exposed wooden ceiling beams, a black steel drop ceiling and walls of glass overlooking the river continue to embrace the “Urban by nature” theme. \r\n\r\nWhile the space benefits from significant natural light, the Syrios family of luminaires continues to play a key role in the beautiful hall. Clusters of Syrios SY306, SY606 and SY806 up/downlight pendants are suspended from the high ceilings. These particular fixtures are distinguishable by their varying diameters (3”, 6” and 8”); the mix of sizes offers an interesting visual design element while illuminating the floor surface below.\r\n\r\nSyrios SY602 interior up/downlights are featured along the vertical wall of the black steel drop ceiling; the fixture blends into its dark background, so the focus is on the illumination. The uplight showcases the high wooden ceiling and the downlight provides illumination to the floor space that separates the lower ceilings of the café, exposition hall and multipurpose room from the great room itself.\r\n\r\nThe Exploration Centre, and the park itself, is a natural jewel for the city of Laval, and its citizens will enjoy, and learn from, the protected wildlife, waterways, and islands for generations to come.  Its investment in a facility that is LEED certified, including energy-efficient lighting, means minimal impact on the environment it serves to showcase and protect.\r\n\r\n\r\nPROJECT NAME: Centre d’exploration du Parc de la Rivière-des-Mille-Îles\r\nLOCATION: Laval, Quebec, Canada\r\nCATEGORY: Exterior Lighting, Interior Lighting\r\nPROJECT COMPLETION: March 2019\r\nPHOTOGRAPHY: David Boyer', 'https://www.luminis.com/inspiration/featured-projects/urban-by-nature-inspires-the-lighting-design-of-', 'Luminis-The-Exploration-Centre-of-the-Rivierè-des-Mille-Îles-Park_small.jpg', 'Luminis The Exploration Centre of the Rivierè-des-Mille-Îles Park', 'The Exploration Centre of the Rivierè-des-Mille-Îles Park, Laval, QC, Canada', 'Project The Exploration Centre of the Rivierè-des-Mille-Îles Park is located in Laval, QC, Canada.

(498, 'IGZ016', 65, 'Under. Europe\'s first underwater restaurant', 'Under. Europe\'s first underwater restaurant. Lindesnes, Norway', 'At the southernmost tip of the Norwegian coastline, at a small place called Båly in the municipality of Lindesnes, Snøhetta has designed Europe’s very first underwater restaurant.\r\n\r\nThe building’s imposing monolithic form was built on a barge moored at its future location and then lowered into the sea and fixed to the ocean bottom using steel rods. The result is a structure that rests on the craggy shoreline, but is partly submerged beneath the waves so it actually becomes part of the marine environment. Under was designed with particular care for its marine context. Its elegantly sleek concrete structure has a deliberately rough surface for mussels to cling to. Over time, as this mollusc community grows, the submerged monolith will become an artificial mussel reef that functions dually to rinse the sea and naturally attract more marine life to its purified waters.\r\n\r\nWith its half meter-thick concrete walls, the structure is built to withstand the pressure and shock of rugged sea conditions. Its massive panoramic acrylic window - 11 x 4 m - with thickness of 288 mm offers a view of the sea bed and the way it changes with the seasons and different weather conditions. Under’s architecture, menu and teaching mission are all designed to give visitors an experience that stuns the senses and combines a feeling of wonder and awe at the power of nature.\r\n\r\nThe restaurant also houses an interdisciplinary research team who study marine biology and fish behaviour. These researchers will help create the best possible conditions for fish and molluscs to prosper in, next to a restaurant that can comfortably seat 100 guests. A modest lighting system in the restaurant draws diners’ attention to the underwater life outside the window.\r\n\r\nThe visitor’s experience involves a descent through three levels, just like a deep sea dive, but with no wet suit or oxygen tank. From the entrance, guests enter the wardrobe area and then continue down a floor to the Champagne Bar, which marks the transition between the shoreline and the ocean. This physical transformation is emphasized by a narrow acrylic window that cuts vertically through the restaurant levels. From the bar, guests can look down at the seabed level of the restaurant, where two long dining tables and several smaller tables are placed in front of the large panoramic window.