One Angel Square alight with latest technologies


A


pproximately 8,000 of Luxonic’s luminaires used throughout the headquarters are bespoke,


designed specifically for One Angel Square to integrate with the chilled beam system in both the office and meeting spaces. The unobtrusive nature of the linear luminaires gives these working spaces a contemporary and stylish feel, in keeping with the Co-op’s status as a forward-thinking company. The Luxonic Flat-Lens FPO luminaires use a micro-prismatic lens to control light in the offices whilst maintaining high levels of efficiency. The slim beams include a directional uplight component that emphasises the clean lines of the coffered ceiling and also reduces the amount of light spill behind the chilled beam.


Luxonic LED downlighters are mounted within bespoke rafts throughout the reception area and the café. With an expected life span of 50,000 hours the Luxonic V-LED®


100 are powerful fixed


recessed luminaires supplied with DALI dimmable control gear. This enables the lighting to be controlled according to daylight and occupancy levels, furthering its energy efficiency.


Building & Facilities Management – September 2013


Luxonic Lighting has provided over 11,000 luminaires throughout the office and communal areas in the Co-op’s new headquarters at One Angel Square, Manchester.


200s light the ancillary areas at One Angel Square. These have been designed with the visual aesthetic of the luminaire in mind, as well as glare control and the shape of the intensity distribution. A specialist light engine from Luxonic manages the brightness of the LED while a satin diamond faceted reflector is an option to further control the luminaire luminance. This management of luminance quality results in a more visually comfortable environment for the users of the headquarters.


V-LED® Invited to work on the project by Rotary


North West and BAM construction due to previous success on high-end projects, Luxonic worked closely with designers Burro Happold and architect 3D Reid throughout the detailed design stage and continued to project completion. The Luxonic luminaires offered the highest levels of efficiency on the market, and confirmed the company’s specification for


the provision of the lighting.
