artificial lighting

Light articulates space, form, and materials, and directly influences our perception.

 

Lighting as a technical product in fact has a significant aesthetic impact. The architectural message thus determines our planning.

What function shall it fulfill?  Wherein lies the design intention?

 

In close cooperation with architect and client, we create a distinctive lighting design to support conceptual ideas and guarantee optimal usability. We then further develop the technical and design solutions based on this concept.

 

Our role in the project is to link technology and aesthetics with competent contributions, but also through an effective communication between professionals.

daylighting

Considering the effect of daylight plays a decisive role in the design of every project.The dynamic path of sunlight in a day and throughout the course of a year has its distinctive appeal, but also carries with it specific challenges.

 

Using calculations, simulations and techniques in daylight composition, we assist in creating the desired atmosphere and help optimise spatial functions.

 

Precisely defining a path of daylight, we are able to determine the size and location of openings for natural light in a building. We calculate the required properties of glass for facades and develop controlled mirror elements and sun screening systems.

 

Spaces must not be visually dominated by technical systems.

Often a simple solution is the best.

development of lighting elements

The focus of our concept lies in the effect of light, and not in the lighting element itself.  We are constantly searching for new ways to integrate lighting systems harmoniously in the architecture.

 

Should the lighting market not deliver appropriate products, we develop custom solutions.Working with lighting manufacturers, we integrate serial systems, optimise reflectors or create entirely individual products.

 

Our competence in the field of architecture, industrial design, and lighting techniques likewise fulfills creative, innovative and technical demands.

open spaces and urban lighting

The identity, appeal and safety of a city at night are defined to a great degree by the quality of its illumination.

 

Our comprehensive work encompasses functional lighting systems to compelling lighting scenarios for facades, urban spaces or parks. On a larger scale, our ideas support vibrant environments or help structure an heterogeneous urban framework.

 

Our master plans embody contemporary influences in architecture, urban planning and technology, and define a sustainable plan for efficient but individual urban lighting.

computer calculations and simulations

With the aid of specialized software, luna.lichtarchitektur generates 3-dimensional computer models used to represent lighting designs.

 

Lighting levels, simulation and mood are then visualised realistically as images or a video sequence.

 

We calculate the applicable lighting levels and norms and complete the required documents for planning approvals or certificates.

lighting installations

Recent developments in lighting control technology have allowed for a combination of classical lighting design with dynamic lighting installations.

Continually cooperating with experts in the fields of multimedia and control technology, we offer a confident and creative use of the newest technologies.

Evidence to innovative lighting installations in architecture and urban spaces are our awards from the Innovations Preis Architektur und Technik, the Renault Traffic Award and the Licht-Architektur Award.