\r\n\r\nThe restaurant\'s colour scheme follows the logic of the different construction areas. So the Champagne Bar is characterised by the subtle colours of the surrounding coastline and its shell, rock and sand sediments, while the Dining Room is submerged in darker blues and greens inspired by the seabed, seaweed and restless waves. An intimate atmosphere is also created in the restaurant interiors thanks to the contrast between the structure’s warm oak panelling and the rough colouring of its concrete shell. It is the shell that houses the lighting system too. Designed by AF Lighting who tested various solutions before making their final choice, it consists of approximately 400 one-cell, recessed Laser Blade XS luminaires positioned in a way that ensures their light is focused on the tables. At the same time, it leaves the general environment in semi-darkness to respect the depths of the sea and leave the marine life undisturbed. The compact dimensions of the luminaires mean they are completely concealed in the ceiling and thanks to their special features they look as if they are off even when seen from different perspectives.\r\n\r\nThe service lighting system, required for table service, has also been reduced to a minimum thanks to the use of tags that interact with the luminaires. So the Laser Blade XS luminaires come on when waiters approach and turn off once they have passed. This means an atmosphere of intimacy is created for the guests and respect for the marine environment is guaranteed.\r\n\r\nYear: 2019\r\n\r\nClient: Gaute and Stig Ubostad\r\n\r\nArchitectural project: Snøhetta\r\n\r\nLighting project: ÅF Lighting - Morten Jensen\r\n\r\nConstruction: SubMar Group (wave and marine operations calculations) BRG\r\nAsplan Viak\r\n\r\nPhotographer: Tomasz Majewski', 'https://www.iguzzini.com/projects/project-gallery/under-europes-first-underwater-restaurant/', 'iGuzzini-Under_small.jpg', 'iGuzzini Under', 'Under.

Floating like billowy clouds above the rather dapper restaurant floor, the Link lamps crown this orderly, yet curious, space. \r\n\r\nA description of Ladon Restaurante reveals a somewhat puzzling but enchanting narrative, one in which a dragon with a hundred heads guards over the place. The dragon’s name is ‘Ladon’ (from Greek mythology) and it zealously protects a golden apple tree, puffing a fiery breath at anyone who dares to approach the tree. This fanciful tale was brought to life by José Manuel Ferrero of Valencia-based estudi{H}ac. Working with a large floor space of 660 m2, estudi{H}ac divided the restaurant into a number of areas by using a variety of textures, sensations, colours and furnishings. The studio’s aim was to create an atmosphere that conveyed both fantasy and dreams. \r\n\r\nAsh tones, with splashes of earth, green and red, are used throughout the restaurant’s interior. In the lobby, walls and floors made from volcanic stone, along with copper structures, black ceramic ‘scales’ and the image of a dragon’s skin, welcome diners. The dragon’s fire takes the form of an imposing barbecue and a combination of lighting fixtures are used to denote its tail. Tenerife’s folklore and its vivid vegetation are represented by a large, undulating wooden structure that symbolises the golden apple tree. The overall project was clearly an imaginative endeavour by estudi{H}ac. \r\n\r\nLadon Restaurante sits within the Fantasia Bahia Principe Tenerife, an all-inclusive resort from Grupo Piñero, a Spanish tourism group. The resort is billed as a ‘family vacation paradise in Spain [that] will thrill children and adults alike.’ In this fantasy retreat, guests reside in the Hesperides Garden. Back to Greek mythology, the Hesperides were nymphs of the sunset, tasked with taking care of the garden, in which there were apple trees with golden apples—these golden apples were believed to give immortality to anyone who consumed them. As well as the nymphs, Ladon—that fiery dragon with a hundred heads—also protected the trees (perhaps the Link lamps are billowy wisps of smoke from Ladon’s fiery breath?). \r\n\r\nLadon Restaurante happens to be a steakhouse, meaning its fiery dragon is busy cooking an array of flavourful meats as well as guarding the golden apple tree. Now that is one multitasking mythical monster.\r\n\r\nThe award-winning handmade wood veneer Link lamp is designed by Ray Power and you can find more details here.\r\n\r\nPhotography by Adrián Mora Morato.', 'https://lzf-lamps.com/blog/lzfs-link-keeps-company-with-ladon-the-fiery-dragon/', 'LZF-LADON_small.jpg', 'LZF LADON Restaurante', 'LADON Restaurante, Tenerife, Spain', 'Project LADON Restaurante is located in Tenerife, Spain.

