Lighting in Design Q2 2022

to find a solution to irradicate the glare.” 15 Eos single wall mount luminaires accentuate the structure while providing light down the ramp to the 2000-car super sub-basement. In the basement, RLS’s Nimbus vapour proof luminaires with integrated microwave sensors are used. Unlike most basements that are dark and intimidating, the super-basement is spread out over nine hectares, boasting green lungs, ventila tion, and lots of natural light thanks to its high roof with architectural cut-outs. The facility has been built around 18 lift cores, with ring road access, and all bearing a unique design element (such as mosaic, timber, granite, and marble) to ensure that residents find it easy to navigate their way through the basement to their apartments. The super sub-basement will also feature designated Uber drop-offs at all 18 cores, golf cart parking and electric car charging stations. The piazza courtyards are elegantly illuminat ed by 15 Sliver double luminaires – mounted at 1500 mm in the courtyards and 900 mm elsewhere – and 225 surface-mounted Pathway fittings. Else where, the Linear Mini, in 4000 K, guides residents from one courtyard to another. Furthermore, the Linear 17 x 15, concealed within the staircase railings, gently illuminates the stairs. All exterior lighting was supplied in 3000 K, providing warmth and comfort, enhancing the spaces and providing a sense of comfort and ease. The construction team is currently on site working on Phase 2 of the project, and Feher is looking forward to providing more solutions for the architects. “Getting a project of this size out while in the middle of a pandemic was a challenge; however, it was well specced, well put together, and it has come out beautifully.”
