Humboldt Forum

Lichtvision was responsible for the daylight and artificial lighting design of Humboldt Forum in Berlin, Germany, completed in 2021 with Franco Stella Projektgemeinschaft.

The Humboldt Forum in Berlin is regarded as one of Germany’s most significant cultural construction projects. With the collection of the “Staatliche Museen zu Berlin” (SMB) moving from Berlin-Dahlem, the main part of the building functions as a museum. The lighting design for museums, particularly the daylight illumination in this historical context, has been adapted to meet today’s strict conservation requirements and structural demands. This involved extensive studies on glazing, solar arrangements, and glare protection systems. The art is primarily staged through lighting emitters that ensure minimal energy entry, aligning with modern conservation standards.
