The approach was design-driven – far and
beyond simple photometrics. Mock-ups allowed
lighting fixtures to be positioned to achieve the
best lighting direction, ensuring that the different
elements of the building were properly featured.
They were also critical in identifying colour tem-
peratures to achieve desired effects. In addition,
the designers elected to work with grazers and
carefully positioned the lighting fixtures in relation
to the stone façade.
The finishing touch
Lightemotion established seamless integration
of the lighting fixtures on the façade by creating
light caches; fixtures are not visible and no glare
effects are present to the public from any angle of
the building.
