The facade in its progression, materials, lighting and detail was designed by us. It is the unique feature of the ZEBRA located on Frankfurt's Europaallee. The lighting for the work areas reflects the work environments developed by Deloitte and illuminates the different areas with spotlights and decorative luminaires to give expression to the utmost individualization of each area.

The German Football Association (DFB) is Germany's largest athletic association. But it did not have a national training center. Which makes the DFB Academy a highly unique project–a new kind of space meant to bring together people of all ages and athletic abilities.
The architects use a large boulevard to connect the large complex of offices, playing fields, restaurants, fitness and hotel rooms.
The concept for the lighting design is based on the idea of an outside boulevard. The colors for the ceiling areas were chosen by us to be in two different blue tones without any lighting fixtures mounted in this "sky," the illumination of which is of central importance to create the illusion of light from above all the way down into the darkest areas.
The lighting on the city boulevard below it is animated and varied making the 230-meter-long route a diverting and entertaining one.
We designed a six-meter-high tree made of lights to serve as the central feature on the market square. It is constructed out of high jumping poles and consciously symbolizes a niche sport in the DFB.

Kanso - a house between a hotel and a private apartment. The lighting design finds the balance between the function, individuality and durability.
The facade is given a striking appearance by the backlit frames. This detail could be brought into the project by us.

The DFB Academy's market square serves as its central entrance and main hub. A lighted sculpture was designed to have a far-reaching effect and enhance the atmosphere and identity of this square. The motif behind the concept of the custom-made luminaire was the image of bulrushes swaying in the wind. The lighted tree is made of eight, pre-bent steel tubes coated with flexible, colored GRP sticks, each of which has a luminous object mounted on it. The interplay and inclinations were parametrically modelled by our development team using grasshopper (see image).

Hall 12 is a new building and the Frankfurt Fair's most modern exhibition hall. It is surrounded by restaurants and a corridor connecting all of the halls. The lighting combines the different atmospheres that need to make an impact, even during the day.

High-quality vehicle presentation with a representative external effect -both has been achieved at the Mercedes Benz Showroom in Frankfurt through delineated light zones as a presentation area for new vehicles and by projection of colours and light movements on the inner sides of textile cones.
 

The changing golden light ceiling element was developed by Kardorff Ingenieure uniquely for this project. The lights shine between two metal lattice planes to ensure a special depth effect like a Moirée. A mirror installed on the back side of the lobby additionally stretches the perspective of the hall.

The Trianon is one of the highest skyscrapers in Frankfurt. Kardorff Ingenieure’s design for the ceiling and lighting shapes the new image of the building from the street facade through the lobby all the way to the elevators.

In the course of renovating a Frankfurt law office dating from the 1960’s, an 80 m long colonnade was built and illuminated. 
The colonnade is given rhythm through the alternation of supporting elements and openings. The goal of the lighting design was to emphasize this rhythm in its spatial structure.

The shopping center My Zeil captivates through its funnel-shaped, structured glass facade facing the Zeil that lets in lots of daylight into the interior. As a result, a light and airy atmosphere exists on all of the building’s eight levels.

The five-star hotel Frankfurter Hof is one of the best addresses in Frankfurt am Main. Across from the Commerzbank, Germany’s tallest skyscraper, the hotel’s impressive location on Kaiserplatz is extraordinary.

A shadow study was performed at the request of the Allianz Immobilien GmbH regarding the construction project at Taunausanlage 20 in Frankfurt am Main. We examined the influence of different building heights in terms of shading the nearby Opernplatz. For the shadow study, a three-dimensional urban model was created, and qualitative and quantitative evaluations were generated using our own software.

Material studies were performed for the foyer and the special areas of Tower 1. The planned use of high-grade steel wall and ceiling liners was assessed in terms of light actinism. The images show in reflections of the luminaires how the direction of rolling and the surface pattern influence the light reflection.

The project was not realized.

In 2002 on the Theodor-Stern-Kai am Main, with a direct view of the Frankfurt skyline, the new office and service center for nine Allianz insurance companies with approximately 2,500 employees was constructed. Kardorff Ingenieure designed the lighting for all of the special areas and the illumination of the facade.