Up to You Studio, a creative agency based in Barcelona and Hamburg, that specializes in global design projects around the world. Applying the same refined standards to two Roman airports as they would any upscale design project, they have reimagined the passenger lounge space for the international company Avia Partner.\r\n\r\nThe city’s Fiumicino airport features three lounges by the firm, all of which incorporate Vibia lighting in their contemporary designs.\r\n\r\nThe Star Alliance lounge in Terminal 3 exudes modern Italian style—sleek without sacrificing comfort. Highlighting the local culture, Up to You selected all Italian-made furnishings. For the lighting, they opted for several Vibia fixtures. The Mayfair table lamp by Diego Fortunato tops side tables in various seating areas. Crafted of gleaming gold-finished metal, it’s an updated version of the traditional 18th-century century bouillotte light and offers an elegant, understated note to the space.\r\n\r\nPunctuating a row of upholstered lounge chairs is a series of Pin floor lamps. Designed by Ichiro Iwasaki, they feature a long arm and adjustable head for relaxed reading while its streamlined silhouette allows the striking louvered wall behind them to take center stage.\r\n\r\nDirectly opposite hangs an installation of Puck Wall Art by Jordi Vilardell. A grouping of disks superimposed upon one another, the soothing organic orbs form a moody mural that recall a solar eclipse.\r\n\r\nSuspended from the ceiling in the bar area is Arik Levy’s Wireflow Lineal. The two-dimensional fixture traces an airy outline that illuminates the space and allows a clear view of the distinctive geometric shelving.\r\n\r\nLe Anfore VIP lounge in Terminal 3 of Fiumicino airport is another Up to You Studio creation. Channeling an industrial revolution influence, it’s marked by brick walls and steel window frames with muted tones of grey and copper that recall the look of metal.\r\n\r\nThe Wireflow chandelier by Arik Levy brightens the space and provides a dramatic focal point overhead. Its three-dimensional form is composed of black electrical cables that hold aloft pressed-glass LED light points, reinforcing the upscale factory feel.\r\n\r\nThe Studio also featured Levy’s Wireflow chandelier in the airport’s Sala Avia lounge, where pale wooden floors and brick walls combine with spare furnishings for a modern, welcoming atmosphere.\r\n\r\nThe fixture offers a dramatic ring of light yet its open form ensures it doesn’t dominate the space.\r\n\r\nRounding out the room is the Mayfair table lamp.\r\n\r\nA single fixture in white adds a refined note to the cabinet where it rests, while a row of black Mayfairs along a swath of bar-style seating lends it the look of a library.\r\n\r\nIn Rome’s smaller Ciampino Airport, Up to You designed the Avia Lounge for pilots and flight attendants. Inspired by the idea of a horizon, they chose a calming blue colour scheme along with simple décor and soothing lighting—all ideal for setting a relaxed mood before flights.\r\n\r\nA pair of black Mayfair table lamps provides a timeless touch along a counter seat, while the Pin floor lamp creates a contemporary, cozy seating area when positioned beside low side tables.', 'https://www.vibia.com/en/brightens-romes-airport-lounges/', 'Vibia-Rome-Airport-Lounges_small.jpg', 'Vibia Rome’s Airport Lounges', 'Rome’s Airport Lounges, Rome, Italy', 'Project Rome’s Airport Lounges is located in Rome, Italy.

All the barriers that normally characterise banks and their dealings with customers have been completely done away with. In addition, the very latest technologies make the entire infrastructure largely invisible. The bank itself becomes an open space that is more redolent of the high-end designs of classy boutiques than the sobriety of a banking hall. Thus, all the walls are designed as elegantly flowing membranes, enabling communication between the various functional areas such as the lounge, where customers can find information on the latest products and services, and those spaces where people can withdraw to do business – in particular the work areas and meeting rooms. The concept of the architects therefore casts the differently assigned areas into a smooth continuum – a pleasant effect that is strengthened by the dynamic lighting. Above the workstations, XAL Meno luminaires are integrated into the ceiling for powerful accents while the warmth required in the meeting rooms is mostly provided through indirect light.\r\n\r\nMeanwhile, the wall panelling appears at first sight to be a random arrangement of triangular omissions.

