About Glass Library 도서관 조명 디자인

글라스 라이브러리(Glass Library)는 3개 층으로 분할된 유리 건물 내부에 자리한 도서관을 위한 조명 계획이다. 앰비언트 조명은 부드럽고 균일하게 유지되어 자연광이 변화하는 동안에도 편안한 독서 환경을 제공한다. 매달린 스틸 봉 내부에 은폐된 LED 스트립은 흐르는 듯한 후광을 만들어낸다. 바닥에 매입된 업라이트는 기둥과 특징적인 벽면을 강조하며, 맞춤 제작된 매입형 액센트 조명은 전시물을 돋보이게 한다. 디밍 시스템을 적용할 수 없었기에, 유리 커튼월 인근에 설치된 광센서가 주간 실내 조도를 균형 있게 조절한다.

Unique Properties
The brilliancy of this split-level glass structure lies in the suppleness of ambience lighting; its coziness is always attracting visitors and external light intensity change will not hinder ample lighting for reading.” Visitors comment.
Detailed effort has lavishly drained into preciseness and appropriateness in selecting the right kind and number of lighting utensils, theirs light intensity and the angles of beams. A combination of skills, creativity and experiences. The application of Confucius philosophy: be moderate. No more, no less. Besides, various skills are used to hold up direct sunlight and other strong light source in order to built-in a subtle and tranquil atmosphere. Therefore, external weather condition will not overwhelming the interior lighting.
Entrusting the museum’s ambience, this dramatic treatment catches the eyes for interesting ornaments: the giant snowman, the cat and the plant shades. Senses arouse.

Production Technology
Burial uplight to express the solemnity of the column and feature wall that extend through the three split levels and at the same time it enhances their texture. Custom made recessed accent lighting for enhance all the artifacts.
Design Challenge
Constraints are that the external glass structure gives rise to the aesthetic issue in providing electricity for lighting, supple lighting covering the spacious and non-partitioned three split levels construction and budget constraint that banned the usage of dimming system which caused the difficulties on balanced of light intensity. Also, the project is mounting the accent light inside the 60mmx55mm height steel rod, the custom made fixture to achieve the hierarchy effect perfectly for aim of high transparency purpose. Blend of aesthetic treatment and practicality.
Research
They are aiming to eliminate the “old rules” of traditional public building space forms for an exquisite unique library building that brings harmony to the public community.
During on the design stages, the project emphasized the functionality and aesthetic of the project space itself.
Following the above design goals, they have structured the building into a translucent glass boxes with three different split-levels, the four-sided glass curtains enclosed the sense of transparency which bought by the spacious.
In order to avoid and control the direct daylight refracted into the interior spaces , a photo-sensor has placed along the window areas to balancing the lighting intensity of lux levels of overall ambient during the daytime.
Through a tremendous data calculation and collection by Dialux software & on-site investigation for the analysis of the lighting design environment.
Inspiration
In order to fulfill the dual goals, a sales office and later as a library. The common key point is coziness: a place which one will lingers. The fixtures and furnishings are from the physical world, while mood and tone will dive deep to tickle our soul. The magic spell for this connection is "Light".
This creates the sense of being connected to the external world while enjoying the serenity and revitalizes our interests to explore. A state of Zen.

As in Hemingway’s “A Clean, Well-Lighted Place”, there is always a place for the hustle-and-bustle people to catch up with serenity. The way that revives flagging city spirits.
