Martin Tripix LED linear luminaire helps shape new look for Germany’s Ruhr district
Lake Baldeney is the location for ‘Ruhr Atoll’ – an installation that serves as a platform for art and culture in public spaces across the Ruhr. It truly lives up to the ‘Art & Energy’ slogan, since energy plays a key role in the creation and utilisation, as well as in the artistic design, of the Atoll. The presentation of a weir that has been completely rebuilt is integrated seamlessly into this concept, with the facades of its bridges appearing as an explosion of colour across the lake – testimony to the region’s centuries of construction work and archi- tecture.
The idea for a visual display of an arc of light spanning the lake took shape two years ago, with the start of the revitalisation phase. Project manager Ulrich Rudzinski as idea facilitator worked with lighting designer Marco König from König electric light in Arnsberg and Christian Mentrup from NextMove in Münster, all of whom acted as consultants and became involved in the technical design. Additional close coopera- tion with Martin Professional made it pos- sible to plan a variety of installations ahead of schedule, which were based on LED RGB lighting. In this context, Rudzinski had a clear vision of an environmentally-friendly art installation that was capable of using a
JAVA SPIRIT Electron illuminates a private fitness club in Athens
The lighting design for the Java fitness club in Athens involved the creation of a colourful and impressive façade that would attract attention from a distance and make people curious to enter the building. In ad- dition, the goal was to generate a dynamic façade that would enhance the ornamen- tal architecture of the building, which is composed of drawings on the main external walls of the building, as well as of addi- tional white-painted walls in organic shapes that protrude from the building. In order to achieve these goals, Electron LEDs from the company’s LEDELEC range were used as well as power supplies and control systems. LEDELEC LED Wall Washers are positioned to highlight the ‘organic’ walls and enhance the three-dimensional construction. The op- eration of the RGB LED Washers is achieved through Electron power supplies. The power supplies have DMX-512 input and output,
three channels + master, auto operation of ten preset programs with adjustable speed rate, fade time and master dimmer output control, manual control, as well as master/ slave operation.
Electron Chameleon controllers are also used to control the brightness, intensity and colour changing. The external ‘organic’ walls seem to be ‘floating’ in colours, en- hancing a three-dimensional sensation that creates a spectacle.

UV- and IR-free lighting system. The lighting effect has been achieved solely by using indirect and antiglare LED RGB lights, the first pan-European outdoor in- stallation with Tripix by Martin Professional. A total of 68 x IP66 linear luminaires along a total length of 156m stage the main girders of the footbridge. The Tripix system consists of modular units based on single-lens tricolour RGB mixing, that mixes the colours inside the lenses. A colour wash system ensures an even distribution of colour on all surfaces, thus avoiding unattractive colour seams or colour shadows. The Tripix lights are controlled via DMX and provide intuitive RGB colour control as well as HSIC colour control for easy adjustment of colour temperature. Lighting sequences and timing are controlled using a Butler XT from e:cue. As well as its calendar function, the electric control box for the master dis- play with its external user terminal provides staff at the weir with an option to make a selection from the various moods, which can be called up separately for specific events.
