WIN Awards 2016 - Lighting Projects Category: PHILIPS Lighting Headquarters by LAVA (Laboratory for Visionary Architecture) (Eindhoven, Netherlands) Golden light shines through a canopy of leaves to create a unique gathering space in the atrium of the new Philips Lighting headquarters in Eindhoven. Intelligent lights in the parametric designed ‘tree’ generate different scenarios, boosting communication, interchange and wellbeing for staff and visitors. LAVA, with partners INBO and JHK, completed in 2016 the 10700 sqm refurbishment of the mid 20th century building for the new headquarters. The atrium, originally the central courtyard of the 1950s building, was designed as a place of welcome, way finding, branding and staff interaction, a spatially strong space embracing the innovative, people-centric values of Philips. ‘I’m a great lover of light boxes, just because of the homogenous and ambient quality of light. It’s a clever project because they have utilised natural light in the space, which appears to work extremely well also from a design prospective.’ DA

WIN Awards 2016 - Lighting Projects Category: Guinness Storehouse by Michael Grubb Studio (Dublin, Ireland) Michael Grubb Studio work on the Guinness Storehouse, Dublin, shows how lighting design can be used to reinforce and enhance a brand, tell stories and enhance architecture. It reflects a creative approach to the brief that goes wider than technical solutions and therefore delivers greater value and impact than a purely architectural lighting design solution. Given the nature of the product, celebrating darkness has been central to describing the brand. ‘This a nicely executed design with great use of colour. I love the shots of the internally illuminated clocks and the drama of the lighting within the space. It’s a clever scheme and I think Michael Grubb Studio have translated it very well.’ DA

There’s a very strong integration between the interior and lighting design. A very accomplished project.’ DA/FA

WIN Awards 2016 - Lighting Projects Category: 888 Collins Street by Ramus (Melbourne, Australia) 888 Collins is a prestigious residential development occupying the wedge where Bourke and Collins Street meet in Melbourne. The façade is flanked by soaring vertical fins, which form the focus of Ramus’ lighting design. The client brief was to articulate the architecture with light and, through that, to develop an artistic approach to the lighting design that could meet the City of Melbourne’s Public Art guidelines. In response to this we emphasized the rhythm and height created by fins on the façade by fitting each fin with custom LED fixtures. These fixtures were designed specifically to integrate seamlessly into the architecture and achieve the desired level of diffused glow. The result was a luminous skin, wrapping the façade in towering lines of light. ‘It’s the consideration of the technical execution that makes it stand head and shoulders about many of the other projects.’ PN ‘It’s not just another media façade; the control system that allows weather to determine the intensity and colour of the lights appealed to all the jury.’ DA

HIGHLY COMMENDED - WIN Awards 2016 - Lighting Projects Category: Shoal743, Fishmongers' Hall by Scabetti (London, United Kingdom) The Worshipful Company of Fishmongers is among the most ancient. In the early 14th Century, the Court of Aldermen placed the Company among the Great Twelve, a position held to this day. In 2014 the Company’s committee continued their long history of supporting artistic talent by commissioning a new light sculpture from the Staffordshire based art studio of Scabetti, founded by husband and wife duo Dominic and Frances Bromley. Shoal743 now graces the entrance foyer of the historic Hall situated on the North East side of London Bridge and creates a harmonious marriage of old and new. The golden swirl of the Shoal pays homage to the gilded interior details of the hall and its framed artifacts including the portrait of H.M. Queen Elizabeth II, painted by Pietro Annigoni. ‘The jury all agreed that Shoal743 was quite outstanding as an art piece or installation rather than an actual lighting project. However, it’s very striking in its design and construction, which is why we have awarded this project Highly Commended.’ OJ

WIN Awards 2016 - Lighting Projects Category: Gasholder No 8, King's Cross by Speirs + Major (London, United Kingdom) Located in the northern residential quarter of the King’s Cross redevelopment, Gasholder No 8 is a magnificent heritage structure that has undergone a major offsite restoration. Completed in November 2015, the structure has been repurposed as the frame for a family-oriented public pocket park and event space designed by Bell Phillips Architects. The 1590 sq. m project incorporates a new mirror polished stainless steel canopy and a landscaped lawn. As appointed lighting designers, Speirs + Major were engaged to ensure that the new ‘Gasholder Park’ would be as attractive and feel as safe and secure by night as by day. The lighting scheme is designed to make the most of the uniquely juxtaposing materiality and forms. Inspired by the unique circular layout, Speirs + Major conceived of creating a beautiful nighttime landmark and an enlivening immersive experience, based on the idea of a solar eclipse. ‘There is a very clear aesthetic choice combined with a very strong idea which is the play of light with a very dark material. The subtle line of contour gives the shape of the gasholder almost a silhouette. It is an elegant choice and an elegant design with a sculptural quality.’ FA

WIN Awards 2016 - Lighting Projects Category: Berry Bros - Sussex Cellar by Sutton Vane Associates (London, United Kingdom) The Sussex Cellar is an amazing new space designed by MJP Architects for Berry Bros & Rudd, the oldest wine merchants in the country. The amazing design by the architects has a tiled, curving vaulted ceiling over a double height space all of which is underground. A real cellar with no daylight. The lighting has to be flexible. It has to be suitable for the famous Wine School and for dining and events of all kinds. The Wine School needs higher levels of illumination to see the colours of wines. Dining needs lower levels of intimate light and for AV presentations the screens must not be lit. ‘The details are particularly nice in the scheme. Technically trying to illuminate a cellar space without the ability to recess or fix lighting can be a challenge, so they have used fiber optics in a discreet way to create a well-lit space.’ OJ

Instead, the context and the materials seem to come through in a very innovative and specific way.' JJ