(544, 'LSF004', 121, 'Moonwalk', 'NEW ORLEANS, LA​', 'The Moonwalk, named after Mayor Moon Landrieu who led its development, first opened in 1975. The walkway was originally a wooden boardwalk. In the 1980s, it underwent a reconstruction that introduced more hardscape elements into the walkway. Three is indeed the charm for Moonwalk; the latest incarnation was dedicated in 2018 in conjunction with the city’s tri-centennial celebration and as an homage from then Mayor Mitch Landrieu to his father.\r\n\r\nThe design team at Perez envisioned a walkway that celebrated its location in the heart of the city and invited residents and tourists to wander from the city to the river. Beyond its location in the heart of the city, Moonwalk also offers spectacular views of the Crescent City Connection Bridge, Mississippi River, and St. Louis Cathedral.\r\n\r\n“We wanted to make better connections from the city to Moonwalk,” says lead landscape architect Brandon Adams. “Now there is a connection from Jackson Square to Washington Artillery Park and a large plaza area with concrete steps the width of the park that lead down to the river.” The reconstruction includes a wider walkway that is built on top of the levee, new lighting, and the addition of shade trees lining the walkway. Landscape Forms’ Ashbery area and path lights, which also line the walkway and gathering areas, add an historical feel to a public walkway surrounded by 300 years of history.\r\n\r\n“Ashbery lights echo the history of the French Quarter but do so with a contemporary version of a classic gas lantern design,” explains Adams. “Ashbery gave us elements of history and benefits of LED technology.” (Interestingly, the Spanish Plaza, adjacent to Moonwalk, is also undergoing reconstruction, and the lead landscape architect for that project selected Ashbery lights for the very reasons Adams expresses.) In total, 22 18-foot-tall area lights and 36 path lights were installed along Moonwalk.\r\nThree designated nodes along Moonwalk provide spaces for people to sit and gather. “It was important to also connect these destination points within the Moonwalk parkway,” says Adams. The central node is the Moonwalk Plaza, which connects to Washington Artillery Park. The large gathering area features steps that provide tourists and locals with ample spaces to watch the river and surroundings. Two other gathering nodes are located at the ends of Dumaine Street and St. Phillip Street. Theses gathering spaces are furnished with Landscape Forms’ Presidio benches and Poe litter receptacles. The team at Perez liked the design of the benches as well as their durability, “perfect for urban environments.\"\r\n\r\nBased on its use, reviews of the revitalized Moonwalk are positive. “Moonwalk is a busy place, both day and night,” says Adams. “The wide walkway encourages people to come and walk and linger. The concrete steps leading down to the river are now 70-feet wide, quite a change from the previous 25-foot wide wood steps. The steps, lighting, benches, and tree-lined walkway “enhance the space and make people want to stay longer,” says Adams.\r\n\r\nLandscape Forms Business Development Representative Mallary Morvant agrees. “Moonwalk offers amazing views of the Mississippi River, the Crescent City Connection Bridge, and Algiers Point across the river. Turn around and you see Jackson Square and the St. Louise Cathedral. None of this was possible before because the sea wall blocked the view. Now Moonwalk is built on top of the levee and offers views like we’ve never had before.”​\r\n\r\nLandscape Forms Elements: Ashbery Area Lights, Ashbery Path Lights, Presidio Benches, Poe Litters​​\r\n\r\nDesign Partners: Perez', 'https://www.landscapeforms.com/en-us/lighting/projects/pages/Moonwalk.aspx', 'Landscape-Forms-Moonwalk_small.jpg', 'Landscape Forms Moonwalk', 'Moonwalk, NEW ORLEANS, LA​', 'Project Moonwalk is located in NEW ORLEANS, LA​.

