The Event & Conference Centre is situated at the at the Guangyang Island which is a land bridge island. Dominated by subtropical evergreen broad-leaved forests in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River. The main objective is to maintain a sustainable lighting concept to reduce light pollution to a minimum, providing visitors an unobstructed and pure environment and night sky.

The lighting concept features low glare light fixtures and glare controlled mounting details. Through the hierarchical design of the lighting, the visitors can feel the mutual radiance and tolerance of the building and the hills, as well as the “sequence of flowing water” form of the building. The lighting moved upward from a low level, leading the guest to raise their sights slowly, and continue to higher level as they stepped forward.

The Tiffany House is a mixed-use development made up of residential units and retail at podium level. The architecture of the façade is inspired by jewellery boxes where the opening drawers invoke a certain curiosity to have a look inside. The lighting element at the façade acts as a frame and just like with a gift, wraps around the façade like a ribbon.
The interior lighting further complements the interior space by the fixture type having been chosen according to the use of the space. Lichtvision’s scope of work features all interior public areas including residential club house, luxury amenities and retail as well as lush, landscaped terraces on top of the retail podium.

Berlin, Germany
Daylight & Artificial Lighting

Architect: Franco Stella Projektgemeinschaft
Completion year: 2021

The Humboldt Forum in Berlin is regarded as Germany’s most significant cultural construction project in the coming decades. With the collection of the “Staatliche Museen zu Berlin” (SMB) moving from Berlin-Dahlem, the building’s main part will function 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.

Client: Covestro
Architect: HENN
Interior Designer: Kinzo
Completion year: 2021

The Covestro headquarters form the core of the new corporate campus. The open floor plan enables flexible collaborative work. For this purpose, Kinzo designed colourful and inviting spaces. Lounge areas surround the work areas for over 700 employees. The central air space with a big skylight is the architectural focal point.
The surrounding light lines accentuate the geometric shape of the air space. Downlights illuminate the circulation areas and combine the colourful theme worlds of Kinzo with their own decorative lighting solutions. The entire lighting design was created as a BIM process with visualization and collision checking, quantity and cost determination and the creation of plan sets.
