• Bucerius Artforum

      Project

      Next to Hamburg's City Hall is a special kind of art museum: The Bucerius Kunst Forum does not have its own collection. It hosts temporary exhibits of loaned artworks and thus requires completely flexible lighting. The museum was advised for many years by Harry Mayer on all aspects involving light. He wished that the special spotlights be retained in the new rooms. So we integrated spots into recessed light channels alongside the luminous ceiling panels. We designed the light channels to have full access to the spotlights so that they can be optimally adjusted. A specially designed extruded aluminum sheath integrates the mounting positions for the luminous ceiling panels making it possible to achieve very fine and precise details. A 3-D spatial analysis has found that it is possible to perfectly illuminate every artform and arrangement.

    • Art Invest Headquarters

      Project

      With the modernization of the office building at Enggasse 3 in Cologne, Art Invest Real Estate has put to use new technical solutions for office space lighting in its own headquarters.
      The functional lighting is designed to align with the circadian rhythm. The lighting control system adjusts the color temperature and illumination intensity to match the progression of the day. The program can be overridden by the user to adjust the light in a given room. The glare-free and homogeneous direct light, the authentic appearance of the indirect components and the mixing of the two color temperatures were determined specifically for this project in cooperation with the manufacturer, thus jointly advancing the product's development