(547, 'LSF005', 121, 'Partners HealthCare Corporate Campus', 'SOMERVILLE, MA', 'Partners HealthCare’s nine-acre corporate campus is unique among corporate campuses in that it is completely open to the public. The campus and its hardscape and green space amenities serve as an anchor within the 45-acre Assembly Row mixed-used development, located in Somerville, just outside of Boston.\r\n\r\nThe public/private campus is shared by 4,500 Partners HealthCare employees and visitors and residents of the Assembly Square neighborhood. The team from OJB Landscape Architecture’s Boston office created a site design with a range of formal and informal spaces that communicate their intended use places to “live, work, and play,” Design Director Simon Beer, explains. “Work-enabled spaces on an architectural grid are closer to the building,” says Beer. “As people move away from the building, the design opens up and becomes more organic, with a winding fitness trail and a 2.5 acre event lawn, which features a grass-stepped amphitheater.” The formal courtyard adjacent to the building’s ground floor offers employees and visitors public spaces to meet and work. Landscape Forms’ Parc Centre tables and chairs and Tuuci umbrellas dot the space. “People gravitate to the tables with umbrellas,” says Beer. “Shade is so important on a big site like this.” The courtyard is punctuated with Rama area lights, their placement in synchronization with the courtyard’s grove of trees, pavers, and rain garden running down the middle of the court.\r\n\r\nThe 28,000-square-foot green roof includes a 7,000-square-foot terrace for Partners HealthCare employees. Groupings of Chipman chairs and Parc Centre tables are framed by 90 birch trees in raised planters and lit by Rama area lights. “On a nice day, every single table and chair is taken,” says Beer, of the terrace connected to the building’s third-level cafeteria. “It’s great to see the rooftop jam packed, with people enjoying great views of downtown Boston.”\r\n\r\nWith a sprawling campus park, and one open to the public and evening events, lighting was important to the success of OJB’s site plan. Rama area lights were their selection. “Lighting such a large area isn’t difficult with Rama lights,” says Beer. “They offer great distribution.” Beer also liked the warm 3000k color, which enhanced the natural setting. “We strive for simplicity in our lighting, and that is what Rama offers,” says Beer. “Its clean and simple form doesn’t try to be too much of its own element within the design.” Rama also lights the fitness trail.\r\n\r\nThe amphitheater seating area includes Tuuci umbrellas, Parc Centre tables, and Chipman chairs. OJB favors movable furniture in outdoor spaces. “The Chipman chairs and Parc Centre chairs and tables have a nice weight to them,” says Beer. “In a well-monitored, public location with long, open views, chairs don’t grow legs and run away. Movable furniture is an asset to public spaces. It lets people make their own environment, from a single person to a group.” Site concerns included sea level rise, given the campus’ proximity to the Mystic River and Boston Harbor. OJB’s design offers dry creeks, rain gardens, and changes in grade and berms that move up and down and activate the stone creek moving water away from the building. Native and adaptive vegetation including 333 trees combat wind, transit noise, and sequester nearly 40,000 pounds of carbon annually. “The hardscape and vegetation are purposeful, given the natural challenges of the area,” says Beer. “But the campus is aesthetically pleasing,” says Beer, “and a model of environmental and social sustainability.”\r\n\r\nPart of the campus’ sustainability comes from its site furnishings and lighting. Rama LED low-consumption lights support Partners HealthCare sustainability goals. But Beer finds sustainability in other aspects of Landscape Forms’ products. “Landscape Forms builds products with the kind of high-quality and longevity of design that stand the test of time.” The campus, opened in 2016, has received rave reviews from Partners HealthCare and visitors alike. “The public/private campus is truly an asset to the community of Assembly Row and Partners HealthCare.”​\r\n\r\nLandscape Forms Elements: Rama Area Lights, Chipman Chairs, Parc Centre Chairs & Tables, Chase Park Litter, Ride Bike Rack, TUUCI Parasols​​\r\n\r\nDesign Partners: OJB Landscape Architecture, Gensler, Ryan Associates, HLB Lighting Design, Kyle Caldwell Photography​', 'https://www.landscapeforms.com/en-us/lighting/projects/pages/Partners-HealthCare.aspx', 'Landscape-Forms-Partners-HealthCare-Corporate-Campus_small.jpg', 'Landscape Forms Partners HealthCare Corporate Campus', 'Partners HealthCare Corporate Campus, SOMERVILLE, MA', 'Project Partners HealthCare Corporate Campus is located in SOMERVILLE, MA.

