Fifty - directional spotlight

Fifty is the versatile spotlight within the Sense System. With its compact 50 mm diameter, it offers a balanced combination of visual restraint, flexibility and high-quality light.

Different mounting options allow the luminaire to be used across Ceiling48, Pend48 and In48 track systems, providing a consistent lighting language throughout a project while responding to different architectural conditions. At the heart of the luminaire is a high-quali... More

Ninety-Five - directional spotlight

Good lighting rarely calls attention to itself. Instead, it reveals architecture, materials, artworks and objects exactly as they are intended to be seen. Ninety-Five was developed for precisely this task. As part of the Buschfeld Sense System, it combines high-quality light with a high degree of flexibility, allowing the same luminaire family to be used across residential projects, museums, galleries, retail spaces and public interiors. The luminaire integrates seamlessly into wall, ceiling and floor systems, creating a consistent lighting language throughout a project. Different adapter configurations allow Ninety-Five to move between applications while remaining part of the same overall system. At the heart of Ninety-Five is a focus o... More

Bespoke Solutions

Not every project starts with a standard product. For more than three decades, Buschfeld has developed lighting infrastructure for architecture, museums, heritage buildings and custom interiors. Alongside the standard portfolio, many projects require adaptations that respond directly to a space, an object or a specific design idea. These projects often begin with a conversation. A client arrives with an idea, a challenge or a vision for a space. Rather than searching for a predefined product, we work together to develop the right solution. Sometimes this means a small adaptation. Sometimes it leads to a new component, geometry or luminaire created specifically for the project. The result may be a custom finish, a modified luminaire, a cu... More

Khamovniki 12

The residential complex is a contemporary clubhouse in the neoclassical style. Architect Evgeny Gerasimov was inspired by the legacy of Andrea Palladio, one of the most influential Renaissance artists. The façade is made of natural Jurassic stone, the window frames and doors are solid wood, and the entrance area is crafted from a range of eco-friendly materials: three types of marble, veneer, maple, sycamore, gypsum, travertine, gold leaf, and brass. The penthouses offer breathtaking views of the Ukraina Hotel, the historic buildings of Khamovniki, Novodevichy Square, and other architectural landmarks. The residential complex is located in the center of historic Moscow, on one of the quietest and greenest side streets in the area.... More

RC CVET 32

The CVET32 house was created for young and contemporary people who value simplicity around them. The eight-story clubhouse is built in a modern minimalist style and is hidden on the second line of development on Tsvetnoy Boulevard. The house fits into the contradictory and various contexts of the surrounding buildings due to its simple facade, devoid of decorative elements. Only the rounded slopes of the windows give it more complex plasticity. ts laconic and elegant appearance does not detract from the charm of the historical paintings of Tsvetnoy and the neighboring Neglinka - one of the most atmospheric streets of old Moscow.

Sensory House | Mexico

Located in Mexico, Sensory House is conceived as an immersive space dedicated to sensory experience, well-being, and introspection. The project is defined by a sequence of carefully curated environments, each designed to evoke a specific emotional and spatial condition. Materiality, light, and proportion are used as primary tools to shape perception and guide the user through a gradual transition between states. The decompression lounge introduces a circular spatial gesture, where soft lighting, natural textures, and controlled geometry create a sense of calm and disconnection from the exterior environment. Seraro by Ramical The reception area establishes the first point of contact, combining warmth and clarity through a refined pal... More

Berlin Hair Transplant Clinic

Hair transplantation is a technical procedure, but for many patients it marks a personal turning point; this Berlin clinic was conceived as a controlled architectural environment where precision feels calm and identity can be restored without spectacle. The project occupies an existing urban shell and houses a specialized hair transplantation practice. The client’s brief required a space that communicates medical rigor and hygiene while reducing anxiety for patients who remain conscious, observant, and emotionally invested throughout the procedure. Unlike emergency healthcare facilities, aesthetic clinics operate in a psychological landscape shaped by vulnerability, discretion, and self-image. The challenge was to avoid the visual ha... More

Essentia

In the pedestrian heart of Padua, Essentia redefines the concept of a showroom through an intervention that works on spatial continuity and the expressive power of surfaces. The project moves beyond simple commercial display to create a unified organism, where cement resin, stone, and wood become architectural matter that guides the visitor from the public dimension of the ground floor toward the immersive and intimate dimension of the basement. The entrance welcomes the client into a space that becomes an urban scenography. The reception stands out as a monolithic volume in travertine: a tectonic presence that organizes flows and acts as the first material manifesto, directing the gaze toward the hall. Here, the environment is rhythmicall... More

Audio Center Showroom - Poland

Audio Center Show Room is an interior project combining a primary circulation space with a dedicated listening area, designed as an architectural framework for sound presentation and spatial experience. The project explores the relationship between movement, materiality, and acoustics, treating sound as an integral component of the architectural concept. EKLEKT ATELIER The circulation zone is defined by a sculptural, openwork staircase carved into a rocky, monolithic interior. The stairs lead through a vertically articulated space where material mass and light establish a slow, deliberate sequence of movement. At the center of the stair void, a shallow plane of water is introduced as an active architectural element. Suspended above t... More

Adong BB

Adong is a Japanese-inspired dining space in Bielsko-Biała, designed as a serene architectural composition rather than a themed interior. The project translates core principles of Japanese architecture — harmony, rhythm and material honesty — into a contemporary restaurant experience. ANNA GRUSZKOWSKA ANNA GRUSZKOWSKA ANNA GRUSZKOWSKA ANNA GRUSZKOWSKA The main dining hall is organised as a calm spatial grid. Modular timber panels line the walls, defining the space through repetition and proportion. Indirect light integrated into each segment accentuates the horizontal order of the interior, creating a warm and immersive backdrop that supports focus and togetherness at the table. Above the guests, suspended... More

Clubhouse Apartment

The focal point of this apartment is the open-plan kitchen, dining and living area. We designed a compact island, a spacious dining table for 6-8 people and a cozy seating area for friendly gatherings. Ilya Ivanov Ilya Ivanov Ilya Ivanov In contrast to the spacious common area, the bedrooms are compact. To maintain a sense of openness, cabinets with transparent fronts and dark back panels were chosen, and most of the furniture was raised off the floor with brackets or elegant legs. The wall colors in these rooms are intentionally darker than in the main space - dark surfaces appear further away than light ones. This creates a smooth transition from brighter areas to darker ones without noticeably reducing the space. Ilya... More

The architecture of the complex refers to the traditions of Vladimir-Suzdal architecture, forming an ensemble with a memorable silhouette along the Moscow River. Marika Volkova LIGHTING DESIGN SOLUTIONA distinctive feature of the white stone church of Equal-to-the-Apostles Grand Duke Vladimir is the facade with textured floral patterns, thanks to which classical architecture acquired a...

AIRPORT. NOVY URENGOY

The superior comfort lounge of the new terminal of Novy Urengoy airport, designed by VOX Architects studio, helps passengers soak up the atmosphere of a unique natural phenomenon — Aurora Borealis(Northen Lights), that can now be observed not only in the night sky, but also inside the airport.Despite the fact that business lounge is on the first floor in the departure area, this space has no windows to observe a panoramic view of the flight strip. Architects team reinterpreted this significant feature and, with the help of an airy architectural volume, turned the dense darkness into the mystery of the polar night with shimmering “Northern Lights". SPACE PLANNINGThe architectural installation is not merely a decoration, it also... More
