Monument protection
Many buildings are listed – this sometimes makes flexibility and unrestricted processing difficult. The requirement for this project was that deep-beam emergency lighting was needed and that no additional holes or interventions in the masonry were permitted due to the listed building status.
A solution therefore had to be found that combined monument protection and modern emergency lighting without having to interfere with the historic masonry.
A solution with our EYE Pro was developed in collaboration with a lighting designer and our special luminaire construction department: 3 EYE Pro units were mounted at an angle of 5° on a white painted mounting plate facing outwards through the wire suspension of the existing spherical luminaire.
Ideally, the existing hole in the chandelier could be used, so there is now a fixture with integrated emergency lighting directly above the chandelier.
Monument protection
Structural changes to the railing were not permitted. Nevertheless, emergency lighting up to the assembly point was required by law. The circumstances therefore not only required careful planning, but ultimately also the approval of the authorities and the heritage office.
Architectural
The special thing about this project was the solution for installing the electronics. To this end, holes were drilled in the sheet metal ceiling into which the electronics could be integrated while remaining invisible from the outside.