The SCULPline bathes this majestic landmark in white light to create a striking focal point while cutting energy costs by 50%. \r\n\r\nInaugurated in 1521, the cathedral is the largest Gothic church in the Benelux and the pride of Antwerp. The flamboyant tower, which at 123m high dominates the city skyline, was completed in 1518. \r\n\r\nIn 2012, the city of Antwerp launched an innovative lighting master plan for the entire city and its neighbourhoods. With this plan, the city wants to implement sustainable lighting solutions that consume little energy. \r\n\r\nIn addition to respecting the master plan requirements for the solutions’ longevity, the luminaires for the Cathedral also had to be discreet and not hamper in any way the appearance and perception of this historical public space by day. By night, they had to enhance the architectural details to show this timeless beauty in all its splendour.\r\n\r\nAt the heart of the masterplan, is the concept that urban lighting should, first and foremost, serve people by creating welcoming, safe and comfortable environments. It must create functional and appealing landscapes.\r\n\r\nThe SCULPline was chosen to take up the challenge of illuminating the Cathedral. This linear floodlight discreetly blends into the façades for a minimal visual impact. The floodlights are directly integrated onto the façade, (without any damage to historic materials), replacing the old fixtures installed at a distance from the Cathedral. \r\n\r\nThe new installation offers a more precise control of the light. Being so close to the architecture, the floodlights emphasise the architectural details, which were washed away by the yellow light of the old lighting system, like a magnifying glass. They bathe the edifice in white light, which brings out the true beauty of this masterpiece in stone.\r\n\r\nThanks to its performing LensoFlex®2 photometric engine, the SCULPline will enable the city to generate substantial energy savings. The floodlights consume 50% less energy than the old fixtures. In addition to the reduced consumption of the lighting solution, the floodlights will also significantly cut maintenance costs due to their long life span. \r\n\r\nThe new illumination scheme has given this iconic landmark a new lease of life at night, creating a striking focal point in which the community can take great pride.\r\n\r\n\r\nAddress:\r\n\r\nGroenplaats 21\r\n2000 Antwerp\r\nBelgium\r\n\r\n\r\nProducts:\r\n\r\nSCULPline\r\n\r\n\r\nApplications:\r\n\r\nMonuments and façades', 'https://www.schreder.com/zh/projects/cathedral-of-our-lady-antwerp', 'Schreder-CATHEDRAL-OF-OUR-LADY_small.jpg', 'Schreder CATHEDRAL OF OUR LADY', 'CATHEDRAL OF OUR LADY, ANTWERP, BELGIUM', 'Project CATHEDRAL OF OUR LADY is located in ANTWERP, BELGIUM.

Lit by the connected lighting, the Xiqu Centre becomes a bright pearl on the Victoria Harbour. \r\n\r\nXiqu Centre is Hong Kong’s world-class palace of art. With a structure resembling a Chinese lantern built by aluminum curved slats, it embraces the east and west cultural richness, just like Hong Kong. \r\n\r\nAll materials are arranged in a wavy pattern to reflect the concept of QI. Its aluminum Moon Gate comes in a curvy structure like an unveiling curtain or a long sleeve lifted by an opera dancer, inviting the visitor to join the joyous show. Stepping inside, there is a red-gold ceiling shining through the gate, radiantly. The atrium is undoubtedly the greatest highlight of the architecture. If Xiqu Centre was a lantern, then the atrium would be the wick; if the entrance design tells the concept of “soft glow behind a bead curtain”, then the atrium would the source of that glow. \r\n\r\nTo truly awake the Xiqu Centre at night, the atrium must be lit. The project eventually adopts the smart lighting solution by Traxon e:cue. Multiple types of LED luminaires, including the Traxon Nano Liner Allegro, Liner Quattro and Cove Light AC HO has been integrated into the structure, and connected to 6 x 512 DMX. Now standing in the atrium, you will be touched by the brightness by Traxon e:cue. The connected lighting creates an open, well-lit space where people may ramble on the circular hallways or sit and contemplate on the star white stairs. This is an otherworldly wonderland that we build for city residents. \r\n\r\nThe Hong Kong Xiqu Centre is the stage where ancient Chinese stories told, and arts performed.  Traxon e:cue connected lighting turns the centre into a glow and lets it overlook the glamorous Victoria Harbor at night. It is also a place where the ancient arts of Xiqu can be promoted and evolves with contemporary concepts and ideas. \r\n\r\n\r\nGeneral Contractor: Hsin Chong\r\nSystem Integrator: Prosperity Group\r\n\r\nCategory: Architectural	 	\r\nLighting Designer: Horton Lees Brogden (US)\r\nClient: West Kowloon Cultural District	 	\r\nArchitect: -\r\nLocation: Hong Kong, China	 	\r\nDesigner: -\r\nDate: 2019-02-18	 	\r\nInstaller: Chi Luen\r\n\r\nProducts :\r\n \r\nCove Light AC HO RGBW\r\n \r\nLiner Quattro AC XB RGBW\r\n \r\nNano Liner Allegro AC XB', 'http://www.traxontechnologies.com/showcase/showcase_details/14367', 'Traxon-Technologies-Xiqu-Centre_small.jpg', 'Traxon Technologies Xiqu Centre', 'Xiqu Centre, Hong Kong, China', 'Project Xiqu Centre is located in Hong Kong, China.

