TECHNOLOGY / LIGHTFAIR INTERNATIONAL, PHILADELPHIA, USA


EXCELLENCE AWARD PROJECT: SPERONE WESTWATER GALLERY, NEW YORK, USA LIGHTING DESIGN: BURO HAPPOLD The Sperone Westwater Gallery design is a response to the Bowery’s raw, urban dynamic. Central to its bold street appearance is a Ferrari-red moving room, partially obscured through the milled glass façade. The room carries visitors between gallery floors, with its gentle movement a stark contrast to the fast-moving traffic outside the gallery.


Bringing the gallery to life at night required an analytical study of the milled glazing, a dynamically responsive dimming system to address the moving room’s transience in the lower façade and a flexible lighting strategy for the upper façade that harmonises the building’s overall appearance.


“An animated street treatment and project identity that comes to life at night, this façade is absolutely stun- ning,” stated one IALD judge. “The fact that the intensity of light changes on the top and bottom of the red box as it moves shows the level of detail the design team was concerned with.”


MERIT AWARD


PROJECT: ART COLLECTOR’S LOFT, NEW YORK, USA LIGHTING DESIGN: RENFRO DESIGN GROUP


Designing the lighting for the loft of an avid art collector necessitated a lighting strategy that was both comfortable for a permanent residence and responsive to the presentation of art. The sweeping curvilinear aspect of the architecture, combined with the owner’s request to never see a light fixture, provided a challenging task for discreetly embedding the lighting into the architecture.


One judge praised the project as “a fluid and seamless lighting design that completely supports the architectural concept for the space.”


MERIT AWARD PROJECT: EAST HARLEM SCHOOL, NEW YORK, USA LIGHTING DESIGN: LUX POPULI


East Harlem School operates on limited budget and maximises value derived from every element of the program, including lighting. The visually permeable façade moderates day- lighting to the building’s interior and at night it expresses the interior life to the street. “The excitement of this project is in how well the design team composed the overall lighting story, and how efficiently they spent their resources,” commented one judge on the project. “The quality of the lighted environment is playful, and shows an inspired and well executed design.”


MERIT AWARD


PROJECT: EXPO AXIS AT THE WORLD EXPO SHANGHAI, CHINA LIGHTING DESIGN: SHANGHAI GRANDAR LIGHT ART & TECHNOLOGY


The Expo Axis features the world’s largest membrane roof, with a surface of 65,000 sqm. The biggest challenge of this project was combining general and architectural lighting for the 900 metre long membrane roof and the six ‘Sun-Valleys’. “Although we can see this kind of design all around, this specific example shows high quality, intensive care and a creative technological concept of flexibility and beauty,” stated one judge. “All of us at the jury table were highly impressed by the standards and quality of this project.”
