About One Excellence Phase II 建築外牆照明
卓越時代二期係一個為中國深圳一座大型商業綜合體而設嘅建築外牆照明設計項目。呢座大廈高約300米,外牆被玻璃幕牆覆蓋。設計團隊選用簡約嘅白光,以突顯塔樓嘅結構線條。定製燈具被隱藏並嵌入幕牆內部,用嚟精準控制光線嘅投射方向。垂直交錯嘅光影重現咗日間陽光照射所形成嘅明暗圖案。最終效果令呢座建築喺夜晚呈現出寧靜而富有韻律感嘅外觀。

In lighting design style, embedded light was hidden in curtain wall with customized lamps controlling whole lighting system so to achieve a simplicity also a graceful, vertical linearity with movement just like breathing.
