Helix Bridge, the spiral bridge inspired by the structure of DNA - 4.2010
The futuristic Helix Bridge marks an important step in the development of Marina Bay and has become a milestone for Singapore, both from an engineering and architectural point of view, as the first example of using a double helix structural solution for a bridge. At present, nothing compares to this structure.
Brussels office of the Dexia Group
Lighting for the Dexia Group offices was the first global installation where the façades of a building were seen as enormous screens, the largest system ever created, controlled by DMX cables. Each individual window was lit with an RGB Ath-Luxor custom LED strip.
Rundle Lantern - Adelaide, Australia - 2008
A display of one thousand square metres made up of 713 “tiles”, each one lit by a pair of spacecannon Bisquit custom RGB LED strips for a total of 1428 units, surround the large building in the centre of Adelaide as a permanent fixture, like a sort of dynamic and luminous canvas. The vision of designer Damien Mair for the Lantern “was that of creating an experience which would capture the city’s imagination and add beauty to people’s lives”.
Altarpiece by Ghirlandaio - Narni, Italy - 2007
The impressive altarpiece by Domenico Bigordi, better known as Ghirlandaio, is one of the greatest Renaissance masterpieces. The coming together of art and lighting brings a new way of interpreting the artwork: the lighting of various well-defined areas can be controlled via a console, as a guide to understanding the composition.
The Pope's Podium - Rome, Italy - 2007
PODIUM, the new mobile dais for Pope Benedict XVI, the roof of which houses 196 lights. A lightweight and minimalist, recessed and white light LED spotlight, “Benedictus”, was designed specially for the purpose. This small 10 W product is the quintessence of cutting-edge technology and high quality.
