Energy-efficient LED lighting

With a large office space, it is important to pay close attention to acoustics. Thanks to the Clip-in tiles, the reverberation decreased enormously in the room. Philip Braem The large room was finished with playful Slimline 30 and Bull lighting. Philip Braem Philip Braem In the meeting rooms and refectory, a black ceiling with built-in Bull LED lighting was chosen. Philip Braem More

Due to the large size of the room and the concrete walls & ceilings, any noise was reflected back into this office. Which resulted in an abundance of noise as well as headaches.... Thanks to Clip-in tiles and PET-staves, this problem was solved. These ensure that a very large proportion of the noise is absorbed. The acoustic system ceiling thus contributed to the staff's well-being. Philip Braem Besides acoustics, the aesthetic value of the room was also taken into account. It was decided to use black PET-Staves and Clip-in tiles. By combining several ceiling systems, the office came to life! The space was finished with 48V tracks (between PET-Staves), Frost DS and Bull LED lighting (in Clip-in tiles). Philip Braem More

This office space was divided into several 'glass' offices. To give it a cohesive feel, the white Clip-in ceiling was extended across the entire space. Slimline 30 lighting gave the space a streamlined and clean feel. With enough light for the employees, of course! Above some cabinets, Tube Swing luminaires were provided for extra accent. Philip Braem In the walkway, a small bar/kitchen was provided by the client. This bar is accented by four Bull dot lighting fixtures. The Bull dot is a small, subtle but powerful luminaire. Perfect as an accent in the room. Philip Braem More

In addition to offices and workspaces, a large office building also needs some recreational/multifunctional spaces. These can be used as refectories, event spaces, display areas, etc. Philip Braem To keep this client's multifuncional spaces as flexible as possible, Skivn (S, M and L) was used in one space and Linear (1 and 2) in the other. These lighting fixtures are perfect for all possible uses of the space. Philip Braem Both spaces were fitted with a bar/kitchen by the client. To accentuate these and give them a luxurious look, we chose to work with the Stoal PET baffles. The PET baffles were placed side by side with large gaps between them to maintain the open feel of the space. Philip Braem More

Even from beyond the doors, the soft glow of the lighting feature at Watt Plaza Lobby simply cannot be missed. The new lobby design by STUDIOS Architecture called for a massive decorative light display and Canadian lighting studio, Archilume, got the call. The result is a striking constellation of 350 (yes, 350!) individually mounted P1M LED luminaires.  The P1M is Archilume’s marquee pendant. It set the stage for what is now the brand’s design ethos - innovating by combining science with beauty. Since its founding in 2013, Archilume has been producing glare-free decorative luminaires that revolutionize the use of innovative lighting technologies – one of the first to use energy-efficient LED chip-on-board technology...

The building is located partly at the old Convent of Madre Deus of Monchique, and the old industrial warehouses that have their first reference of settlement since the XVI century. The whole building is a couple steps away from Alfandega, in Oporto historic centre, classified as UNESCO World Heritage since 1996. Sustainability and innovation were some of the main features of this project, pushing this project’s development to always take into account the principles of a sustainable architecture. Fernando Guerra / FG+SG Therefore, a reutilization of existing materials such as wood, stone and metal and their re-adaptation to a new purpose, was a constant feature throughout the whole process. “ We recovered roof tiles from th...