(580, 'RGN008', 95, 'DAVIDSON HOUSE', 'Reading, UK', 'The newly-revamped Davidson House is situated in the centre of Reading, close to The Oracle shopping centre and the mainline train station. The 10,940 sq. ft. space has undergone a complete uplift with the introduction of a totally refurbished, well-lit public walkway area through the building which leads seamlessly into the warm and welcoming new reception area.\r\n\r\nThe refurbishment was designed to provide the owners with a more distinctive and inviting entrance that re-identifies Davidson House as a contemporary, forward-looking office space.\r\n\r\nWorking with dn-a architecture, leading lighting design firm Light Bureau were given responsibility for the lighting throughout the exterior and ground floor spaces and specified our Yori fittings for the reception area, with a view to providing a lighting solution that was consistent in intensity and colour and which would enhance the natural wood design and help bring the exterior and interior spaces together.\r\n\r\nThe external public walkway now incorporates a warm palette of natural materials including a timber fin design ceiling structure which links the north and south entrances as well as seamlessly connecting to the central interior space. Our dimmable, track-mounted 22W LED large Yori Evo Box fittings with a 30-degree beam angle and complete with a recessed honeycomb accessory were installed between the internal timber fins to create a soft, welcoming and relaxing atmosphere to the waiting lounge and also to support visual continuity with the adjacent passageway. With the reception area also containing large floor-to-ceiling windows to the front of the building, the soft level of lighting complements and provides a perception of depth to the building façade when viewed from the outside.\r\n\r\nIn contrast, the front desk located at the very heart of the building was expected to be a functional and fast-moving space that required a higher level of illumination and uniformity. For this, Light Bureau chose our dimmable, large Yori Evo Box fittings in black, but this time with a 52-degree beam angle on two rows of track suspended from the concrete ceiling to illuminate key vertical surfaces, support wayfinding and to entice visitors further into the interior space.\r\n\r\nOur elegant suspended Yori Linear fitting in black was also installed to provide a good, uniform light immediately above the building reception desk. In complementing the natural materials used in the reception area our stylish fittings have once again helped create a well-lit, warm, welcoming and comfortable visual environment for staff and visitors alike.\r\n\r\n\r\nProject Davidson House\r\nYear of completion: 2019\r\nPlace: Reading, UK\r\nLighting designer: Light Bureau Ltd\r\nPhotography: Andy Stagg\r\n\r\nPhoto credits: http://mydn-a.com/davidson-house-refresh-complete/', 'http://www.reggiani.net/en/progetti/davidson-house/?lang=en', 'Reggiani-DAVIDSON-HOUSE_small.jpg', 'Reggiani DAVIDSON HOUSE', 'DAVIDSON HOUSE, Reading, UK', 'Project DAVIDSON HOUSE is located in Reading, UK.

(583, 'WEF008', 68, 'Roma Street Parklands', 'Brisbane, Australia', 'With a year-round calendar of events and many daily visitors, Roma Street Parkland, Brisbane, has continued to evolve since its opening in 2001 enabling it to remain one of the truly significant urban parks in Australia. Operators of the parkland wanted to ensure it would sustain an efficient user experience well into the future. In order to achieve this, City Parklands Services, which is part of Brisbane City Council, decided to upgrade the lighting throughout the popular park reached by just a 10-minute walk from the city centre.\r\n\r\nWith designer gardens and sprawling lawns that wind around 16 hectares of stunning parkland, the area is host to a range of lighting equipment and effects, including several hundred post top luminaires used for essential pathway lighting. When City Parkland Services was considering the replacement of the luminaires, they contacted the Queensland WE-EF sales partner, Raylinc Lighting in Brisbane. \r\n\r\n“The brief was to replace indirect existing post tops through Roma Street. We proposed RFL530 street and area luminaires with a custom pole-top bracket to work with the existing poles,” said Mark Hoppe from Raylinc. The incumbent luminaires at Roma Street used a 150 W metal halide lamp with a life of around 8,000 hours. “Replacing these with the RFL530 meant using just a 55 W head replacement with a 60,000 hours life,” said Hoppe.\r\n\r\nWE-EF produced a mock-up of the luminaire and used a local pole company to customise a bracket that fitted the top section spigot of the existing poles. “By using the [S70] side-throw distribution optic, the set spacing was achieved without installing additional poles,” noted Hoppe. “Each RFL was supplied with a six-metre pre-wired tail of cable that could be dropped down into the pole – this saved installation time.”