TIFFANY HOUSE

Macau, China
Artificial Lighting for Façade, Interiors, Landscape, Lighting Controls Sustainability

Architect: Arquitectonica, LWKP
Additional Planning Partners: ALN Landscape
Pictures: 戚朔迁 Qi Shuoqian

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.

COSTA SMERALDA

Artificial Lighting

Architect: Tihany Design, Jeffrey Beers International, Rockwell Group, Dordoni Architetti, Partner Ship Design
Completion year: 2020
Images: Costa

Costa Smeralda is the biggest vessel within the Costa Crociere fleet. Designed by four different interior designers, under the guidance of a Tihany Design masterplan, the ship offers an incredible variety of areas between restaurants, shops and entertainment.

General lighting has been used to bind the various venues together, creating nice transitions from one area to the next. Custom decorative fittings and highlights for architectural features have been introduced to bring out the essence of each area for a greater customer experience. Dim to warm and tuneable white technologies have been widely used to allow for change of atmosphere throughout the day and the night. This brings a strong connection between the inside and the outside, with bright and energetic scenes at daytime and a moodier candlelight effect at nighttime.
