Technology
Exceptional architecture requires an equally exceptional solution for emergency lighting. In a cinema in Innsbruck, a ceiling-high column is installed in the middle of the lobby, connecting the floors with an elegant spiral ramp. The spiral ramp was already optimally illuminated by the existing light source, but due to the heavy public traffic, additional safety lighting was required to comply with legal regulations. In order to ensure adequate lighting without over-illuminating the space, some of the existing general luminaires were to be replaced with emergency luminaires.
Our EYE-90 emergency luminaires in silver were used for this project. Their small size makes the EYE-90 the perfect emergency luminaire for unobtrusive integration and efficient illumination of the surroundings. A custom-made 3D housing for the almost invisible recessed spotlight also made installation easier – it was not even necessary to intervene in the concrete foundation of the wall. This made it possible to create a balanced atmosphere that ensures both safety and aesthetics.
Not emergency light
If there are people in the room, a clearly visible sign in front of the entrance reads "Caution: radiation". This sign warns all persons against actively using the laser indoors.
Monument protection
The installation of emergency lighting was required on a listed building in Vienna. However, according to the requirements of the monument protection authorities, no measures could be taken to integrate the emergency lighting into existing structures and walls.