\r\n\r\nThere were several reasons why the client decided to use WE-EF products, including visual comfort, sustainability, warranty, after-sales support and performance. “The security guards love the new lighting because it doesn\'t pixelate the image on CCTV, as opposed to indirect light. They loved the clarity of the image,” Hoppe explained. Using the [S70] side-throw beam optic also allowed greater control of the light and ensured glare control and less disturbance of fauna in the parkland. “The other interesting point with LED is its instant restrike, whereas with metal halide there is a time delay,” Hoppe said. One of the biggest drivers of the project, however, was energy efficiency, which was reduced by one-third while still utilising a luminaire with a long life plus the provision of a 10-year warranty. “All together, we have supplied around 250 luminaires for this project,” Hoppe added.\r\n\r\nRaylinc has also been working with Roma Street Parkland to upgrade existing WE-EF luminaires to new LED versions. These include: CFT540 for framing the amphitheatre; ETC330 for tree lighting; FLB440 for façade lighting; and PFL240 for roadway lighting.  The new CFT540 luminaires replaced the previous indirect post tops in the amphitheatre. These luminaires consume 36 W and are fitted with a DALI control system allowing dimming of the lighting when the stage is used. The warmer 3000 K colour temperature of the CFTs creates a clear visual separation from other park areas and a welcoming atmosphere for amphitheatre visitors. “There is a continuous thinking about making this space more appealing through the use of LED technology,” Hoppe explained, adding that the technical support offered to City Parkland Services has created a close working relationship.\r\n\r\nPhotography: Jackie Chan', 'https://www.weef.de/#!/int/project/roma-st-parklands', 'We-ef-Lighting-Roma-Street-Parklands_small.jpg', 'We-ef Lighting Roma Street Parklands', 'Roma Street Parklands,  Brisbane, Australia', 'Project Roma Street Parklands is located in Brisbane, Australia.

(586, 'WEF009', 68, 'Sutton Bonington Campus', 'Nottingham, UK', 'The origins of the University of Nottingham\'s Sutton Bonington campus go back to an agricultural school founded around 1900, and the campus is proud of these roots. Up until the present day, around 10 miles from University Park – the University of Nottingham\'s central site – greenhouses, enclosures and an extensive arboretum can still be found. What sounds like a village idyll is actually a state-of-the-art research and teaching site with all the associated infrastructure – from laboratories to lecture halls, libraries and student halls of residence.\r\n\r\nThe continuous growth of the campus is controlled by a master plan. This defines the sites for new buildings, for example the new Gateway Building or the Research Centre for Bioenergy and Brewing Science. While long-term renovation requirements are analysed in the master plan together with implementation proposals, it also contains specifications for the optimisation and coordination of roads, paths, car parks and outdoor facilities. The aim is to create a functional and attractive environment for students, employees and visitors as well as helping to give the campus a strong identity.\r\n\r\nThe range of materials, shapes and colours specified in the master plan, as part of the general design guidelines, was also taken into account in planning new exterior lighting for various areas of the campus. With their functional design language that focuses on basic geometric shapes, high-quality materials and sophisticated lighting technology, the luminaires from WE-EF meet these requirements perfectly. At the same time, they harmonise with the different architectural styles. For example, LTM440 LED-FT light columns illuminate the paths and areas close to the new amenities building, \"The Barn\", which includes a large restaurant as well as event areas and quiet spaces. \r\n\r\nThanks to their unpretentious design, the light columns blend very well with the surrounding architecture, both in the daytime and at night. WE-EF CTY150 LED-FT bollards add to the atmospheric lighting of outdoor areas. Like the LTMs, they are fitted with CAD-optimised indirect optics for superior illumination and glare control. In the music pavilion, RFS530 LED luminaires provide uniform area lighting, while FLC121 LED projectors are used for accent lighting.\r\n\r\nLandscape Architect: Munro & Whitten\r\nPhotographs: James Newton Photography', 'https://www.weef.de/#!/int/project/sutton-bonington-uk', 'We-ef-Lighting-Sutton-Bonington-Campus_small.jpg', 'We-ef Lighting Sutton Bonington Campus', 'Sutton Bonington Campus, Nottingham, UK', 'Project Sutton Bonington Campus is located in Nottingham, UK.
