Eni VI Palazzo, Italy
The VI Palazzo is envisioned as the tradition of its own history while
imagining the future. The research on new renewable energies are
at the center of the project. The integration of a smart grid enables
the building to input energy, improving the quality of life of both
workers and inhabitants of the surrounding neighbourhoods.
39. Hanjie Wanda Square, China
The facade design for the luxury shopping plaza, in Wuhan City, focuses on achieving a dynamic effect. The architectural lighting is
integrated into the building envelope’s 42.333 spheres. Within each sphere LED-fixtures emit light onto the laminated glass to generate
glowing circular spots. Simultaneously a second set of LED’s at the rear side of the spheres create a diffuse illumination on the back panels.
A total of 3100000 LED lights where used to cover the 17894 sq.m. media facade. Various possibilities to combine and control these lights
allows diverse media lighting effects and programming of lighting sequences related to the use and activation of the Hanjie Wanda Square.
